Ola Lavanderia Cafe

great location in the city centre. it's quiet guesthouse but very kind and helpful host. it was a pleasant stay for the weekend trip!

Was a great place to stay! A nice touch having universal adapters on every PowerPoint. A quiet hostel with the opportunity to meet people if you want to. Sam was also a great host. Would stay again.

It was really a pleasure to stay at Ola! Sam is a great host and will help you with everything. Hope to come again!

Great property, amazing host and lovely atmosphere he also runs the little cafe which is also very nice

We stayed at Ola Lavanderia for two nights in April 2026. As it was kind of off-season, there was not much going on in the hostel. The rooms and bathroom were clean and comfortable. There is a cafe attached to the hostel, however the opening hours were very random. It was supposed to open at 10 am, however once, it was still not open at 12.30, so we had breakfast somewhere else. The location is exceptionally good, in the city center.

nice and quiet hostel

This hostel is pretty much everything you could ask for - super comfy beds, perfectly clean, great manager, and so nicely decorated. Plus, they change your towel everyday!!! It’s not the most social hostel, but to be honest I didn’t even mind because I felt so comfortable there. The only issue for me is that they don’t provide complementary breakfast, but also don’t let you store food in the fridge. Apart from that I give it a 10/10 Would definitely recommend

very nice hostel! owner really friendly and helpful if you need anything. very clean and they give you every day a new towel! very safe with card system and good location. would stay there again:)

Really clean rooms with good facilities and the owner was really friendly. Can’t fault it!

Loved every second here. Is a chilled but social vibe and such a good location too. Sam the owner is so lovely and easy to talk to if you have any questions or concerns. Location is just around the corner from the main market street and there are loads of cafes too on the road including this cafe too!

Very clean and tidy, well located in the city center.

Great hostel, very nice interiors, clean rooms, beds, bathrooms, very nice and helpful owner. Good location, close to the market street, restaurants, boat pier and other attractions within the district, I really enjoyed staying there.

Really nice stay, clean and comfortable and in a great location, right next to night market and lots of great restaurants!

The hostel is in a good location a short walk from the night market. It is calm in the hostel and very clean. The staff were all friendly and welcoming. I was very happy with my stay :)

Overall I had a really great stay here. it was clean and well kept. The owner, Sam, is a really friendly and helpful guy, it was a pleasure talking with him. Location is amazing too, literally right next to Jonker Street

exceptional hostel in Malacca, the host is incredibly nice and bubbly. Malacca is not made for very social travelling but attracts a friendly crowd

Super fijn hostel

This hostel is great! The beds are comfy and the common space is super chill. The owner is also very nice. Toilets are clean and there is also a cafe right at the entrance of the hostel. It’s not the usual social vibe of an hostel but it is perfect if you want to recharge for a bit and visit Melaka :)

Sam was such a kind host! The location couldn’t be better& I really liked the style of the interior :)

heel schoon en fijn! heerlijk rustpunt.
