The air-conditioned accommodation is 7.5 km from Borneo Convention Centre Kuching. The apartment features a sauna and a lift. I stayed at this homestay for 4 days and 3 nights, and I was very satisfied with the experience. The house was clean, comfortable, and well-equipped. The host was also very responsive and helpful — I was able to extend my checkout until the afternoon with a small additional charge, and everything was handled smoothly. Overall, I highly recommend this place and would definitely stay here again.

This apartment features free private parking, full-day security and free WiFi. The accommodation provides luggage storage space, a concierge service and currency exchange for guests. Hotel doesn’t quite have a usual front desk, but this isn’t an issue at all… we were easily able to check in and very quickly be settled into our room even arriving 2:00 AM in dead of night after our flight. The room is superbly cleaned and very comfortable. Hotel staff are very reachable, responsive, and accommodating every need. About 3x the normal tea and coffee for use in the room (which I liked). Though we didn’t need it I was also happy to have the option for parking and baggage storage.
