Liked: This hostel is one of the best I have stayed in! Everything was perfect! All the little details that add up to feeling comfortable, at home and happy - nothing has been neglected in this hostel and all the four staff members work cheerfully and constantly to make customers feel welcome in every way!

Disliked: That I couldn't stay longer!

Liked: Loved this hostel. All the rooms have a/c (yah!), exceptionally clean (I've just been watching the cleaning staff turn over a new room - nothing is missed). Very helpful staff, everything is set up for you (from maps to organised trips, to instructions on how to do it yourself). Laundry services are reasonably priced, quick and your clothes come back sparkling. Hot water, plenty of bathrooms, all in all a great stay.

Disliked: You'll need your own toilet paper (no biggie and common in Malaysia).

Liked: A truly fantastic hostel. I'm a keen backpacker but secretly like a few luxuries and this is the perfect mix for a great price. Clean rooms & common areas. Free tea, coffee & toast for breakfast. The team working here seem to be here 24/7 and are always available to help with any questions. From my experience the hostel was quite quiet but there are still several ‘social’ areas to meet fellow travellers. They also offer a few day tours here, which I've heard great reviews of. Kuching is such a small city that is really only takes 10 mins to walk anywhere. This hostel is along a main road just away from the 'main town' but its honestly only a few min walk and very close to some of Kuching’s popular restaurants. Really comfy beds!

Disliked: Can't fault this hostel at all.
