Nice staff but need more TLC
Start off with the good part. Staff was friendly and welcoming. Ample parking in the area. Community area was nice, great pantry and common living area to mingle and laugh. Rooms are ermmm... pathetic looking. Sandy bedsheets, dusty floors and the toilet definitely need some major overhaul. The towels are probably older than me, yellowish, thin and rough. gonna give good eco points for that. The wall sockets are located on weird places. Gets quite noisy at night with the traffic passing below and the chickens howling in the morning. Need earplugs

Very knowledgeable & friendly hosts! Rooms and overall building were very clean and well-maintained. Only complain was the lack of heating/humidity control; the bed linens felt almost "damp", making them feel a bit cold.

It’s been a great experience, we felt like at home here. The staff were super nice with us with any questions or things that we needed. The room was very clean and comfortable. But the best thing for us was the tour that we organised with them, it was just awesome!! Our guide, Jason, was amazing, such a knowledgable person, we learnt so much with him, not just about botanical plants from Malaysia, but also about history and culture. Great experience thanks to him! If we come back we know where to go!

Nice and secluded place to stay but the house rules are a bit weird. We can't wear shoes inside the house or the reception. It felt awkward to remove shoes everytime.

Response from Val. on Nov 14, 2018
Dear Tj, Thank you for your feedback. Indeed, most guesthouses will ask you to remove your shoes inside as we welcome you as if in our homes. In all Asian Cultures, it is a a sign of due respect to remove one's shoes before you enter somebody's place. Thank you for understanding and we wish you happy discovery of this beautiful region. Have fun.

Overall the price value ratio was good. We had a room with our own bathroom. Everything was clean what is the most important thing. However, a lot of things weren’t working. E.g. the cafe where they serve breakfast was closed. Also they dont have wifi and pretended it was not their fault but that WiFi wasn’t working anywhere in town. As we discovered this was not true since a cafe down the road had WiFi and the hotel itself had a protected WiFi. They just didn’t want us to use it. Being lied to just made the stay very unpleasant. Having to ask for toilet paper because they didn’t provide enough in the room added to this. Also our room was right next to the shared terrace so we could hear every word being spoken which was especially annoying at night.

Response from The Management on Nov 11, 2018
Dear Anonymous, We are deeply sorry for your discomfort during your stay with us. To be fair, please let us explain: Breakfast is not included in the room price and the Café is now closed as the chef has taken leave for the low season. However, if asked, we are always happy to share good advice on food. E.g: the small local outlets less than 5-minute walking from our guesthouse. Agreed, last Monday, we were all very frustrated when we had no or poor connexion from 10am to 7pm all over the region. We are very very sorry that you felt we “lied”. If we had known that some places had internet, we would have showed them to you. Why would we advertise our Wifi and not let you use it? We can assure you that now everything is working fine. We apologise however that our housekeeping forgot to provide extra toilet paper when they cleaned your room. We reminded them to check more carefully in the future. At last, we regret that you had to suffer some noisy evenings. We trust our guests to keep the noise at the minimum during quiet hours (10pm to 8am: as ostentatiously reminded all over the building). We are only sad that we were not informed the next morning as we could have moved you to a quieter room. Still, we thank you for your review: it reminds us to always keep vigilance on our guests’ well-being. Please note that we are always encouraging our guests to come to speak to us if any unease should arise during their stay; so that we can handle the situation in the best manner possible. In the meantime, please enjoy your trip around Malaysia. Kind Regards,

This place is so great! Lives up to the hype!
This place takes service to the next level. The moment we arrived, we were warmly greeted and told about all the things happening locally over the few days we were going to be there. They accompanied us to the Chinese festival happening and helped us understand and participate, which was so cool and made all the difference for our trip! We also did the mossy forest walk and tea plantation tour with their guide Raju, who was incredibly friendly and passionate and knowledgeable- I can’t recommend him enough! Great stay all around!
