What recent reviews say

Guests consistently praise the authentic kampung feel, attentive staff (particularly Iylia, Ani, and Let), and included activities like river trips and durian tastings. The setting is quiet and picturesque; meals are homemade and filling, though access requires a narrow winding road.

Based on limited recent reviews, so treat this as low-confidence.

Most guests enjoy the peaceful setting and tidy rooms; some note kind staff and nearby shops. However, at least one review flagged toilet water problems and poor maintenance checks, so conditions may be inconsistent.
