This hotel has lots of homely touches and it is certainly a great place to stay. My room had everything I needed and a nice big window. The restaurant downstairs is excellent and that is where you get your breakfast, included in the room price. I had lunch there twice and I highly recommend you give it a try, but certain dishes run out, so have a midday lunch to get the full range of options. It is a 15 minute walk to Tanjung Aru Beach, which is a great place for sunsets, enjoying the market, or walking up or down the beach to enjoy the scenery.

I think it is on the expensive side, however I've been travelling throughout SE Asia for 3.5 months and probably conditioned to lower prices.

Very clean and comfortable, shared bathroom was always clean and had shower gel in there for use. Location is right next to restaurants and shops but a bit out of the way. Breakfast is included, you can choose 2 local pastries from the cafe downstairs which we enjoyed. Also I want to give a special mention to a young girl who works in the cafe downstairs, we didn’t get her name but she has ginger hair and her English is very good. She always looked out for us and assisted us every morning in choosing a pastry and getting us coffees promptly. She is an asset to the team.

Just a bit out of the way with no hike rentals close by

Spacious, clean comfortable room with high ceilings. Cafe downstairs was super convenient and yummy, breakfast was solid (a drink and pastry) but we tried other food there too and it was great. Alex would help us order and recommend some things if he was there when we went - made us feel welcome! Location is not central but it is walking distance to a popular beach and night market, and close to the airport.

Water pressure in shower was low. AC was weak, but Alex was very proactive about getting someone to look into it. It still took a really long time to lower the temperature of the room (like hours), so we ended up having to leave the AC on when leaving for the day so it never got too hot (for reference, we’ve never done this anywhere else in our 6 week trip to Southeast Asia. Also we usually set the AC to around 23 but it probably never got below 25 during our stay). Also, we booked the family room and while it was spacious it wasn’t different from other normal rooms we’ve had (a bed, a private bathroom, a desk)

Absolutely brilliant place, close to the airport, away from the noise of the city, close to the beach for sunset watching, kopitiam downstairs, small market, a couple of traditional grocery shops and a little coffee shop next door for a very good coffee and croissants. We liked the large room with big windows, the shared living room and the common kitchen with access to boiling water for tea, a rice cooker and cooking gear. Get yourself a motorbike and you are good to go.

Nothing really.

We really enjoyed our stay here. Out of hours check in worked perfectly. We caught a grab taxi from the airport for 9myr (£1.50). The room was spacious, very clean, fabulous big comfortable bed. A desk, hanging space for clothes, good Aircon and a fan. Nice bathroom with hot shower. There is also a kitchen here which had all cooking facilities and also very clean. First morning - we were greeted at breakfast, which is downstairs at the café place underneath and served with tea/coffee and a selection of pastries which were delicious. Alex - our host was helpful and accommodating, we would definitely stay here again.

We liked everything

Very clean, spacious, and comfortable room. A few restaurants and a supermarket on the same block. Breakfast downstairs in the busy restaurant was fun and appreciated. You just show your key and they bring you a coffee and you can choose a bakery item from the front of the shop. We also had some local breakfast for a small fee. Delicious. It was interesting watching the comings and goings of workers. We had a car so the proximity to the airport was perfect. Would definitely stay again.

Spacious room with a nice vibe in a good location, with some local restaurants nearby. Shared space (kitchen) gives opportunity to use additional facilities and is an added value. The host is very responsive and easy to communicate with, also good willing if you need any help.

The apartment is little bit worn, but it gives some kind of charm. Street outside might sound noisy, but earplugs do the trick.

The location is a bit far from the city, but we booked it because it is close to the beach, where you can see beautiful sunsets. The staff are kind and nice. Don't forget to go to the restaurant downstairs. We tried their ginger pork with rice. The pork was awesome! The place is clean and tidy, with water dispenser in the shared kitchen. They clean the communal areas every single day.

It’s a cosy accommodation, bed is comfortable, cleanliness is good and good small town view too. The host did provide breakfast like traditional cakes by nyonya and maybe toast, it’s tasty and great with this value of money for the accommodation. The host very friendly and helpful, he tried his best to help me for my queries and also airport pick up in midnight too with little fees.
