Bon rapport qualité prix
Pros:

Petit déjeuner simple mais suffisant. Personnel agréable. Bonne situation par rapport au centre ville et aux sites touristiques Des bouteilles d'eau sont offertes chaque jour. Wifi correct.

Cons:

l'hôtel étant actuellement rénovation (bruit 9-17h), nous avons du changer de chambre car l'odeur de peinture était trop forte.
il n'y a pas de bouilloire dans la chambre contrairement au descriptif et une seule paire de chausson pour une chambre de 2 personnes ... un peu bizarre

Gute Lage für Stadterkundung und Touren
Pros:

Gemütliches Hotel mit tollem Personal! Das Frühstück ist ausgezeichnet und bietet die Möglichkeit, auch asiatisch (z.B. gebratener Reis, Nudeln und Currys) und nicht nur kontinental zu essen! Unser Zimmer war sehr geräumig, auch Bad und Dusche boten ausreichend Platz.

Cons:

Wir hatten ein Zimmer ohne Fenster, was wir auch so gebucht hatten. Leider konnten wir nicht ahnen, dass direkt neben uns eine vierköpfige Familie einquartiert war. Zwischen den Zimmern gab es eine Durchgangstür aus Holz, weshalb man jedes Husten und natürlich die spielenden Kinder hören konnte. Wegen zwei Nächten haben wir das jedoch nicht an der Rezeption reklamiert, hätten wir aber definitiv beim einem längeren Aufenthalt.

Bonne adresse à Kuching
Pros:

L’amabilité du personnel, la proximité du centre-ville, le petit-déjeuner

Cons:

L’insonorisation des chambres (on entend tout ce qui se passe dans les chambres voisines), mais cet établissement étant en pleine rénovation, gageons que les améliorations effectuées sauront y remédier. Une piscine serait aussi la bienvenue.

Nice hotel overall
Pros:

Overall, this is a nice hotel with very helpful and friendly reception staff, and room cleaned to a high standard. Bed was very comfortable and decor was nice. Very good location too.

Cons:

The internal construction work throughout the 9 days i stayed there. I accepted that work was being undertaken between 9 and 5, but the drilling was sometimes so loud that it felt like it was in the room. Upon my request I received a complimentary coffee, and I put up with it. However to be woken up at 8.15am (on a weekend) by interior construction work is not acceptable I think. But of course renovation work will be completed st some point in the future, and as I say its nice hotel overall.
