Sehr sehr cooles Hostel. Der eigene Anspruch ist es nicht den Aufenthalt des Gastes, sondern seinen gesamten Urlaub besser zu machen und dabei zu helfen, wo es nur möglich ist. D.h. Guidetrips buchen, von diversen Touren rund um Kuching erzählen, uvm. Sehr sehr cool. Familiär und hatte alles (und noch mehr) was wir brauchten. Dank geht raus an Ben, Nick und Flo :)

I can't say enough nice things about the place and the service! My room was just like it looks in the photos. Clean and quiet and I had everything I needed! The guesthouse is in a great location, minutes away from the waterfront and shopping, restaurants, massages, etc. But best of all was the service. Ben and Andy were great, super helpful, they helped me booked day trips, called the airline for when my luggage was lost on arrival, lent me a travel adapter as mine wasn't working, and were overall super welcoming and nice. Thanks for a great stay!

I spent 3 nights there. Although I arrived late, there were no staff at the check-out, so I just walked away after speaking with the owner on the phone. The hostel has a lovely common space, but the rest is a renovated office building. The hostel was peaceful and had little visitors, but it was January. The air conditioning in my private room broke on the first night and there were numerous long black hairs on the bed and floor. It was also not very clean, with many long black hairs on the bed and floor. There was no staff around at night, but I was informed via WhatsApp that I could move to a different room. Although there was loud music playing all night long at the nearby bar, this room was nicer with windows. Never repaired the aircorn. So three poor nights of sleep. Although the butter was musty, the toast and hot beverage served for breakfast. Over the three days, I only saw a member of staff for a few minutes. Although open showers were great, restrooms were frequently left dirty by other visitors and not cleaned. Although I don't enjoy providing lousy reviews, I find it challenging to write anything positive! Its potential, but it is a little underdeveloped.

They gave me a clean, comfortable room, a beautiful bathroom, and a guest room. The location is good, the kitchen is great and close to the supermarket. The staff is also very friendly.

Staff was nice and we took one tour they arrange, it was cool. However, you may want to know some little details: there is no towels unless you pay. Shared bathrooms, no handtowels. No safetybox! There was no staff members available at all times. If you have bad knees, notice that there is lot of stairs and no elevator. Smoking is possible inside the smoking area in the living room. All in all, we had a nice stay there! No cockroaches or ants, that is always ++.

Kanske inte tipptopp rum, men det vinner i längden. Gemensamt kök o badrum, men inte många gäster så det blir aldrig kö. Otroligt bra stab som hjälper till med allt. Lugnt, sköna sängar, nära till det mesta. Mycket för pengarna.

Budget hostel with large double rooms for couples. Nice shared area with free coffee, a tv, books and the option to buy some beer or soft drinks. Hostel helps arrange reasonable priced tours. Staff are very nice.

不過我們住的雙人房，兩邊的床頭燈一邊正常運作，一邊燈泡被拿掉不亮，讓整個已經很暗的房間亮不起來。另外對行李很重的人來說會比較辛苦，因為沒有電梯。床還蠻好睡的~

Kleine gezamenlijke douche. Aardige eigenaren. Goede communicatie vooraf maakte het makkelijk te vinden.

I had a fantastic time at his hostel and the location was great. Everyone in the hostel got along well and it was really nice having the bar attached to it. The only bad things were that it often ran out of toilet paper, the beds were super squeaky and it is quite a distance from the open air market.

Pro: Nice experience due to the lovely atmosphere. The owners made a real effort to make it a nice place (for instance flowers in the room + toilet). Felt like home. Also the place has a nice home-cinema with plenty of recent movies. Also has a nice collection of books. Furthermore the toilets are nice. Con: The place is not sufficiently clean. We were bitten by many insects in our room, which made our experience less than comfortable. However when we told the owners about it action was taken and we got a new room.

Das Zimmer war sehr hellhörig. Die ganze Nacht war es sehr laut. Kein eigenes Bad, jedochwar das gemeinsame Bad sauber. Das Zimmer war in einem schmuddeligen Zustand. Das Personal aber sehr freundlich.
