My stay at Red Inn Court had its ups and downs. The location was fantastic, close to several temples and historical attractions, which made exploring George Town easy. However, the noise levels were often disruptive, both from the busy street outside and the thin walls that let me hear everything happening around me. While the staff were generally friendly, I felt that service could be improved, especially during busy check-in times.

The shared bathrooms were clean, but one of the showers wasn't working properly, and the lightbulbs flickered annoyingly. The amenities could use some improvement to enhance comfort.

The rooms were spacious and clean, which I appreciated. However, the bathrooms could be improved since the ones upstairs didn’t have hot water. I did notice a bit of humidity when I first entered my room, likely due to the air conditioning working overtime.

The staff were not as helpful as I hoped. For example, they forgot to provide towels when I checked in, although I saw other guests receive them. This inconsistency made my experience a bit frustrating.

Breakfast was pretty basic—just toast and jam—but there were free tea, coffee, and water available all day. While it wasn’t a hearty breakfast, it was better than nothing (and I took advantage of the free-flow drinks!).

The hostel had decent facilities like daily room service and clean shared bathrooms, but I noted a shortage of hot water and limited locker space for my belongings. The lack of hot water in the bathrooms was a bit of a letdown.
