Well the owner of the Guest House ( Mr Chong ) are more friendly and helpful, But you only see him in the weekends. ##### Lee ### 4/10 Poor #### Verified traveller 18 Oct 2011 Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities, room comfort when I read about a luxe twin double room, I expect something different than what I found: a room, with no window, a noisy airco, without a fan, with cardboardwalls through you can hear every thing in the next room. the view of the hall was nice and happily there was a roomcrene so you do not look into the toilets right away... people nice. recommendation is depending of the kind of people. to some i would recommend, however it is in the state of quality quit expensive. ##### Verified traveller ### 8/10 Good #### Sislyn, Spore 27 Sept 2011 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### GREAT LOCATION An unpretentious homely guesthouse at a very convenient location.
