Très bien
Pros:

Le confort des chambres, le petit déjeuner très bon. Bien situé.

Cons:

Le bâtiment n’est pas du tout insonorisé donc on entend beaucoup la rue … les bruits de moto.

Et l’établissement n’a pas de proposition d’activités sur la région donc ils ne donnent pas du tout de renseignements sur ce qu’il y a à faire dans Kuching.

Great stay for a solo trip, but would not recommend for people sensitive to noise.
Pros:

Very central location and was within walking distance to the Sarawak river and other attractions. Staff were attentive and polite, and attended to my requests professionally.

Cons:

The hotel is situated by the main road, and traffic noises were quite loud even after I requested to be on a higher floor.
