Uncle Homestay is a very friendly, comfortable and convenient place to stay in Kuala Terengganu. The owner is both very accomodating and helpful. Reading some of the negative reviews I wonder whether the reviewer spoke with the owner about their problems with the homestay. If they had I believe those problems would have been taken care of.
One thing I can clarify is that there are two very different types of room at Uncle Homestay. The more comfy ones with A/C and ensuite toilets are great. The cheaper ones are very basic, but fair value for the price. We stayed in an A/C room upstairs for 80 RM which was great value for comfort. We don't like A/C so the owner brought in a big standing fan for us. There is also a comfy lounge area outside the better rooms.
One thing that the owner requested was that people phone him either when making a booking
( ideal ) or when they arrive in Terengganu because the Homestay can be a little hard to find. It is near the bus station, but the sign board is small.
We were quite content with our stay at Uncle Homestay and happily recommend it.More
