We stayed at the cafe 1511 for one night and had a great experience. We had the attic room, initially felt awkward, but in no time, it felt like your bedroom. The place is very clean. Bathroom located a floor below attic, but was not a problem. Privacy is respected. The owners were very friendly and did a fantastic job.... More

At the outset, let me state that we stayed in the sister property of Cafe 1511, Cafe D'Laksamana. As there is not entry yet for the new property, I thought I could put my review here as it is under the same management. The house is a short walk away from all the action near the Jonker Street area. But... More

The guesthouse is the first house of three historic buildings within the old quarter of Melaka and connected to the Baba Nonya House/Museum. Its conversion into a guesthouse has ensured that there is regular income to the complex to ensure the buildings can be maintained in their original historic state. We were not expecting shared toilet and showers...and did not... More

Well, it would be if Mumma was cooking these tasty dishes. Very fresh, fragrant and flavoursome. Not flash or fancy. Probably what the locals call 'home-cooked' meals. More

This was one that I had a feeling was 'too good to be true'. For the price I was thinking it would be one of the 'uh-oh' places when I pre-booked through Agoda (we were on a 27 day trip of Malaysia and I researched and pre-booked most hotels). What a delightful surprise. I am so glad I pre-booked because... More

By the good reviews here, there is no need for me to say much about the value of this guesthouse. This time around, we were staying at the attic room. An unique experience. However, you need strong legs as there is quite a lot of climbing. It was like coming back home. Even the 2 foreign helpers recognised us. Because... More

The food is not good at all - the courtyard is nice though. There are way much better restaurants in Malacca - dont waste your time and money on this. More
