This was our first stop in Malaysia and overall it was welcoming and comfortable. As posted by other contributors, Jimmy, the owner and guru of the place, is very committed and incredible willing to give advice and recommendations. But our stay wasn't without issue and I would feel hard pushed to say this was a great budget guesthouse. Rooms started... more

Love Lane Inn was recommended to me by several other travellers so I thought I'd give it a try. The rooms are basic and seem to vary in temperature and noise levels - check a few out before you pay. I was in a single with shared bathroom, but so cheap for the area and i didn't have any issues... more

I had seen Love Lane Inn recommended/advertised by several other hostels in Malaysia, and due to this I thought it was worth checking out when I landed in Penang for a couple of days. The accommodation was a little on the expensive side at RM12 for a dormitory and there was a deposit taken which I forgot to pickup which... more

The Love Lane Inn was recommded to us by two backpackers we met in the Cameron Highlands, Malaysia. They weren't wrong. The owner Jimmy is a very welcoming old man with HEAPS of knowledge on tours, restaurants etc.. He was so helpful to us by arranging accommodation for us in Langkawi over the Christmas period as we were having no... more

We turned up late in Georgtown and wondered in to the Love Lane Inn, because friends of ours had recommended it. We met Aimee who was on the front desk. She is hilarious and basically mental! But in the nicest way! The first night we stayed in the dormitory, then moved to a private room the next night. This is... more

I stayed at the Love Lane Inn during August, 2005. I had lengthly chats with Jimmy, whom was a very nice guy. Amy was also great to talk with, both had many stories to talk about. The price was great value, I got a double room for RM 22 which is a real bargain. Late check in wasn't a problem,... more

Love Lane Inn is in a great Location in Georgetown where you are near both Chinatown and Little India. Trips to Penang Hill and places such as the snake farm are easy and enjoyable. However, although Love Lane Inn itself had a friendly atmosphere and many travellers to mix with, we encountered a few technical hitches. The main one was... more
