While the property itself is purposely build and quite big for a typical homestay, but it's run like a homestay and feels like it. It's a 2 storey building with many rooms - but has no lobby or reception or anything like it, if you dont see the friendly owner('s family members) around, you just call their phone numbers and they will immediately assist you. They won't ask you for deposit when checking in and are easy going. But also means cash only - don't expect to be able to make any payment per cards or such. It seems to be a place where some Malaysian families or group of friends gather over the weekend over a picnic or BBQ (yes there is a pit). The rooms itself provides comfy beds, aircon and has a simple bathroom in the room (the information on booking.com seems wrong as it mentioned the triple rooms having bathrooms outside). Amenities like hairdryer are provided outside in the common area, as well like the water dispenser where you can also can make tea/coffee. There is a pantry where you can wash your utensils and while breakfast is not provided, there are even bread/cakes available in case you need a quick snack. (Anyway - for proper B'fast I'd recommend to hop into the town which is like 3 min away with car to get the wonderful local hawker delicacies). On the roof they have a cosy...While the property itself is purposely build and quite big for a typical homestay, but it's run like a homestay and feels like it.

They have rooms with different sizes, so while we booked a triple room and asked for extra bed as we were a family of four, we were moved to a 5-bed room where they took away the 5th (spare) bed as the standard triple couldn't fit in an extra bed. Online booking sites are not showing all available room types, contact them directly if need to book larger rooms (there are room for groups too).
Only small problem we had was the wifi which was not working properly - but that's all. As a simple, upsized homestay, for what you pay per night, it is quite a good place.More
