This is the first time I have ever failed to check in to a hotel having arrived at the check-in desk. We had booked a double room which we intended to occupy for a single night with our son. We did not require any additional bedding, breakfast or anything else. Our son is still young enough to sleep with us... more

Spent 5 nights at Mingood last week. I just cant believe the previous 2 reviews being so negative. Our room was clean, spacious, no bed bugs and had a little balcony with a nice view over the old town and the hills. Ok, its nothing fancy, but it costs 80RM per night!!!! Really what more can you expect for this... more

Choosing this hotel has got to be the biggest mistake in my life......nothing more than a cheap motel! I can get better hotels along Chulia Street. Service was horrible, room was filthy and rundown. Location was not impressive..........Never again I will step into this place. Give it a miss if you are happen to be in Penang.! more

Terrible hotel! Room full of bug and very dirty. How can it named as a hotel not motel. Booked a Triple room but being put in a double with only an extra bed. Also, run down location never recommended to go out at night as you will be robbed. more

I paid 80RM for a double room.Although the hotel is old, it is very clean and well maintained.It is well situated within walking distance of almost all sightseeing, restaurants,markets, etc. Room had great AC, hot water, great water pressure, small fridge and TV with remote, BBC,ESPN,Star Movies.

We stayed at Hotel Mingood for 1 night during our trip to Penang in July 2009. The Mingood is a bargain basement price and to be honest the value is good - large room with air conditioner and some cable television. The staff are friendly also - highlight is the restaurant 'Nice' across the road! The hotel is old and... more

With prices of RM80 available on most booking sites (although oddly enough not their own site), this is a steal. If you are looking for ultra modern, or the comfort level of western hotels, you won't find it here. However if you are looking for a clean room, a cold air conditioner, a refrigerator, a friendly staff, free wifi, and... more

We stayed at the Hotel Mingood for 6 nights (still here in fact as this is our last night!) We booked the hotel due to the great reviews on this site and have to agree that this is a great find! We booked a twin room with a balcony which looks out over the street at the front of the... more

First of all the thing we noticed when we arrived was that the staff were really helpful and friendly. As soon as we arrived we were given a map of Georgetown and the receptionist highlighted places of interest and locations of banks, bus stops etc, he also gave us a printed list of buses to points of interest which came... more
