Bed was clean, and common area was nice, but the toilets on the first floor were disgusting... a lot of flies and cockroaches...

breakfast was ok, nothing special, but anytime coffee/tea and cookies was nice.

They close doors after 21:00, so if you check in after 21:00, you need to contact them, otherwise you will not be able to come in(maybe someone open door, but can’t be sure)?

Private room

+ nice ground floor shared area with water cooler, tea, coffee
- shared toilets/showers in poor condition.
- very thin walls (or closed connecting door between rooms) so you can hear every word your loud Neighbours say
- power failure late evening leading to stuff turning on and off repeatedly one night

I love how helpful and accommodating they are. I was a bit bummed that our room didn't have a window (made me feel a bit claustrophobic), but since we spent most of our times outside, it didn't matter much. It was an overall a very pleasant experience and I'd definitely recommend them.

Cheap and cheerful

Overall it was a great stay here. We stayed for four nights after initially booking three, really easy to add another night and the owner let us stay in the same room which was really helpful. The room was small but clean. Shared bathrooms are fine, could do with a thorough clean but I imagine it’s hard in a place like this. Ac and a fan in the room, so good that it actually felt cold at night. Great location in terms of walking distance to places. Owner was really friendly and helpful: there was heavy rainfall and he was stood at the door making sure people were safe walking past in the floods. Also, he helped us book our boat tickets to Langkawi and got them to us saving us a trip to the ferry port. I would stay here again in Georgetown.

One Night Stay at Muntri House

I forgot the gentleman's name who helped check me in but he was very helpful and knowledgeable in showing me how to use the key to lock and let myself in after hours and providing maps and suggestions on the best places to eat. Shirely/Charleen? was very friendly and helpful in calling an uber for me as well as making sure I had maps to check out the street arts and eateries.
Muntri House was cozy and I stayed on the 2nd floor in a double bed. Very clean and large size with AC and fan. I found the WI-FI to be strong and consistent. Bathrooms were separate and semi-outside. There were 4 of them that was combo shower/toilet and hair dryer was provided.
Great location and easy walk to all points of interests. When I return to stay longer in Georgetown, I will be sure to go back to Muntri House.

Great find!

Hotel staff are fantastic here, so friendly and always happy to help out with tips and advice. Map of street food & street art is a nice touch at check in.
Bed is the comfiest we've stayed in over the last 2 months travelling SE Asia. Room is small & basic, but everything you need for a comfortable night sleep. A/C & fan both work well.
Shared toilets & showers are fine, has both hot & cold water. Pretty clean, just showing a little wear and tear but were fine for us. Hairdryer and iron also readily available.
Breakfast included is toast with variety of spreads - basic but fine and especially considering the price of the rooms. Water refills available in lobby area, and free tea & coffee all day.
Highly recommend!!

Wonderful guesthouse full of heritage and charm!

Myself and my partner stayed at Muntri House for 10 nights in total (three nights the first time, but decided to come back again a week or so later for a further seven nights because we liked it so much!) We felt the accommodation was such good value for what it was - it was a historical Chinese clanhouse with plenty of character within, which included breakfast each morning (toast with peanut butter and jam, as well as coffee/tea options to choose from, which was fine for us), Wi-Fi that worked very well on both floors, a hot & cold water dispenser, and the location was perfectly central for easy walking to local restaurants, attractions, shops, a launderette, and of course the street art Georgetown is so famous for! The staff were very friendly, helpful and hospitable, and were happy to provide us with lots of information relating to local transport and places of interest. Leaflets and maps were provided to us as well, which were very much appreciated. The bathrooms were cleaned daily and the place was very well-kept too. Thanks so much for a lovely stay - we'd definitely recommend this guesthouse to anyone staying in Georgetown, and hope to come back again ourselves someday! :)

HERITAGE STAY WITH HEART!

Heritage stay, old Chinese architecture, Google Dr Sun Yat Sen... this old house was host to the founder of the Republic of China, a long time ago!

Family run business, very nice boss, wife and son. There was a double booking since it was peak season. The boss offered to upgrade me from a dorm bed to a twin room (at another motel) at no extra charge! If I would let go my bed so that he could accommodate the affected guest. No prizes for guessing my answer!

Lucky me!

The small single rooms are not really rooms just a cupboard I had to upgrade. My issue is after being informed that I had paid in full the room rate and all taxes. They presented me another bill for those taxes already paid. They also say that I'm not the only person to complain about this but paid in full means not paid in full means pay taxes again and I don't understand.

terrible toilets

There was a horrible flood at the hostel's entrance. My trousers and shoes were terribly soaked and smelly. The staff spoke very little, of course no smile.
The room was only 2.5x2.5 metres. I'm not sure if its smaller than it said on website.
Toilets and bathrooms were dirty and so smelly. The toilet downstairs was flooded with smelly water.
Toilets upstairs were smelly too.
The location is quite in a centre of the town. It's only a short walk to love lane and food stalls. By the way, I didn't like that location. I found other locations nicer to stay. Most guests around love lane are westerners, maybe because there are full of pubs and bars.

Muntri Street!

Didn't expect a shared bathroom, but it was a memorable experience. Comfortable rooms and lovely cultural setting. The kid at the desk was a great help. Didn't get his name, but he spends his free time studying. Very attentive.

Good short walk to other areas near by. Use a GPS map and you'll be set.

If you're expecting a nice room to stay in with airconditioning, this is it. The room lacks a sufficient table, however, it's cosy enough.

Getting in and out at night may be a little tricky due to the door. But nothing unrealistic.

立地としてはジョージタウン内にあって、すぐ歩いて観光することができるが、ホテルが似たようなものがあって見つけづらい。
入り口等はちょっと小洒落た感じがあるが実際は築年数もかなりのためぼろぼろなところは否めない。
部屋はシングルベッド二つのところだったが噂通り窓はなかった。ただ、エアコンと扇風機がついており快適に過ごせた。
朝食は無料ではあるが本当に簡単なパンとビスケット。というより、いつでも食べていいよという感じで常にフロント隣に置いてある。
この価格帯でここまで快適に過ごせるのはとても良いが、強いて言うなら共用シャワーとトイレがマイナスポイント。
もともと一つのところに無理矢理2つ新たに作った感じ。しかもトイレといっしょのため臭いが少々アンモニア臭。全て少し壁に隙間が空いており完全な個室とは言えなく、辛いことに一番端のシャワールームはほか2つの排水が一挙に集まってくる（というのも、無理矢理3つのシャワールームにしたため排水口がもともとのひとつのところにしかついていないためすべての水がそこめがけて流れてくる）
結論から言えば、シャワー、トイレを我慢できる人であればコスパとしては十分なホテル。
