Perfect for quiet little bungalows by a pool
Pros:

For those wanting something quiet and more local. i felt i stayed in a homestay/guesthouse. It is about 10 min from a beach and the Hidden (for fireshow) . We had a cute little wooden bungalow. The pool was the best bit and you can use it anytime and from there we saw monkeys, squirels and even a water monitor wandering around and they have cutest cats too.Everyone even the water monitor had names which i loved . Super friendly staff. Basic accomodation but everything worked, inc aircon and wifi. The owner always there to answer questions and give you tips with a smile . Although a few other guests, we always had the pool to ourselves and so nice to be able to have early morning and late night swims to cope with the heat.

Cons:

When we first arrived , it seems quite run down and a bit abandoned but it was just the reception area. The place must have been a little paradise pre-covid, but once we went past that we loved it and would totally stay there again. A shame they do not do breakfast but hardly any accomodation in malaysia seems to nowadays. You are a little off the main beach, shopping area but easy walk there. A bit further to the more happening beaches but easy to get a grab there and back. We had a triple room but only 2 chairs on the balcony, so extra one would be handy but apart from that one of my favorite accomodation in Malaysia.

nie wieder
Cons:

Anlage ist mehr als in die Jahre gekommen. Renovieren reicht nicht aus. Zimmer zu klein und total veraltet und gruselig.
Und zudem die ganze Nacht laute Bass Geräusche zu hören

Pros:

Det är ett naturnära boende med ett bra läge mellan bägge badstränderna. Vårt rum fungerade utmärkt, luftkonditioneringen var effektiv och det fanns varmvatten i duschen. Ett stort tack till värden Dan som servade oss med allt vi behövde.

Cons:

Generellt är boendet slitet (men vårt rum var alldeles utmärkt). Jag tycker att man får mycket för pengarna om man bor här.

Pros:

Хорошее расположение, не далеко до пляжа, до Ченанга можно дойти за 20 минут, рядом есть кафе и пункт обмена валюты. Большой , хороший бассейн, работает круглосуточно. Большая, зелёная территория, у бассейна есть шезлонги и столики.

Cons:

Это не отель , а апартаменты, уборки нет. Всё очень старое и немного запущенное, требуется ремонт.

Hate to have to give this rating as could be so nice
Pros:

The location and staff were good.

Cons:

There was rats in the room. The Aircon didn't work properly. They said they lost the remote control and ordered a new one but it never got too cool and the new remote didn't work. TV remote missing. Lots of drilling late at night. Noisy club next door playing techno some nights. Swimming pool dirty.

Agréablement surprise par cet endroit qui se refait une beauté, à proximité de tout !
Pros:

L'endroit un peu en retrait de la rue principale se révèle très accueillant. Le personnel sympathique et attentionné travaille fort pour restorer ce resort dont ils ont repris la gestion et lui redonner fière allure. La piscine, propre, avec sa chute d'eau, et l'ambiance relaxe, font de cet endroit un hébergement tout indiqué pour ceux qui ont envie de s'offrir une expérience plus authentique de la Malaisie. Pour un 2 étoiles, c'est un très bon rapport qualité/prix!

Cons:

Il y a un bar (Dark Night Club) non loin de l'établissement qui peut se révéler dérangeant pour certains, lorsqu'il est ouvert. En le sachant d'emblée, et avec une paire de bouchons, on s'y fait rapidement.

Vergane glorie
Pros:

De ligging was goed. Het zwembad prima in een mooie omgeving. De eigenaren/personeel waren heel vriendelijk. De airco werkte heel goed

Cons:

Heeft nog veel opknapwerk nodig. De elektriciteit van het verwarmingselement voor het warm water in de badkamer is aan elkaar gemaakt met lusterklemmen. Prioriteit zou veiligheid moeten zijn. Een likje verf op de badkamermuur zou wonderen doen. Jammer dat er over de gehele accomodatie veel rommel en afval ligt. Je hebt geen geld nodig om dit probleem aan te pakken. Met de juiste inzichten kan het een zeer mooie accomodatie worden.

Im Bungalow annehmbar
Pros:

Der Bungalow, den ich gegen das unbewohnbare Zimmer tauschen konnte. Er ist geräumig, großes Bett, großes Bad, genügend Ablageflächen.
Auch das Pool ist gut.
Das Personal ist sehr freundlich.
Die Lage ist sehr gut.

Cons:

Die Zimmer sind extrem klein, ein Bett, eine Kommode, auf der ein riesiger Fernseher steht, der nicht funktioniert, keine Ablageflächen, winziges Bad. Der Fernseher funktionierte auch im Bungalow nicht.
Die Bilder und Beschreibung auf booking.com stimmen mit der Wirklichkeit nicht überein!
Die gesamte Anlage ist desolat heruntergekommen und ungepflegt.
Wenn ich das Zimmer nicht gegen den Bungalow hätte tauschen können, wäre ich wieder abgereist.
Schade, der Platz wäre sehr schön!
