- MOHD ZAM ALI (8/5): nice - location near beach and popular tourists attractions the toilet in my room is so small
- Azura (8/5): -
- Normadinah (7/5): Pleasant stay overall, except for a staff incident - A staff member entered our accommodation room to clean without informing us beforehand. When we opened the door, we were surprised to find the staff member inside the room. The staff member was also wearing slippers while inside the room, and I informed him that we pray in that area.
I hope this matter can be addressed to ensure better communication, respect for guests’ privacy, and sensitivity to religious practices in the future.
Thank you.
- Muhammad Amri (10/5): - Everything was the Best
Staff Super Helpful and Friendly
Lovely Cats too
- SK Mahinur (8/5): Meaningful - Cozy property with friendly staff. Those who are looking for a budget stay near the beach, this is a good option. The bed is big and firm, the pillows are firm too. Wifi and hot water supply was 24/7. You get a free iron with stand at the corridor for use. The cleanliness was up to the mark. We had issues with the toilet flush, they repaired it instantly. Really liked the cordial behavior and nice cooperation and instant service of the property manager Mr. Ravi. He also gave us suggestions on areas to explore. Wishing all the best to whoever is visiting next! I recommend staying in upstair room 208, though it’s a bit congested, it has a small balcony which ensures a nice city view. In one word - GAiA is heavenly for budget travelers who are looking out for a calm and experiential stay.

En-suite As in all these cheaper properties the compromise is the bathroom where you can clean your teeth, go to the toilet and shower simultaneously:). Shower was new and gave continuous hot water:)

- Doresamy (4/5): The staff were friendly but at times appear to not understand instructions. - The location. Close to my family. The cleanliness.
Poor - toilet not cleaned daily
The room appeared to have been tidied, but it was done very superficially.
No mug for coffee
The toilet door needs cleaning.
No bedside table.

- Rahim (10/5): Exceptional - Overall was good...i dont really stay in the room coz most of the time i was exploring the island....a good place for me to sleep as i only came back late at night...my only hotel i love to stay when i reach Penang and stayed here since the previous management.
- Shahees (7/5): Good - To sleep and take rest Nothing
- Taylah (8/5): Perfect stay for a short trip - The bed was really comfy, and the AC worked well, which made the room comfortable overall. It was within walking distance of pharmacies, shops etc. The space was quite small for two people with suitcases — it felt a bit cramped — and the street noise was quite loud at times, especially during the night, so light sleepers might want to bring earplugs.
When we arrived, we were unexpectedly charged a ‘government tax fee’, but the next morning the manager let us know this was a mistake. They refunded us and resolved the issue really quickly, which we appreciated. All the staff we interacted with were helpful and friendly throughout our stay. It suited our needs for a short trip, but just be aware of the compact size and street noise.
- Rosie (8/5): Very good - The bed was very comfortable. Staff were friendly and helpful
- Hew (8/5): Overall, I am satisfied with the stay. - Location, easy accesss. Nearby have bank, bus station and convenient store. Friendly staff. Have little smell in the room.

- Belle (10/5): Excellent - Location near to the beach, comfy king bed size, free parking.. Everything is perfect, I'll definitely stay here again. Nothing, just creepy lightning electric-static from the comforter fabric..me and my husband was freak out, our first experience.
- Li (7/5): I like the staffs, polite, friendly and helpful. Easy check in and out. - The hotel's location is very convenient, with easy access to eateries, shopping and sightseeing. Easy parking, 24 hrs convenient stores nearby. The room rate is definitely worth it. TV is user-friendly, making easy to find films or tv programs on YouTube, and internet is fantastic and strong. The bed is comfortable, and the room is kept clean. We especially love the balcony room, it always a highlight of our return trips and satisfying stays. The Tanjung Tokong 33 Best Food Hub, Hillside food court Tanjung bungah and German restaurant Ingolf's Kneipe are our favorite spots, offering great food at reasonable prices. We highly recommend Gaia hotel. All good. Nothing to complain about.

- Georgia (8/5): Did the job. - Staff were very friendly and helpful! Gave us a few things for us to do to fill our day. The bed felt like we were sleeping on a cloud. Slightly out of the way so had to rely on taxi’s or do what we did and rent a moped which is about 10/15 minute drive away.
- Wai (9/5): Superb -
- Daniel (8/5): Very good - Rooms comfortable and clean. Good WiFi and TV. Beds very comfortable. Staff very friendly and helpful. Thin walls. Windows open when we arrived so mosquitos in the room.

- Subramaniam (5/5): Passable -
- Chern (8/5): Very good -
- Мария (5/5): Unpleasant memory - Beds were big and comfortable. Rooms were equipped not only with air conditioner, but with ceiling fan as well, which was quite useful. Staff was friendly and helpful. At first glance, the room was okay. But if you look closer, you'll see that all the towels, bed linens were completely dirty. There were someone's hair everywhere in the room.
The toilet was leaking. We asked the stuff to change the room after we discovered the problem with toilet. And they were ready to do that, but the other room had the same issue with toilet leaking, so we kept the first one. There were a big bug or a cockroach in the room. In general, I'd say stay there didn't match the price.
