Guest Reviews

• Zachariah (10/5): Junaid was great and the place was clean super comfy and in a perfect location - The property is in the best location possible it’s perfect. Junaid was super hospitable and really friendly he cared about how peoples stay was and helped in every way he could. Give the man a raise!
• Noelene (3/5): The whole idea of contactless check in and stuff is great but then the places need to be top notch. Not worth it - The location is very convenient and the bed was comfortable enough. The floor had stains on it and was sticky. The “tiles” were coming loose. The pictures online are not the same as the reality. For the entire stay one of the shower heads was broken (wouldn’t stay in place and kept sliding down)and for the majority of the stay one of the toilets also didn’t work. Where the rooms are located is also not clearly marked. The touch code thing is EXTREMELY sensitive and if you don’t hold it in just the right spot it either won’t light up or won’t let you enter the code. Because it’s so cheaply built you could hear EVERYTHING- very noise late at night

• Nur Asilah (7/5): - Room and toilet very clean. Quite spacious staff SUTHARSAN JUNAID friendly
• Frédéric (7/5): Bien - Emplacement top Notre chambre donnait sur une cour ou il y avait bcp de machine pour l'air conditionné et ça faisait bcp de bruit la nuit
• Boon (6/5): - Great location, clean and tidy, friendly and helpful staff, particularly the in-house caretaker, Junaid, who worked very hard to keep the place clean and tidy. Thin wood partition wall, no insulation to isolate sound; can hear chatting from the room next door and outside the room, which goes on till past midnight.

• Leonard (6/5): - Staffs are helpful and friendly. My room aircon was leaking, they changed the room for me next day. It is partitioned room, poor sound proof, can hear other guests talking or snoring in the room next door. Wooden flooring from level 1 and above, wooden floor creaks when you walk on it. The handrails on some stairs shake when you hold them. water heaters are old but still OK to use.

• christopher (6/5): OK 👍 - Location Self check in is Simple. Budget accommodation and quiet, IF THE OTHER GUESTS ARE RESPECTFUL 👈. Cardboard walls, I noticed only a one FIRE 🔥 EXTINGUISHER 🧯 ON MY LEVEL. I MIGHT HAVE MISSED IT, BUT I DIDN’T SEE ANY INDICATION OF THE ROUTE TO A FIRE ESCAPE. I’m sure you have fire alarm and smoke detectors fitted, but I didn’t notice them. ??
• IOANNIS (6/5): - Very thin wall.. you listen everything from the next room... Was ok for cheap stay
• Errol (1/5): Arrived at 12am, somehow managed to climb the first set of steps to the first floor. The second flight of steps were so - I had to leave and go elsewhere at 1am The stairs to the upper floors are so narrow and steep without handrails or support, it is a high risk health and safety disaster waiting to happen. I’m surprised no one has sued them yet.
• Li (6/5): -
• Bekir Bülent (4/5): - Merkeze, limana ve restaurant, bar ve sokak yemeklerine yakın Çok karmaşık bir mimarisi var. Mutfak odaya çok uzak, hiç kullanamadım. En kötüsü klima dış ünitesi odamın üzerindeydi. Gürültüden uyuyamadım. Ve fiyatı yüksek.

• Nithichaya (4/5): - สิ่งอำนวยความสะดวกพร้อม ใกล้สถานที่ท่องเที่ยว ห้องเล็กมาก อึดอัดจนหายใจไม่ออก ไม่รู้เพราะอะไร แต่ก็เหมาะสมกับราคาแล้ว ถ้าใครไม่ติดเรื่องห้องเล็ก ที่เหลือก็ถือว่าตอบโจทย์
• Lv (10/5): - Service is good. Staf name junai or june the best staf i ever see. He so nice to all my family Maybe some people who live beside kitchen, because kitchen is common place so if make some noise, people who sleep there must understand. I suggested room beside kitchen no need to rent

