Melaka City


The attractive street art of Kenji Chai decorates the walls of this otherwise minimalist flashpackers in a key Chinatown location. Six- and four-bed dorms are tiny but each bunk has a decent mattress, power point and reading light. There aren't enough lockers and bathrooms, and though attractive, it could be cleaner. A free laundry and comfy TV room compensate.

Free coffee, tea and simple snacks are available around the clock in the kitchen.
