China“老板是个华人小哥，提前加了微信，告诉了入门密码及钥题位置。民宿离鸡场街很近，周五下午到的，本来周五到周天晚上有夜市，晚上忙着收拾安顿，错过了夜市很遗憾。房东人很和善，还带了糖，介绍了吃饭的地方，室内有空调，干净卫生，自肋形式为主，感觉很自在” 
Guohui China“当我到达酒店后，酒店老板非常高效地为我办理入住，可以说中文，沟通无障碍，就像邻家哥哥一样亲切，安顿好我的房间后，告诉我饮水机怎么用，浴室的淋浴设备如何使用，每个角落都非常干净，房间无异味儿不潮湿，老板还提前把空调和风扇给我打开了，入住事项结束后，老板给了我一张马六甲的地图，为我讲解线路和景点，并告诉我在外面遇到任何问题比如迷路了或者其他都可以及时联系他，他可以帮助我，对于一个孤身一人漂泊在外人生地不熟的女孩子来说，就像是在这里突然有了一个家，家里有家人的感觉，这里的地理位置绝佳，就在马六甲...”- Kike30
