Very nice location. The bed was comfy and the bathroom was clean. The room has a wardrobe. Thanks!
Nothing
Super emplacement, chambre avec intimité, douche avec eau chaude. Grand casier dans les chambres.
Il n’y a pas d’air dans l’espace commune, il fait super chaud et je n’ai pas pu travailler. Les douches et salles de bain sont au dessus de la cuisine de la pizzeria.
Room was ok. There is a kitchen/ living room area where you can sit and have a coffee or hang out. Location is good, near to the ferry and all the attractions.
The walls are paper-thin, so if you have a noisy neighbor, you can hear everything. During the night I heard strange noises, like an animal (some kind of bird, idk), from the room next to mine.
This place was so much better than expected. Everything was spotlessly clean. There are just 10 little pods so it never felt crowded. Don't forget that you booked a POD. It will be small, so don't complain about the size, but it's big enough. It's an excellent choice for solo travellers and having my own full height walk in private room made a nice change from dormitories. Everything is well thought through here, and the room was cozy, practical and very comfortable. A quality towel was supplied as well. Somehow they have managed to fit a closet with foldable clothes hangers and a bed table with a lamp on as well in the room. The common bathrooms were excellent and always clean. The Aircon is in the corridor and an extractor fan brings it into your room. There's also a regular fan in the room. Very good air quality, and if you get rained at during the day, everything will dry up overnight. The common sitting area was very nice. It also had a free hot and cold water dispenser, a fridge and a microwave. The pizza restaurant downstairs was excellent. All the information on Booking.com was correct. Excellent WiFi and excellent location just a few min walk from the ferry and the bus station. Friendly English speaking staff.
It was nothing I didn't like.
I stayed at Victoria Pods for several nights while exploring George Town and found it to be a great budget option. The location is excellent, walking distance to Little India, street art, hawker food and the ferry area. The pods were comfortable and reasonably quiet for a hostel-style setup, and I slept well. Bathrooms and common areas were clean and the place felt organised. Staff were friendly and helpful. If you want affordable accommodation in a very central location, this is a solid choice.
Privatzimmer war klein, aber privat 😊 Klimaanlage gibt es nur im Flur, aber durch Ventilator und Lüftung im Zimmer war die Temperatur angenehm und nie zu heiß. Ich fand die Dusche und das Waschbecken, trotz dass es von vielen genutzt wird, sehr sauber. Auch der Gemeinschaftsraum ist toll. Es gibt kalt und heiß Wasserspender. War auch ruhig obwohl viele Zimmer nebeneinander.
Malgré le fait que ma chambre était déjà occupée, on m’a offert une boisson et une pizza pour se faire pardonner ainsi que le remboursement de ma réservation.
Quand je suis arrivée, on m’annonce que ma chambre a été occupé par quelqu’un car problème dans les réservations. Je me suis donc retrouvée à la rue à 21h avec l’obligation de chercher rapidement un autre logement.
Simple and easy
Staff is very polite and kind, price is reasonable.
Nice pods, nice facilities, restaurant below also had good food and staff were all very helpful and friendly. Location is perfect, especially if you need to go to Butterworth as the ferry is a 2 min walk
Nothing
Alles perfekt. Freundliches und hilfsbereite Angestellte. Ruhige und zentrale Lage. Kein Strassenlärm. Gute Klimaanlage.
Kleine Zimmer ohne Fenster. War aber trotzdem ok für mich.
The staff were super nice. Arrived late. Yet they were very accommodating. Place is nice for solo travellers. A place for rest, wash and park the bags.
Location central. Standard and cleanliness also ok.
Very strange and impersonal check-in, which happened in the pizza-joint downstairs. No internet overview of the bookings, very amateurish. No personal service, tips or anything like that. I would say this place is overrated on Booking.
Hospitality, ease to check-in, cleanliness. They even easily accommodated my stay extension.
Centrum parking for moto
Very small
位置特别棒,早起做轮渡非常方便。
提前告知凌晨入住,在得到同意后,实际到场电话联系无人接听。
It’s cleanliness and privacy
Its perfect nothing to change
Nice to have own space. Nice living room
Not the most social place when I was there
Greatt staff, very clean, quiet from outside noise. Well furnished common room.
Doors for rooms are a bit noisy and the automated hallway lights are really bright and coffee on a lot. Air con is in the hallway and need to use an extraction fan to draw it into your room which is a bit noisy and let's the light in from the hallway lights. Smoking section is it the front of the pizza shop which closes at 10.
