Rough Guide "This excellent travellers’ choice in a great location has rooms... around an atmospheric skylight. The shared bathrooms have cold showers only, but there is a good communal area downstairs with wi-fi."
Lonely Planet "An arty boho vibe in the common areas and a tranquil, whitewashed courtyard give this budget guesthouse a bit of an edge. Guests can rent bikes for a bargain RM5 a day, too." Full review
