100 Cintra Street is a late 19th-century Baba-Nonya (Straits Chinese) house which has been lovingly restored and today hosts a ground floor cafe, a few antique shops, a Baba-Nonya museum and, most recently, a simple guesthouse or budget hotel. It is located in the heart of Chinatown along Cintra Street, the main street which all visitors use from the bus terminal at KOMTAR on their trek to Lebuh Chulia in Penang Island.
There are 14 double-bedded rooms (all with windows and sleeping on raised traditional timber platform), and a 6-bedded dormitory, 4 areas with washing facilities, TV lounge, conference room, library for easy reading, facilities for drinks and coffee (free coffee is provided), free bicycles for two hours a day to tour the city, a covered breezy veranda for lazing and reading and a roof deck that could be used for sun bathing if you are inclined to in the afternoon.
