We enjoyed our stay in iStay. Their hospitality is remarkable. The location is superb, especially for culinary experiences. Some hospitals can be reached within 15-20 minutes by walking or around five minutes using car. The TV channels are good and can be connected to YouTube and Netflix.

The hotel staff is super friendly 👍. This is the first time I've had a hotel with such satisfying service. The room and bed are clean, comfortable, 4 pillows are given, and they are still soft. Recommended. I will come here again next time.

A pleasant lobby with a Chinese Peranakan atmosphere, suitable for working. The room is comfortable, more than adequate for many outdoor activities. The bathroom is a bit small, but the hot water and shower are good. There is a bidet available, although it uses a hose. The hotel provides coin laundry facilities (also available for public use) and is within walking distance to many Penang culinary destinations, with 100 Penang Fast Food being our favorite.

The hotel's location is quite strategic, and the price is quite reasonable. However, the air conditioning in the room can't be adjusted, and there's a TV, but it doesn't have any channels.

It would be much more helpful if the hotel had an elevator to the second floor. Hair dryers, soap, and shower caps are provided. The rooms are comfortable. The hotel's location is excellent, close to convenience stores and a food court. A self-service laundry facility is under construction next to the hotel lobby.
