Little exterior ventilation in the rooms. No cooking facilities but plenty of options to eat out nearby.

Sam is a relaxed, considerate host. All rooms have aircon. The beds are comfortable. Location in the heart of the old town is excellent. Close to Jonker Street night market. The hostel is clean and well maintained. Security is good.

The location is so near to the riverside.

The aircon can’t be controlled in the room and is set really high. Can be boiling hot in the dorms. Needs to be lowered.

Great location to Jonker street and historical sites of Malacca. Comfy beds and clean bathroom facilities. Cool social area and next to owners cafe.

A beautifully designed, very chill place. Comfy beds and quiet spaces (I got two very good nights of rest); thoughtfully designed and placed outlets, light switches, appliances…it’s those little things that can make a traveler’s day! Clean bathroom and clean, visually attractive common spaces, a friendly and communicative owner. Last but not least, a great location. Couldn’t have asked for more! Thank you!

Rooms are a bit tight, smaller common area. Very small fridge for drinks only, no food allowed. Free filtered water has chlorine smell.

Excellent location a few steps from Jonkers Walk. Very clean everywhere. Sam the owner is kind, friendly and helpful. Good quality linen, pillows and towels. Sufficient and roomy toilet/showers (4) and sinks (6). Nicely decorated with eclectic items from the past - even the doors and handles are unique pieces. Lots of books to read/trade. Donation box for unneeded items a future traveler may need.

Maybe that the common area allows smoking

The hostel was very clean and the single room small but very nicely done and practical with a desk, fresh towel and toiletries waiting for you.The host is very attentive, the towels were changed fresh every day. I also stayed one night in the dorm and it was also clean, comfortable beds with curtains and you get a locker. The location is very good, next to the Jonker’s walk. My best accommodation so far on this trip and now in Kuala Lumpur in a hotel that is nothing like it so appreciate a lot!

Nothing I didn’t like. My stay was perfect.

Enjoyed my stay at Ola so much that I extended it my trip. Great location, just parallel to Jonker street. Fantastic ambience, lovely music playing in the communal area. Great clean rooms and bathrooms. Sam is an exceptional host. I will be back again.

Indicator or sign board can be better to show guests the place it becomes a bit confusing for the 1st time.

One of the most cutest efficient hostels here in meleka. The beds and AC is perfect and fans. Nice showers. The owner sam is always around soft spoken and wonderfully efficient. The location is spot on and just parallel to the jonker street very close from everything. While going back to sentral bus just take a cab or taxi buses are a bit unreliable.

Excellent location and service provided by the hotel. Toilet was clean too

Changing the shampoo/shower gel bottles with dispensers would be more sustainable but other than that, the place is perfect.

This place is amazing! I was warmly welcomed by Sam, the manager who explained everything to me and showed me around. The place is small but really cozy. The mixed dorm with 4 beds was not very spacious but there were lockers for the most important items. The beds are very spacious and comfortable. Towel, blanket, shampoo, shower gel and water are offered to all guests. Maybe introducing shampoo/soap dispensers in the bathrooms would be more sustainable. The bathrooms are always clean. The common area is cozy and there is always soft and pleasant music. The location is perfect: just a few minutes from the canal where there are many restaurants. Less than 5 minutes walk to Joker street and about 10 minutes to Stadthuys. Many temples, mosques, cafes and restaurants around. Simply a perfect place!

No for now.

This hostel is the style I like! I review based on my experience. Sam is great to help with check in. The room is clean and didn’t smell, the bed is comfortable and provides 2 pillows, soft and firm to choose between. The toilet is clean and the hydraulic power is just right. Public area is great with plants and some antique collection including the beautiful bike! The sound insulation of the room i stayed is great coz theres Indian ceremony in the earlier morning and my room didn’t hear anything and the common area hear everything. It’s a pleasant stay that i feel great to come back again if i travel Melaka again.

Well prepared dom bed, everything was super nice and clean. The host Sam was helpful and you can rent a cycle to roam the area. Location is perfect all the attractions can reach within 5 mins. 😎

There's not much to say; maybe the ambience was a bit too individualistic.

The place is fantastic, and the staff is super friendly. They bend backwards to ensure you have a great stray in Melaka. The location is perfect, and the food recommendations are spot-on.

Sam was a very friendly host, the room was big and clean. So was the bathroom.

Good location and very clean and comfortable hostel. Room was a bit pokey and unfortunately it was booked out when I wanted to extend my stay.

Stayed in April 2025

The room had a slight damp smell when I entered but it was okay after turning on the air conditioner for sometime. Not at all a deal breaker.

Excellent choice especially if traveling alone and for one or two nights. Cleanliness of the facility was top notch. Mattresses and pillows were clean and comfortable. Hustle free chicken and check out process. Pleasant staff. Location is superb.

Nothing not to like

Amazing hostel in the middle of Malakka centre. Great beds, very clean and Sam is a true hero host.

Sam was a wonderful host creating a chilled and relaxed environment. The location is fantastic, close to the main sights and plenty of eateries.

The keycard is only one, it need to put in the card slot for the room to have electricity so every time when I need to just go to toilet, I also need to take the card, then no electricity in my room. I think maybe we can get the room password also? So no need to take out the card when we just want to go out for a while.

The host is friendly, will explain to you patiently. The room is clean, I think it is just right for a solo traveller, no need to much space. All the other travellers are so chill, they will talking at the common area. The bathroom is quite large and so clean. The location is so good, it's just beside jonker street.

Had to go down a steep flight of stairs from our room to get to the toilet

Really good location
