Good location easy to get to all sides of Penang. Bakery, mini mart, large 7-11, restaurant and a pharmacy nearby makes it very convenient. Apartment is clean and spacious.

Great pool. Some confusion about a cash deposit that we refused to pay
Our stay at Tropicana 218 Macalister was fantastic and made even better by the excellent service from the management team at Yue Lai Inn Management.
From the moment we arrived, everything was smooth and easy. The check-in process was straightforward, and the directions provided to help us find our way around the property were clear and very helpful.
The room itself was comfortable and well-appointed, with a lovely view that made relaxing in the evenings especially enjoyable. One of the highlights was the level 8 swimming pool, which was refreshing and a great place to cool off after exploring the city.
The location is also very convenient. There’s shopping right downstairs, and some of Penang’s amazing local street food is just a short walk away, making it incredibly easy to experience the vibrant food culture that George Town is famous for.
Overall, this was a very comfortable and enjoyable stay. With responsive management, great amenities, and a fantastic location, we would happily stay here again when visiting Penang. Highly recommended! 🌴🏙️🍜
