Swing and Pillows @ Beach Street, Penang

• No on-site staff, operates with remote management and digital pin code entry system that reportedly glitches when batteries run low.
• Beds are comfortable, but room access can be problematic due to malfunctioning digital locks that staff check remotely rather than in person.
• Shared bathrooms require deep cleaning and flip-flops for showering. No shoes policy enforced inside the building.
