TIDO Hostel Penang

I liked the experience here, however, the bathrooms were very neglected. The staff hardly ever saw them being cleaned. And under every bed I slept in, I found a lot of dirt, even dead cockroaches. But overall, the experience here is very good. The atmosphere is interesting, and the roommates are also interesting. You have several shared areas on the top floor. It's a very nice place to hang out with your partner or just relax. It's a good place to work remotely or online. Suitable for digital nomads. The place is close to everything, literally close to everything. There's a beautiful Thai food restaurant very close to the hostel, right in front of the tap on the same block as every hostel..

Absolutely loved my stay at Tido Hostel Penang! I had a private soundproof room with a beautiful view — such a rare find in Penang. The room was super comfortable, and the common area on the top floor was such a nice space to relax and meet people. The reception team was lovely and really helpful throughout my stay. Only thing to note: the rooftop common area closes at midnight, which also cuts off access to the water dispenser — but not a big deal if you plan ahead. Overall, such a great experience and totally worth the price. AND BEST AREA. Close to everything but also quiet. Would definitely stay again!

Very affordable. Room is good, they gave towel and blanket. The aircond is good, mattress good, room spacious and good view. Toilet decent and sharing. However, no personal locker is the cons. For upper deck, no charger socket. Recom

So this was a mixed experience with a fatal mistake. I booked this hostel with Agoda and already paid before my 3 night stay. On the day i checked in there was an extra 10 rm tourism tax/ day and extra i think 2 rm heritage tax/ day. Now under normal circumstances this would be fine. But on my 2nd day after chatting with other guests i realized that i had already paid the tourism tax in advance when i booked the room through Agoda. The desk person confirmed this mistake and said that the person checking me in must have known not to charge me but did so anyway. I got my money back but kinda ruined the vibe of the trip. Anyways the room, accommodations, co working space was great. though i don't think security was the best, make sure to bring a lock when you stay here to secure the locker.

Nice hostel and friendly for solo traveller. I stayed at Female Dorm. The room is quite big and comfortable. They provided towel as well. Blanket, pillows and bed are comfy. Only the toilet and bathroom quite dirtyStaffs are friendly and helpful. I found many foreigners are here. .

Stayed here for a few hours to catch a nap. Didn’t expect much, but it was totally worth the price. What impressed me most were the staff—met two of them and both were really friendly and helpful. That alone made the visit feel welcoming.

Just need a place to sleep before an early hike in Penang Hill. No parking, soo was going around finding parking. Toilet was ok but not that clean. Unable to sleep cos the aircond suddenly stopped at 2 am and then it became hott.

Tried female dorms was ok, toilet was ok not that clean. For people who xan sleep with noises, people chexk in chatting, unpacking while you were sleeping. They cannot tolerate the cold they just switch off the aircond and theb it become hot.....
