Analysis

The location of Desa Bayan is suitable for those who are working in Bayan Lepas Industrial Zone and south areas of Penang Island. This is because it is a short distance away. Besides, frequent flight travelers can consider this area too since it is near to the Penang International Airport. Price wise, Desa Bayan is considered as reasonable and quite cheap too. Some of the units are a little bit more expensive since the owners have renovated and furnished the units. One can consider buying a unit that has been renovated since this apartment is already 6 years old. If you like to stay in a neighborhood area that is free from traffic jam and a little bit far from busy city centre of Georgetown, you can consider this as one of your options.
