The homestay fell sharply in guest satisfaction over time. Recent visitors report broken air conditioning units, weak water pressure, and poor soundproofing that made sleep difficult. Most damaging was the host's handling of complaints: guests say they were offered only a police report suggestion rather than repair or meaningful redress. Older reviews praised the space and location, but current conditions and service attitude have tarnished trust.
Guests consistently praise M12 for its clean, spacious rooms and thoughtful vintage decor that feels welcoming for family groups. The owner's friendliness and willingness to maintain the property (like servicing air-con before check-in) stand out, though a few visitors reported dust under beds and missing basics like complimentary tea or adequate parking.
