Monthly Rentals in Penang Island

All the facilities provided by the homestay were excellent and easy to access food restaurants. The lacking point was near to highway and a little bit noisy if didn't lock up the window.

Tang was a great host. We really loved this place. The price was right so we didn't expect much. But we really loved the place and the neighborhood. The wifi was super fast (we are nomads), the kitchen was fully equipped. We only needed 1 bedroom but there were three. The AC works great and the water pressure is great and hot. This is local living in Malaysia (TOTALLY SAFE). We were curious what local living would be like here in Georgetown so we rented for a month. There are several markets and restaurants right in the building. You never need to cook if you don't want but the kitchen is equipped if you do. The best thing is ... this neighborhood is walkable to colonial-era Georgetown if that is why you are here. And there is a mall just a few blocks away (and a gym). We love local living! We will be back to see Tang and his cute little apartment wherever we are in Georgetown. The photos tell the whole story. You get what you see. We loved this place!

Zoe’s place was overall very good. Very well equipped and spacious. Comfy sofa and bed. Lovely views - you can see the sea and cruise ships coming in! Large fridge and freezer. Everything worked well. Shower was strong and hot. Zoe was great at communicating with us on whatapp & check in was a breeze! Things that were out of Zoe’s control - the neighbours upstairs were very loud. On the first day there was construction directly above us, so much so I could smell the dust. But this luckily was only 1-day as it was then public holiday. They also were quite noisy moving chairs and furniture late at night around 11:30/12pm so we had to wear ear plugs. Maybe just check with Zoe the dates of construction so you don’t get a nasty surprise at your stay! Pool was very very cold, like a plunge pool, as it sits in the shade all day. As a little tip - would be fab to have a bigger duvet as it was too small for the bed and a mirror outside of the bathroom as it was a little dark!

We feel that in Penang this location is excellent! There is a grocery store, lots of coffee/tea shops, shopping and many great restaurants! Christine’s place was in a good location within the complex and had a nice view looking at the pool. The hosts were great, meeting us at the apartment when we arrived and showing us how things worked! The weather was great as well and the locals are very friendly and helpful! We had a great month there
