What recent reviews say

Guests consistently report spacious, clean rooms and attentive staff at a reasonable price. Michelle and Kelly are named for exceptional service. Pet owners return because animals are treated with genuine care. Location near Hamilton Walk is walkable to attractions. Minor niggles: one fan noise complaint, and reviewers noted missing bath mats and shower cubicles.

A large terrace house suitable for student groups and families on a tight budget, though reviewers note aging facilities and connectivity issues. The owner is welcoming and the space sleeps 10-12 comfortably, but air conditioning, wifi, and bedding quality are inconsistent.

Older guests consistently praise clean rooms, low prices, and the owner Mr. Athiong's helpfulness, plus the location near hospitals and markets. However, recent years have brought friction: management has posted notices saying homestays are not permitted under building rules, residents have complained, and a discriminatory sign targeting Indonesians appeared.
