Maria, the guest was extremely friendly and helpful. I had a cold during my stay and she got me some throat medicine and always asked whether I'm feeling better and if we need anything. She noticed my wife likes fruit so she brought some from her father in law's garden as a gift. The whole place was immaculately clean and tidy.

The ecstatics of it. Really good place for people wanting to experience living in the original living space of a Malaccan. Loved the concept like it is a hidden hotel as it is being access via a bakery.

    My husband and I have been to many guesthouses around the world, but this one is definitely at the top of our list. Our hosts are such lovely people, Maria's banana cake and biscuits are world champions, but most importantly we felt at home from the first moment we arrived. The guest house is very well located, 5 minutes from the centre, 1-1 minutes from supermarkets, local market and eateries (authentic Indian, Chinese, Malay restaurants). We had a great time and thank you for everything.

    Great location by the river - right next door to the Shore shopping mall, and only 10-15 minutes walk to Jonker walk and other tourist attractions. Plenty of restaurants and 24hr eateries nearby. A beautiful, modern and clean 3 bedroom apartment. Perfect for our group of 6. Amenities include full kitchen and washing machine. Beautiful view of the night lights by the river from the balcony. Lily was a great host and was very welcoming - a little welcome sign on the blackboard was a nice touch. Loved our stay here and would highly recommend!

    Wonderful guesthouse in an excellent location, close to the main turistic sites in Melaka. Clean and quiet to allow you rest very well. Kindest hosts, with tons of advices, suggestions and tricks to enjoy your stay in the city to the maximum. If you still have some time left you can spend some time chatting or reading in the big living room of the guest house.

    A real guesthouse feeling with cosy rooms and a common place to relax, talk. The host Willy is very welcoming and makes you feel at home. Close to the city center (only 10min walk) and quiet at night. Big plus are the nice eating options in the area both for breakfast and dinner. We had a lovely time and will definitely return if in Melakka again.

    All good. No windows, so it's a quiet peaceful room in a clean and tidy guesthouse in a great location close to the heart of Malacca. Jo is a friendly and helpful host and tea/coffee/toast is there for breakfast if you want it.

    It's a self check in and a very easy one. The host really helpful because I checked in a bit late at night and didn't found the guesthouse. The room looks classic and traditional - I love it. The room also huge. There's a nice breakfast shop near guest house Sayyid Antique & Cafe 1 min walking distance. It's cheap and delicious too. Jonker street also near, can just walk around to main attractions.
