Only giving one star for the nice receptionist.
We checked in to the room and were greeted by the smell of mould. We left our belongings to go get dinner and on our return we find a COCKROACH. It was slowly clambering across the bed. We immediately went downstairs and explained the situation to the hotel receptionist. He very kindly removed our luggage (whereupon he saw the cockroach) and offered us an alternative room. We didn't want to stay in such an unclean and foul smelling accommodation so we asked the receptionist whether we would get a refund if we immediately checked out to go to a different hotel.
The receptionist advised us that by contacting booking.com (who we had booked via) we should be able to undergo the process of getting a refund. He did not say anything about collecting evidence or taking a photo / video of the cockroach. The receptionist said we can get a refund without any charges.
We requested the refund through Booking.com as per protocol. Booking.com told us they sent an email to the hotel requesting confirmation of a refund but it was not answered. We had to call the hotel ourselves multiple times as they did not respond to Booking.com’s email for over 10 days. We were initially told we couldn't get a refund at all as we had no evidence of there being a cockroach. We asked them to ask the hotel receptionist who saw the cockroach.
After a few more calls chasing this up, we were then told by the hotel that we were only eligible for a 60% refund due to their refund policy. We tried looking online for this refund policy and could not find it. We contacted them asking whether we can get a full refund or at least where in their policy it is mentioned that we can only get a partial refund. They told us to look on their website and after we explained that we cannot find it, backtracked and told us they cannot show their refund policy to guests.
OYO management also explicitly told us that we will only be getting 60% back due to us having stayed for one night. This is not true. We checked out the same calendar day, within 4 hours of us having checked in. We did not stay overnight as we checked out before midnight. The beds were in fact untouched, as the hotel receptionist could have verified.
The customer service refused to listen and abruptly hung up. When we called again, the OYO customer service lady CLARA was rude, snappy and had a go at us for calling them multiple times (which was necessary for us to do as they ignored Booking.com). She also refused to talk to us for more than 10 minutes saying it's not in their policy, but wouldn't share this policy or the refund policy but still said we should be aware of it. OYO customer service lady CLARA was incredibly disrespectful and acted as if we were the ones inconveniencing her despite them retaining our money and not even providing a basic service, and she kept interrupting and talking over us. It has been three months and they have not even given our 60% refund back. 161.36RM wasted. This may seem like a small amount but we are students and everything counts.
TLDR; DO NOT STAY. They are thieves and scammers with disgusting dirty rooms.

- Rimo (4/5): Disappointing -
- Abg (9/5): Superb -
- Cik (4/5): Disappointing - Clean Shower didnt work like before
- Zaiwani (6/5): Additional Charge - The location is quite good with a few restaurants nearby. I stayed at the hotel from 15/12/24 to 17/12/24. Upon payment i was charged an additional fee of RM40 which wasn't in the booking.com reservation.
According to the front desk staff OYo has offered a lower price that wasn't the hotel's minimum standard price.
About the room i don't expect much. The bed sheet a bit smelly & yellowish. No housekeeping.
Never to this hotel again.
- Zaiwani (7/5): Good -
- Znorahim (3/5): Poor -
- Roy (1/5): Bad - No room cleaning
- Fauzy (7/5): Good -
- Sharifah (7/5): Good - They charged extra (RM8 per night) upon check in since the price i paid for in the app was a bit cheaper (isn't that the whole point of using this app? To get cheaper rates??) Was so pissed but i paid anyways.