拥有个人空间,性价比高,给我选择我还是会选
电会一直跳,应该是太多人住了导致电压太大?希望下次去已经够解决好了!
Simple nice room, good location and very friendly staff from the Pizza place downstairs.
The walls are really thin so if somebody is noise sensitive better bring earplugs.
Great for solo travel on a budget. Excellent location, good value for money. Rooms are small but we'll ventilated/temp controlled and larger than hostel pods.
L'emplacement dans la ville et à 5 minutes à pied du ferry est super. L'endroit est simple et petit mais avec tout ce qu'il faut ! Facile à trouver, wifi qui fonctionne bien, accueil fait par le personnel de la pizzeria en dessous.
A savoir, il n'y a qu'un toilette et une douche par genre
The location is very conveniently located to most of the iconic Penang sites as well as famous restaurants. Was able to walk to most places without any trouble. Nice, clean and modern facilities such as shared kitchen, bathroom, water dispenser, microwave as well as laundry and dryer which is also available in downstairs restaurant for a small fee.
Doors were a hard to open and lock but otherwise nothing else.
Very central but quiet, it was like a hostel but better as your own private space, it had a wardrobe , light and table anything you could need just in a small space
I felt really uncomfortable as a lady travelling alone as the guy that took me to the room just stood staring and wouldn’t leave the room, I asked him to leave so I could shut the door, I went to the bathroom and he was hanging infront of my door and done the same again it made me feel really uncomfortable I got quite annoyed the second time. It was such a shame as the guy at check in was very friendly and it was a nice place
It's a flat above the pizza place, a long corridor with 10 single pods divided by stud walls and 2 toilets/2 showers, it's spotless, great quality mattresses and bedding, towel also, very quiet. Each pod has a fan and and extractor fan to let the cold in from the AC units in the allway. Amazing location, in the heart of old Georgetown, 10 minutes walk from the ferry terminal also. There's no reception, they pizza place guys are responsible for it and some of them live there too, they're lovely, it's safe. Great value for money, would definitely stay again
The living area is cosy but unusable cause the AC doesn't work there and it's melting hot, nobody ever uses it
清潔でスタッフもフレンドリーなところ。一泊延長をお願いしたら、快く受け入れてくれた。メッセージの返信も早くて本当に助かった。 個室もちょうど良い広さで快適だった。シャワールーム、トイレも綺麗で文句なしです!
見当たりませんでした!
The staff is so nice. The location is superb.
A locker near the bathroom isn't so practical. It's made of wood and quite heavy, and we have to open the locker in the direction from bottom to top, not left to right or right to left as usual.
Fonctionnel, propre et pratique si vous voulez un espace individuel sans payer trop cher. En revanche ça n’a pas du tout une vibe d’hostel, c’est un couloir avec des mini-chambres et c’est tout ! Donc si vous rechercher du social/chaleureux je déconseille
How clean the room are , the staff super kind and helpful , the position
The perfect location!
Location was excellent within walking distance of everything in Georgetown. The space was small but cozy and the housemates were nice.
The bathroom side was weird...and way too hot and humid. Also being a shared place, the common area could use a TV and some tea/coffee and sugar for guests
Great location for a great price, nice social area. Ideal if you want a private room but hostel style.
The beds were pretty uncomfortable
With 3 sqm you know what you get and it was surprisingly comfortable. Very clean, well maintained and the staff is lovely. Great location. Nice living room + fridge and microwave. Had a perfect stay.
I love it so much, very strategic location close to nearby restaurant, cafe, Jetty, petrol station, convenience store and walking distance to Masjid Jamek. Below has their own pizza restaurant. The staff was very friendly and considerate for check in and check out hours.I stayed for 3 night never regret a bit. Love the minimalist concept yet have no problem to stay comfortably.
No water dispenser for hot water drink. The sliding door may sometime faulty and not able to lock properly.
Location was great, right near all the hustle and bustle. Staff were superb and friendly and helpful. Above a nice looking pizza place, I didn’t try as I tend to eat local but it looked nice.
There was virtually nobody in the hostel yet the few people who did just continually slammed doors, and considering the walls and doors are super thin, there is no getting away from inconsiderate people, having said that the doors were very poorly designed with no actual handles so unless they are told how to use them guests wouldn’t have the sense. It said tea and coffee making facilities but there was non available so that needs changing. The rooms were like COFFINS, I mean they are perfectly fine as single rooms but they are really small. Wi-Fi was terrible in the hall way, although it did work better in the lounge. No place to leave keys on early checkout so had to just leave in my room. Overall for the price paid it wasn’t really good value compared to surrounding prices and I wouldn’t use again, but it was not a bad stay just lacking in areas.
