Situated in George Town, 2.4 km from Northam Beach and 600 metres from 1st Avenue Penang, Melayu Villa by Aayu - 8 mins walk to Armenian St features accommodation with free WiFi, air conditioning, a garden and a shared lounge. The property features inner courtyard and quiet street views, and is less than 1 km from Rainbow Skywalk at Komtar. The guest house has family rooms. It was very central, so easy to walk everywhere and I enjoyed the older architecture. The staff was incredibly helpful, allowing us to check in a couple hours early and giving us great suggestions on what to experience. I appreciated the ease of communication through WhatsApp, sending check-in instructions the day before and being available anytime during the stay if we had questions.

Located 2.5 km from Northam Beach, Heritage Villa by Aayu - 10 mins walk to Armenian St in George Town provides rooms with air conditioning and free WiFi. The property features quiet street views and is 700 metres from 1st Avenue Penang and 800 metres from Wonderfood Museum. The accommodation offers a housekeeping service and a shared lounge for guests. Loved my stay. The room was basic but perfectly functional and very clean. Great location and very friendly staff. I originally booked the room with the shared bathroom (it was always clean and only shared with one other room). Due to becoming ill I asked if I could switch to a room with a private bathroom and pay the extra, this was arranged very quickly and the team even offered to get me medicine if i needed it. Thanks for a wonderful stay!
