I had a pleasant stay at Armenian House, which is perfectly located on Armenian Street, making it easy to explore the vibrant streets of George Town. The host was incredibly friendly, and I appreciated the clean accommodations. While the breakfast could be improved and the bathroom situation was a bit inconvenient, the overall charm and value for the price were noteworthy.

I stayed at Armenian House for two nights and loved it so much that I extended my stay for two more. The location is fantastic for exploring the vibrant street art and is right in the heart of George Town. My room was quiet despite being in a bustling area, though the sound of the running water feature might not be for everyone. Some minor issues included the lack of breakfast options and slow Wi-Fi, but overall, I would definitely stay again. 😊
