Original Pre-war Heritage Shophouse in the oldest street in Malaysia. Within walking distance to STREET FOOD STALLS, STREET ARTS, nightlife hang-outs and HISTORIC SITES.
Most heritage buildings were not constructed to cope with the level of noise in the 21st century (they were constructed with lightweight materials such as timber framing with lath and plaster wall linings etc). There is nothing much we could do about it as any interventions which alter the authenticity of a heritage building is strictly prohibited by the local council. Hence,
1) do expect traffic sound (even in the middle of the night) as we are in the middle of the town - to overcome this problem, we will provide our guests with free sterile earplugs.
2) There is a fire station opposite and they will make morning announcements by 8 am. Great for those planning to wake up early, but if you are not a morning person, and plan to wake up late, this place is not for you. But hey, we would suggest you to WAKE UP early and explore the town in the morning! That's when you enjoy the beauty - without getting burnt by the sun!
3) We provide our guests with 'pocket WiFi' with 1 GB quota (sufficient for light surfing, GPS etc).
4) Wooden timber flooring - walk on gently
5) Our kitchen is not meant for those who are looking to cook heavy meals. We do not encourage the use of fire in the building, as a big part of it is wooden. Do let us know in advance if you need a hotplate, to warm up your food.
6) We are not some exclusive heritage homes or hotels - We are Airbnb operators i.e., some locals providing you a stay in an authentic heritage home in the middle of the town
