Still a good budget choice for Penang
The Mingood is an older style budget hotel that we have visited several times over the years and it still has many plus points over the newer “boutique” renovations in Penang. It’s certainly not fancy but the rooms are spacious, baths now replaced by showers, good WiFi and a/c, safes and a simple breakfast are
all provided for a fair price. The staff are also very friendly, helpful and very knowledgeable about their city.

Very run down,will never go back .
Stayed here a few years ago when it was a reasonable but old hotel
Now I would not recommend to anyone
Maintenance is non existent.
Staff are all pleasant and seem resigned to the fact that the place is now a poor shadow of it's past.

The water pressure was so low, there is no bidet in the toilet. The aircond was not cold as it should be and the bed position was not in good position to get the aircond feel.
Convenient location, good free breakfast with lady in charge being a mine of tourist information, super friendly staff and spacious rooms, excellent value for money
The room said provide bathtub but it doesn’t provide at all.

Okay just for a night
Close to public transit. The hotel on the left and on the right of Hotel Mingood are both under construction so there is quite a bit of noise. The staff are friendly, especially the lady that provides breakfast (toast with peanut butter & strawberry jelly, cereal, orange slices, coffee, orange juice, and tea). The hotel is very old and there was always a wet spot on the carpet next to the toilet door.

가성비는 좋음
호텔 위치가 좋으나, 오래된 티가 남. 직원들은 매우 친절함. 화장실에 불개미가 많이 있었음.
To be recognised and welcomed by staff at all levels is very pleasing!

Hotel staff is friendly. The environment is compatible with the budget.
Overall is recommended if you are looking for a budget and convenient place to stay.
Not really worth. Not muslim friendly because the toilet got no water tap for cleaning purpose. Need to take water from the bathroom sink which is far the toilet bowl itself. Breakfast only got bread n some cereals with drinks.

Dated hotel near the CAT free bus stop #8
Check-in was pretty fast.
The hotel was a bit old but its ok
Counter staff was friendly but they do not seem to know about the CAT free bus. Some have never heard of it, but the senior staff told me to walk to the nearest stop #11. But I have checked on the Net and it says stop #8, but the staff said the bus there does not go the full loop, which we later found out to be untrue!
Good value. Location on side street, so fairly quiet. Friendly atmosphere. Reasonably priced food cooked to order is available in addition to the Continental Breakfast provided.
yes the hotel is a bit faded, and yes the building is a bit old but what do you expect at this price!
the rooms are large and breakfast was good. it had a bathtub! big fridge in room. kettle and hot water. I thought it was fanastic for the price and would come again as the staff work hard to keep it all working.
If you come here acknowledging and accepting that this hotel hasn't undergone much upgrading since its 1980s heyday, and if you are an individual who really just requires that the basics are met with no glitz, then you will have a very pleasant stay here.
Actually, this hotel performs better than some other hotels nearby whilst being around 30% cheaper.
The free Wi-Fi was good enough to allow uninterrupted live streaming of online movies.
The TV had English language channels with a good signal.
The room was spacious (though dated).
The bed was comfortable.
The aircon functioned well enough.
The breakfast was better than you'd imagine for this price-range.
The staff, super friendly and helpful.
