So far the greatest hostel I've ever been. The staff is so kind and friendly, the air-conditioning is working well and the room had hair dryer, they also prepared toothpaste with toothbrush, shampoo, iron board and more. Will definitely come again here. 👍

Lovely renovated property in an excellent location - near the main tourist areas but in an area retaining a lot of local character. The self check-in and doors that use a PIN code instead of a card were really handy.

Aayu Stewart is in a beautiful heritage house, the house feels very luxurious. In the room, we were welcomed with a kind personalised letter to wish us welcome. There is free filtered drinking water, plenty of kitchen facilities and bread to try. The owner was the biggest plus of our size - they spoke English very well, were incredibly helpful and usually replied within a few seconds (!!) with a detailed response to my questions.

I had a wonderful stay at this new hotel. The room was clean, comfy, and well-equipped with everything I needed — air-conditioning, hot shower, free Wi-Fi. The bed was super comfortable, and I slept so well! The decoration here has a strong Nyonya vibe.
