The location of the property was strategic and it was right beside the beach. It was a pleasant stay for 2 days here. The room and overall property cleanliness was good, however there is room for improvement in the cleanliness of the washroom. Overall, a satisfying stay at Baan Talay.

2. Unsecured access to room
3. Poor wifi connection, not even good for google search
4. Got burn with hot water with a bad quality water heater
5. No information was available at the entrance, waited for 15 mins infront of doorto get first level assistance

Comfortable, clean and quiet place. Near town
1. Easy to find. Near the beach.
2. Parking is an issue especially in the peak season. We had to park our Car at junction at night. Too many cars along the road at night.
3. We were concerned on the parking system in town in Penang. Suggest Notice board with information on parking, latest events and main attractions in town , city map would be great if made easy access.

Budget homestay near to the beach
Service was good, the owner contacted me earlier to ask my arrival time, the house were clean, nice and comfortable. It is a very quite place, within a minute to Tanjung Bungah beach, except that the wifi coverage was not that excellent upstairs.

Comfy homestay in a great house by the sea
This place is a homestay in a big house 30 seconds from a small, secluded beach. Price is good and Ray, the owner, is a great, helpful and friendly guy. Its away from attractions but busses are frequent. Highly recommended.

Baan Talay Homestay by the beach
Stay for 3 day 2 night. Nice room and friendly owner (Mr Ray). Hopefully will meet again and stay there again in future. In future hopefully the owner may service the air cond because it quite hot there during night and need to put a TV inside a room for privacy... Thank you

Convenient and good value for money.
Homestay most suitable for young travelers wishing for quiet location giving easy (bus) access to George Town.
Clean basic room with well appointed communal kitchen. Room has effective A/C and fan. The English speaking owner was really helpfull. The nearby beach is clean and quite pleasant. This Homestay represents excellent value for money.

Penang Trip
We arrived around noon and got checked in quickly and got the room keys immediately. The homestay was near to the beach. Their garden was so beautiful with a fish pond there. The staff was friendly. He helped us with booking taxi and told us where to go. The room and bathroom were clean and nicely decorated. We are planning to go again.
