The common area is so beautiful and inviting. The owner is very friendly and tries everything to make you feel comfortable. Because my bus was delayed, I arrived after check-in time, but it wasn't a problem. The accommodation is located in a quiet street, but still close to everything like restaurants etc. They provide water and tea, and the kitchen is well equipped in case you want to cook... I shared a room with one other girl, and we had plenty of space for our stuff. The AC is running well!

Absolutely everything! The place was new, clean, lovely finishings and great lighting. The air conditioning worked well. They offered free coffee and snacks every day for guests. They allowed early check in when our room was ready and all the staff were so lovely. We actually moved from a previous accomodation that was terrible and we were so happy when we arrived to Amore Stay. Fantastic location, wonderful owners. Would definitely stay again!

The hostel staff was very welcoming and kind. They also prepared an itinerary for us, which was really nice! There is free water, coffee… The rooms are clean and have everything they need. The bathroom facilities were also clean. We lost something there and the staff was so kind and sent it to us all the way to Kuala Lumpur - all in all, very good price-performance ratio, nice staff and cozy environment.

The location was great! It was so easy to get out and explore. My room and the whole place was very clean, wifi was very fast, had plug adaptors so I could plug in multiple things at once. Common areas are plenty and comfortable. The staff were very friendly! They recommended a great itinerary for the duration of our stay, and also recommended nice places to eat. It seems hard to find a place with a window in Georgetown - while the windows in my room couldn't open, they let in plenty of natural light
