Reviewer Type: Solo Traveller
Travel Purpose: leisure
Positive: I really enjoyed my stay. I originally booked 2 nights but ended up cancelling my private room I had pre-booked elsewhere to stay here in the dorms. I stayed between tours for 5 nights in total. The property is clean, spacious, bed is the comfiest I’ve had in 4 months of travel. Great kitchen facilities and can also pay a small amount to use the washing machine and dryer which you’ll need if returning from a tour. Nasir is friendly and helpful, check in/out is easy with the instructions given, and communication was quick over WhatsApp at all times. There is also a WhatsApp number for transport to Sepilok which I recommend using as it is cheap and the driver is lovely.
Negative: The only suggestion I have is for more shelves and pegs in bathroom area. One shower had no pegs and the sinks had nowhere to put things. A little table would go a long way.
Summary: Comfortable and clean
