We loved our stay here. The location is brilliant!!! Right by the waterfront with loads of street food in the surrounding area and a huge shopping mall around the corner. There is a bus service that runs to Bako National Park right on the waterfront which was highly convenient. The staff were super helpful and friendly and the room, though basic, was comfortable. Check in was quick and simple. They even gave us an option to choose out of 2 available rooms. The shared bathrooms were spotless and we never had to wait our turn for the toilet or a shower. There’s a kettle in the hallway and tables to eat on. There is also a shared fridge downstairs. The roof terrace is lovely and peaceful. We will definitely stay here again if we return to Kuching.

The property was really clean. The room was modern and well decorated. Excellent location, near to the waterfront. We went to Bako for 2 nights and they let us leave our big back packs as we were staying for another night on our return. The staff are really friendly and helpful. Hairdryer in bathroom.

We knew this from reading the reviews but you can hear everything through the walls of the rooms, however for the price of a private room you can't complain.
Very good price for a double private room. Toilets and showers were very clean. Great location on a street with restaurants and bars.

The rooms aren’t sound proof at all so noise can be a little bit of a nuisance but that’s me being super picky.