• Sarah (10/5): -
• FatimahZahraa' (8/5): -
• Md Raju (10/5): -
• Yanny (8/5): - The bed & pillow very comfy & comfortable. Suitable for budget traveller like us. The wall very thin. So, no privacy & leading to noise other room
• Amber (3/5): Regret choosing this hotel. - Good location. The walls of the room are made of wood, and you can clearly hear the sound of someone entering the password and opening the door. You can also hear the people above you walking on the floor. The room had a bad smell, so you had to keep the ventilator on, but the ventilator was very noisy. The noise and smell made it difficult for me to sleep, I had to go to the airport at 3am, so I chose a room with a shared bathroom to save money ,but I regretted it all night.
• Ruthra (9/5): - The staff name sutharsan ,verey friendly & knowledgeable,highly recommended finally thanks for house keeper junaid we’ll cleaned
• Dedek rizky (10/5): highly recommended to stay at this hostel, i repeat many times - the kitchen was very nice
• emy (7/5): - Good
• emy (10/5): -
• Céline (7/5): Acceptable - L'emplacement est idéal, le personnel est sympathique. Nous avons eu l'impression de dormir dans des boîtes. Très mauvaise isolation nous avons pu entendre les voisins ronfler. Et surtout le plancher du couloir est insupportable la chambre tremble dès que quelqu'un traverse le couloir.
• Milagros (10/5): Supera expectativas - La ubicación es buenísima. Las camas son cómodas, el aire acondicionado es perfecto y está todo bastante limpio. El check in online es muy cómodo. Todo bien.
• Isabela (8/5): Eu gostei. - Simpatia dos funcionários, o quarto era espaçoso, tinha um bom ar condicionado, excelente localização. A casa de banho, não é a melhor, mas serve. Estava sempre limpa, mas as vezes a sanita entupia
• Wye (9/5): Superb -
• Johannes (7/5): Paper walls but close to party - The room is clean and comfortable beds. Toilet and showers are okay and it's easy self check in. The location is amazing, close to the party but far enough to not hear anything in the room. The walls are paper thin. Anything our neighbours said we heard. Also the room is very small and has no window.
• Ziying (8/5): So far so good for staying 1 to 2 night. - Staff was friendly, clean, comfortable It was a bit annoying cause I was not the person who was very pro to use the digital door lock. Always need me to key twice for the door lock password only can entry.
• Emy (8/5): Very good - Good Good
• Tanaka (7/5): Good - The rooms were clean. The no shoes rule especially when using the shared bathroom.
• Davindran (9/5): Splendid - Cozy, comfy and worth for money
• Vinod (8/5): Very good -
• Ls (7/5): Good - Friendly staff, they help with good vibes
• Patrick (8/5): perfect location and value for money - Location was great, easy check-in, all was good for the cost! Bathrooms need updating and cleaning better- people do not flush the toilet, bugs in them etc
• Q (6/5): Pleasant - The shower room
• S (8/5): Very good - I got a decent room, which is pure value for money. Location is also near Gorge town's main attraction. Highly recomandand. As the hotel uses self-check-in with a digital lock on the main door and the room door, for me, sometimes the lock didn't work properly, so I had to wait outside the room/hotel for several minutes
• Abi (2/5): Very poor -
• Johanna (10/5): Exceptional -
• Charlotte (7/5): Good -
• Charlotte (9/5): Superb -
• Loh (9/5): Superb -
• Mohd (5/5): Passable - No bathroom
• John (6/5): Good. No complaints for the price No luxuries - Great value for a budget budget hotel for the price. Good kitchen facilities. One could live there.
• Christopher (5/5): Ok for a short stay - Location is ok Not to much to dislike, very basic shower and toilet facilities
• Georgia (2/5): For the cost it did the job, location was good. - Location was good, that’s the only thing good about this place. Everything. Shared bathrooms were not pleasant, once you showered you felt dirty again within the next 10 minutes. Walls were so thin, we were kept up at night. The room was dark, had no windows. The room key system was so frustrating, it would work one time and not the next. Could hear the people down the corridor having issues with their keypad for about 20 minutes as the sound was so loud (and walls were so thin). There was also no staff around to ask any questions if you needed help with anything. If you’re thinking of staying, don’t bother.
• Anna (7/5): Simple, clean & conviniently located - Great location, walking distance to Love Lane and other attractions. Easy check-in and check-out. Clean and quiet during our stay. There's a small kitchen downstairs, so you can make tea or prepare/reheat a simple meal.
• Nageswaran (7/5): Good -
• Barbara (8/5): Very good -
• Zack (5/5): Passable -
• Kooman (7/5): Good - I enjoyed the location of Swing & Pillows, everything was easy accessible and some shops around! The room is really really noisy, you really need earplugs. During the night we woke up several times from people walking thru the hallway.
• Jim (9/5): Comfortable economical guest house in peaceful central street - Extremely economical stay in great location on beautiful peaceful street. Very friendly staff, comfortable beds and kitchen with tea, coffee, filtered cold water, etc. Highly recommended.
• Kai (8/5): Very good -
• Rami (8/5): Very good -
• Rui-lin (8/5): Very good - Well located, very comfortable beds and pillows, reactive and helpful staff, I had a good stay I asked for a room change because the first room was a bit noisy (street and closed to main door), they switched me to a calm room where I was able to have good rest for the rest of my stay
• Malina (7/5): Good -