Convenient, quiet location in historic area. Easy walk to nearby cafes, restaurants, wharf/bus station and food markets. Nice, gentle and helpful staff on hand to help. Made it so easy. Allowed me to check in early. Very clean, quiet and modern accommodation. Clean towel and bedding. Firm, but comfortable single bed and pillow. Everything feels quite new and fresh. Good lighting in room. Very hot showers with good water pressure. Lovely cold aircon in common hallway area, a switchable fan driven vent to let the cold aircon air into your bedroom (can be shut off if needed) plus a big fan in each room. The room is small but it is great for a good and peaceful night's sleep. I am a very light sleeper and always feel too warm, so this room was perfect for me. Bedrooms have a keyed lock plus there is an external locker if you need it. Each room has a small wardrobe, bedside light, power outlet and bedside table. There is a handy hook on the wardrobe to hang up your towel. The building is secure with an electronic swipe to let yourself into the building. A nice common area/lounge room with books and a fridge with bottles of drinking water. A pizza restaurant below serves quality food and drinks. Handy! One of the best hostels I have stayed in!
Something to keep in mind if it is busy there is only one toilet and shower for each gender. Luckily when I stayed, it was quiet, so it was not a problem. Some paper towels to dry hands would be a suggestion for an improvement only! :)
The location is amazing And the staff and pizza place is fabulous
Great location, the accomodation is very new and they did a great job. The stuff is very friendly & helpfull. The room is small, but it is everything you need. Also the pizza's from the restaurant down the accomodation are very good (it's from the same owner). I would come back here.
Very central location
Everything was fine
It's a brand new place to stay! The location is perfect, nearby the busterminal, jetty, Chuliastreet.... To enter the first floor you use a badge. System works perfect. The room is cozy, colorfull painted walls. perfect bed, 2 types of pillows. You can recharge items in your room. Small storage inside the room A fan inside & airco-system in the hall thats cooling the room down. Did the job! Seperat shower for man/woman also the toilets. Great waterpressure. Hot water available. Lockers works with a key. A nice area so sit, relax, ..is on the streetside. Books available. A fridge ready to use... Extra tip: are you hungry...go downstairs and taste the amazing pizza/dessert at "Otto Pizza" =same owner!!!! Staff is friendly & helpfull.
The location is absolutely unbeatable - right in the center of Georgetown's heritage zone with easy walking access to all the main attractions and food spots. The property was impressively clean and well-maintained. The staff were exceptionally friendly and welcoming, always ready to help. I particularly enjoyed spending time in the common area where I had the chance to meet and chat with other interesting travelers. Having access to a shared kitchen was also a nice touch.
There wasn't anything significant that detracted from the experience.
I had a great stay at this hotel in George Town! The staff were so friendly and always ready to help. My room was super comfortable and clean. The highlight of my stay was definitely the restaurant downstairs, pizza Siciliana is a must try!
The hotel is located in the heart of the town in the heritage building. Wonderful!!!
Rooms are clean, friendly staff, and wifi connection is great/fast
The location is absolutely fantastic—right in the heart of Georgetown, putting you within walking distance of all the sights, restaurants, and attractions you want to explore. The common areas were clean, well-maintained and providing plenty of space to relax and unwind after a day of exploring. The restaurant downstairs was a definite highlight. They have happy hour and delicious pizzas, adding an extra touch of enjoyment to our stay. Overall, it was a great experience. I highly recommend Victoria Pods to anyone looking for an enjoyable stay in Georgetown!
I stayed for one night, and the location was fantastic! It's in Georgetown's centre and everything you want to see is nearby. The room was spacious enough for two of us, and the bunk beds were stable (we were worried they would be creaking). Common areas were clean and spacious. Downstairs they have a restaurant that makes fantastic cocktails and pizzas. overall a super stay!
Excellent stay! It's new, clean and comfortable. Location is very good, just few mins walk to Armenian Street and near to town area. Staff was helpful and friendly. And most convenient for me is the restaurant downstairs which served very good Italian pizza & pasta where i can just grab and go!.
Fantastic location in the middle of the heritage zone of Georgetown and as a bonus a great Italian restaurant downstairs. Easy check in and the place is clean and safe.
That I only stayed one night big mistake
