The staff are lovely, and the place feels like a family home. They treat guests as part of the family, and playing with the cats was really nice. I honestly wondered why there weren't more guests staying here. A top sheet or light blanket in the dorm rooms would help. Westerners are more used to having a layer over them while sleeping, though it wasn't an issue in the private suites. Sometimes street smells and manure get into the house, but they run lots of fans in the main areas to keep it at bay.

The staff were welcoming, and I enjoyed staying here. It's within walking distance of all the main attractions, and the place was safe and relatively clean. The washrooms could use better maintenance. Some guests don't keep them clean, and staff should pay closer attention to that. I hope to visit again when I'm in Melaka.
We stayed in a private room, which was comfy and had great AC. The rooms and bathrooms were super clean, and they offer laundry service. The owner was very friendly and helpful, and you can cuddle the cats if you like! The location couldn't be better, right around the corner from Jonker street and close to dutch square and restaurants. The street gets a bit noisy, but we slept through it easily, even on the weekend. Best place to stay in Malaca!
The dorm room I stayed in was small, but nice and clean, and the rooms and bathroom were clean too. The location is perfect, right next to Jonker street market. The owners and staff are so sweet and incredibly helpful, and I'm glad I chose this place. There's a cute cat hotel downstairs where you can see the cats, since they're not allowed upstairs.
The team were kind and welcoming, and the prices were reasonable. The place seemed brand new and was almost in perfect condition. I even had the whole dormitory to myself. It's in a great location, but outside noise at night wasn't a problem. Definitely a great stay!
