KF Guesthouse & Laundry selfservice — Hotel in George Town

The KF Guesthouse is a budget hotel at a busy Burmah Road. The place is very new, just about 3 months old since it started operating. The rooms are very clean so are the toilets. Room rates are very reasonable, at Rm 95 for a family room (1 queen + 1 single bed). Room has no ensuite toilet and you have to share the common toilets.No breakfast is served also but the pantry is equipt with free drinking water (hot and cold) and there is a fridge in there too.||||For those who drive there, parking is a bit of a challenged as they dont have a dedicated parking space. You need to cross the road and park your car in front of a building opposite the guesthouse.||||The staff are friendly and greeted you with apleasant smile and acknowleged your presents.||||Location is very strategic too.. you can find many eateries around the place.. chinese, muslim and indonesian nasi padang food can be found just a short distance away.

If you need extra bed they will accomodate your request and provide an extra mattress without...

The vegetarian and noodle soup (night time only) are very popular.||You dont have to spend much on transport (taxi)...

A nice little family-run Guest-House.. RM 6 Duck & Rice Lunch, next door. RM 5 Vegetarian Buffet Restaurant, 2 doors up from K.F.||The two Big Buddha Temples, Thai & Burmese, are under 5 minutes walk away.||N.B. The Reclining Buddha, is in fact, Buddha smiling at his own impending death.||Just over 5 minutes walk to the Cafes of Gurney Drive Bay, under 10 minutes to the Northam Beach Cafe, which is right on the waterfront/ no road in between.||Cafes on the Bay, are great around sunset, for watching Ocean Cruise Ships coming in to dock, or departing to open waters. A good Escape from...
