The owner organizes biketours to local markets for free, showing you local food and fruits. The rooms are clean and unique. One of the... More

Friendly owner. Feels like a home with all the other travellers. Booked a triple bed room with air-con. Not tip-top comfy by it really feels like a home with friendly families or other travellers from around the world. Walking distance to Jonker Walk, weekend where it would come alive! Lots of good food and bars in the streets. Shared bathroom... More

It was a great place to make friends and never have I expected me and some of my former roommates are buddies till now. The place was a bit old but I didn't really care much. The people staying there are an awesome bunch. Also, kudos to Howard the owner who made me feel welcome. Location was easy to find... More

This is backpackers heaven if you are in melaka, mainly because of Howard the host/manager/tourguide/informationpoint/everything of the place. He is the kindest man possible. He takes his guests to the best dinner places every evening and does bike tours as well. More

Perfect location, just a few minutes walk from Jonker Street and the Christ Church area. Howard, the owner, was an excellent host who introduced everyone and organized dinner/bike tours for his guests nearly every afternoon. Stayed in double A/C room with my brother. It was a bit old, but decorated nicely. The WiFi is fast and always available. Bathroom was... More

We stayed here for three nights in a double room. What I really liked about this place is how it's the perfect place to meet people. Howard the owner aims to make everyone feel like family and tries to Bring people together. During our stay he brought us, and anyone else who wanted to, on cycles around the town, to... More

Howard, the hotel manager, is very friendly, welcoming, and knowledgeable about local eats and things to do. The hostel's been up and running for 6 years, for good reason. It's not perfectly spotless, not all rooms have a/c, but not all hostels have such a cool guy running it, a rooftop hangout, several lounges, bbq, and drinks. If you choose... More

We had a great 5 night stay at Ringos. When we first arrived we were a little unsure as the place is quite big with rooms scattered around but this feeling quickly went as we started talking to the owner Howard. He really makes you feel at home and you couldn't ask for a more laid back guy or place... More
