good location as we can walk to jonker street within 5mins
The staff are friendly, while the room is fairly cosy and comfy. In addition, the hotel is distinctively designed.

Hip Boutique Hotel in the Heart of Malacca!
Fantastic location surrounded by sights of Malacca! Clean and decent place to lay your head after a long day out sightseeing. Areas for improvement: Stable/reliable WiFi connection, breakfast options for vegetarians.

Would stay again
Great location, very clean, exactly as pictured. My only complaints- 1) the walls are quite thin, so you can hear your neighbors’ every move, 2) the WiFi doesn’t have a good signal and annoyingly you must refresh your access every 30 minutes. Other than these two things, it was a great stay.

New and comfortable hotel with exceptional service from the front desk employee. Only area for improvement: the whole washroom gets wet after shower.

Good location but noisy.
Rooms are not soundproof.can hear the slamming of doors & noises etc. The sink is outside the bathroom. Water flood in the bathroom to the toilet bowl area after every bath. Terrible. It’s the design flaw. Housekeeping is terrible, did not refill toilet roll, tissue box, sleepers etc. The windows faced a concrete wall, cleverly decorated with plastic plants. But the room looks dark.

Excellent!
I had a splendid stay at The Rucksack Caratel - Jonker Wing. Initially we walked to the Garden Wing, and thankfully the staff guided us the way to the Jonker Wing (only a 8-10 min walk away) and even provided their own customised map of Malacca together with a list of food places recommended. We used the list to visit many places and enjoyed the food so much. The room was amazing - comfortable and did not lack any facilities, not to mention the affordable rates. Staff was also very friendly and helpful. Breakfast served was pretty good too. Highly recommended place to stay at, would stay there again if I return to Malacca.

위치가 정말 좋음
광장에서 몇 걸음만 가면 된다. 직원들은 매우 친절하고 친근했다. 방은 깨끗하고 모든게 만족스러웠지만 에어컨 리모컨이 없고 현관문 옆에서만 조절할 수 있어서 약간 불편했다. 외부를 볼 수 없어 약간 답답하기도 한 부분을 센스있는 인테리어로 대신했다. 매우 만족스러운 호텔이었다.

Spectacular Rucksack
The stay was awesome. It was only there when I realized that the location of the hotel is almost at the center of places of interest. Just a reminder that if you want to have your room cleaned, you have to hang the clean up room tag at the door, unlike in hotels, no need to do this.

High recommended
Highly recommended, especially if it’s your first visit to Melaka. Beside the superb location; the room is clean and comfortable. The hotel staff (Daniel) was super friendly and helpful!