- Damian (1/5): Don’t stay here if you have a better choice - It’s near to city. The hygiene of the room is very terrible. The bed sheet has many yellow stains including the pillows. Seems like never change. No shower gel no toiletries but a soap was given upon requested. The water flow is not high. No bottle water and have to go lobby to collect water. The price is not same as stated online. I was charge extra rm20 upon arrival as they said it is the minimum charge for the room, the online price is just for reference. The stay was terrible.

very noisy, from the other rooms and from construction of the opposite hotel (not the fault of this hotel), and from the steamboat restaurants in the evening
parking lot smells like fish from the restaurants

- Fizah (4/5): Disappointing - I didn't like how the receptionist told me they would charge me more if they process my booking as they explained that they were actually not allowed to charge the promoted price on the site. They said I could either pay the price ($75) or cancel my booking and do a walk in instead ($65)
Kinda wished they didn't do false advertisement

- mye (8/5): - Overall, it's ok. Except for the wifi. Hardly can connect to wifi. Nevertheless, everything is good.
- Noor (10/5): - Friendly staff. Just need a little adjustment on the tv. Not clear and could not watched some of the channels.
- Swety (10/5): - Large room n friendly staff...
- Donovan (4/5): - This hotel is old-school and retro. Good and easy access to food.
- Teoh (8/5): Good. Recommended - It’s a quite place. Surrounded by eating places.
- francoise (8/5): Good promenade in Kuching. - Very big, clean and confortable room. Lift
Good area for sea food
10 mn from waterfront. Easy to go around by foot.
Reception very helpful for every need.
- Jamie (8/5): Affordable and clean - Location was only 10 min walk to city center.
Room was clean and spacious. I booked a double room. Hotel is very quiet. The building itself is not in great shape.
Wifi is slow at times but is able to reach room.
Service is good.
Air con very good.
- Stephen (8/5): Good budget hotel, big rooms, fantastic shower. - Large clean rooms, basic facilities but comfortable, fantastic hot shower. I was there for 4 nights, if you want room serviced please ask at reception in the morning. Staff will try and help with any requests but limited English but keep trying, they organised a taxi for me at 4.30am, happy with that.
Local area is interesting 4-5 Chinese steamboat restaurants as well as a malay one offering some western food. There are around 5 or so bars very close by, but they were closed in their off season.
Walking into the city is fairly easy, taking about 10-15 mins walk, to get to the river, quickest way is straight out the hotel to the main road and turn right.
Overall, I enjoyed my stay, very good value for money and a more local feel rather than touristy.
Wifi on the floors is pretty poor but decent in the lobby, not a big issue for me.
- Domoni (8/5): Great clean hotel, just a bit shabby on the outsid - The rooms are spacious and clean. You get what you pay for basically. The bathroom was clean and the shower was hot and the air con worked like a dream.
The staff were also friendly and helpful.
The walk to the supermarket or waterfront is only about 20 mins away so its not too far out. In the surrounding streets were some fantastic and very popular restaurants.
I would definitely stay here again. Value for money.
- MOHD FIRDAUS (8/5): Good stay good condition good place n near to eat - Overall aspect is ok... near 4 restorant can choice to eat.
- Wellington (6/5): - the staff is helpful and the room is bigger than other hotel that is much expensive.
- Ken (8/5): - Great location across the street from an awesome seafood (See Foody) restaurant and walking distance to the waterfront promenade. Our room was huge; 2 rooms actually with 4 beds. Good A/C as well.
- Verified traveler (8/5): Incredible value for money. - Clean good room just as looks on pictures. Great base to then explore Kuching.
- 198rachellev (8/5): Suprisingly good! - Great hotel in Kuching! The rooms are pretty cheap but look like you’re in a four star hotel. Staff is really nice and they clean everyday. The wifi is good and the location is also fine. Almost everything is walking distance. Great value for money.
- Giovanni (10/5): Good address. I will back again. - OK
- jenjinjea (10/5): Value for Money - Room - spacious newly renovated rooms
Location - located near the city center, walking distance
Amenities - Pretty good and complete
Though it may look a little old from the outside, but the renovated rooms are really of standard and for the price you pay, it's a bang for the buck.
- kee (4/5): Hotel close to restaurant - Checking and found 2 dead cockroachs on the bath room floor. Parking the car can be hassle cause no specific space arrangement. Night time can be tough to find a place to park as the restaurant is pack with dinners.. Overall rating is 2/5
