Absolutely loved the hospitality of the host he gave us a lot of recommendations on where to visit. The place was super clean! The location was ideal, especially cuz it is seconds away from Kapitan (our favorite restaurant in Penang). Absolutely love the cats, Garfield and Bobby. Such a homely place

Excellent location (right in the heart of Georgetown).. Howie and Amith were super amazing hosts. Howie is very friendly and was always there to accompany the guests. He took us to the arts fair and to the Gurdwara. He further suggested the attractions. I am absolutely impressed by his personality.
