The hostel is quite close to several tourist destinations. The staff is friendly, the lobby is clean. The rooms are quite clean, but the upper bunk feels quite dangerous to sleep on because the iron railing is quite high for some body types and can cause falls. The bathroom is clean and soap and shampoo are provided.

My stay here was very pleasant. It has been the second time I have stayed and remained comfortable even though one room consists of 8 people, mostly foreign tourists and they are welcoming and friendly. Lounge facilities are also very comfortable and clean. Clean bathroom. In the lobby there are also various brochures about the city of Penang which are very informative and useful for tourists. Wifi facilities also function well. Strategic location and passed by public transportation. I would love to stay here when visiting Penang the other day

Coming here just sleeping overnight, coming late at night and checking out early, I sleep in a dorm that has 1 room, 8 people, clean mattress, clean bathroom, okay according to price, each mattress has 1 socket and a lamp, under the bed there is a box to put our things and there is a slot. Don't forget to bring a padlock if you want to put valuables so you feel more secure.

Hotel location very strategic. You can walk to the chowrasta market. There you can shopping & drink the famous ais tingkap @ air sarbat, recommended. You can eat breakfast at the transfer road roti canai,very recommended,just need to walk from the hotel. Hungry at night? No worries lah,beside the hotel there is a small gerai called gerai abdul hamid.you must try the rectangular kuih,so yummy. Nasi goreng also yummy there lah. There is parking lot in front of the hotel. During the day you need to pay for it.just ask guidance from the receptionist. The room is spacious. Also have extra mattress. But the towel has old stained. I hope the hotel will change the towel. Please buy the new one la. Throw away old stained towel. The bed sheet & pillow cover also have stained. The bathroom is a bit dirty. Overall I enjoyed staying there despute some issue. Hope the hotel will upgrade more.ps before you book the hotel please read the details. All room have to share bathroom.

For penang and solo backpacking it's been 2 times staying at tido hostel. The place is strategic, near the hostel if there is a nasi lemak breakfast place and other things typical of Malaysia, if the night is close to culinary too. There is a self-service laundry place next to the hostel, the hostel is clean, comfortable and the wifi is very fast on the top floor where breakfast is comfortable, mineral water is sufficient.

The wrong purchase initially thought the private room and private bathroom had to read the detailed description if it was a shared bathroom. Finally buying 2 nights was only used for one night, less detail in the title.
