What recent reviews say
Family groups and repeat visitors praise the clean rooms, walking distance to Pangkor beach, and owner Lim's friendliness. One experienced guest reported pricing hikes for returning customers and unwanted interruptions from the owner pushing boat tours, though the overwhelming majority describe comfortable, well-equipped stays.
Based on limited recent reviews, so treat this as low-confidence.
