As I stayed there, I could say that the place was fit for me as a solo backpack. I stayed in 4-female dorm room. It's walk-able to the famous places in Malacca. Warm welcome and clean room were the highlight of my staying here.

The location is okay. Easy to get everywhere. Close to the Melaka River Cruise. The room was decent, but there was no window. Even though there was a fan, it was still hot. The problem was the water in the bathroom. There was a little, but then it stopped flowing. I thought it was just the afternoon when I checked in. But it didn't flow until that evening and the next morning. Oops. It was hot, even though there was a fan. There was no water in the bathrooms on all floors.

The location is very strategic, not far from popular tourist attractions. The staff is very friendly and helpful. Yesterday, we booked a dorm for 8 people, but we only had 6. The room was quite neat and clean, cool with air conditioning and a fan. The toilet and bathroom were quite clean and adequate. There was a washing machine and kitchen facilities. The downsides were the stairs, and the reception area was separate from the rooms. The reception area was extremely deplorable: dirty, dusty, messy, disheveled, and scary. Plus, there were pets roaming around. But overall, it was very good, and I highly recommend staying here.

Certificate of boarding house fell down. It's better to call first before arriving. Because there is no receptionist. And when you get there you're a bit confused because the place is different from the photo 😄. Strategy 'near where' for those with a low budget.

Cheap, comfortable and good enough. I reviewed it for another booking, dorm anyway. We’ve got the front room, so it’s too noisy whenever anybody passed it. 1 more, the wifi password gotta change each day. If i’m not mistaken
