“Peaceful location to clean the city noise out of your ears and rebalance your soul.”
Helpful staff, especially Oscar. I was perhaps lucky that I was more or less the only guest there which suited me perfectly for a rural rehab after two nights in a lousy hotel in Kuching city. The weak phone signal coverage made it easier to concentrate on reading a good book. The bird song was delightful.

“Back to basic long house living”
Long house like lodging, in the midst of far away land with fresh air, unblocked view of trees /mountain The staff was very friendly, and allowed us upgrade to air conditioning unit at additional charges of RM10 Kindly provided us a kettle to boil hot water for drinking.

“"Value of money not worth with the hype."”
I do love the environment, but during our stays, there's no other people surround us & it's so quiet during night time, makes us concern a lot abt safety.

Where can I even start.. We stayed two nights. The rooms were rather expensive for what we got. My friend and I rented two rooms. We wanted to spend one night each in one room and stay together in the second night. I checked in my room and the mattress sagged in the middle, which made it very hard to sleep. I actually ended up sleeping on the floor, that was more comfortable. No sink in the room, windows couldnt close and no Moskito nets. When I checked out the next day, they wanted me to pay more on top. I paid 50RM for the night and the next morning they told me oh actually the room is 70Rm a night, please pay another 20RM. (Which of course, I didn't) They lost my tourist tax and told me I wouldn't have paid it. (Paid 10 RM again next day) When I checked out, they wanted to keep my security deposit, telling me they already gave it back to me... It took a lot of talking to get it back. I don't really understand what brings people so far out here, because there is not really much to enjoy. Can't recommend, sorry
