    It would have helped if there was complimentary water as there are no shops nearby.

    The view of the sea was amazing from the balcony and bedroom. There was a washing machine and a clothes dryer on the balcony. We were met by Connie, who had kept in contact about checking in. The bed was really comfortable. It was easy to get a Grab into town and to the airport. It was a good size apartment, perfect for a stopover before our next flight.

    Cleaning should be improved. Especially the kitchen floor.

    The environment is very good. The power went out suddenly at night until morning, but fortunately the agent apologized sincerely and assisted in refunding the rent for that day."

    The remote control battery need to be change haha already told the host on this and they say they will change. And the bed in the second room broke. Other than that everything is very worth it!

    This place feels like home. Very clean and neat. Spacious parking lot. Guarded community. The host is very nice and responsive to any quiry. Thank you so much! Will definitely stay here again for the next trip. Keep up the quality and good work ms Connie!

    The flat is in a gated residential area far out of town on a hill. We did not have a rental car and had to rely on taxis, which did not like to go to this area. There is only one small supermarket nearby which is a 15 minute walk downhill and uphill. There were problems with the drain being blocked at one of the toilets. Fortunately there was a second toilet available.

    A very spacious and modern flat with two bathrooms and well-functioning air conditioning. The large windows offer a beautiful view over the city to the sea.

    We had no problem! :)

    We stayed here during our honeymoon Malaysian trip for a few days. Great location, by Grab everything is easy to reach! We have been in contact with Connie via WhatsApp. Connie was very nice, responsive, helpful :)! Thanks again!!!!! The apartment is very clean!!! Fridge is huge, washing machine works perfectly, bed is very comfy, view is great, AC is clean and works well, towels are new and very clean. We had a great stay, next time for sure we will stay here again :) I highly recommend this flat for couples or even for bigger families since there are 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms plus a livingroom! (By Grab, Harbour Mall area was 6 minutes, Sepilok 35 minutes, Airport 18 minutes, Heritage Trail sites 10 minutes….) Thanks again :) !!! Best wishes from Hungary! Bogi&Valentin

    Some more plates and bigger pots, there is a kitchen but the utensils were a bit basic.

    The flat is new and located in a condo with pool an gym facilities. It is on an high floor so you have a wonderful view on the city and the surrounding areas. There are two bathrooms, both news and quite wide. The bed is very confortable and has as well as an amazing view. The condo is just a very short ride from the city centre and restaurants and other shops. Collecting the keys was also super easy, the host gave us very clear instructions.

    Kitchen was not well equiped, small electric stove, good for heating something small, not enough for proper cooking.

    The place was very clean and nice to stay. The kitchen was small and equiped. Large bedroom and great view from the 15th floor. There is a pool available with a gym as well. Modern building.

    The cleaning was not done really well. The coffee table needs to be replaced. There is no basic kitchen things provided such as coffee/tea/sugar, cooking oil, salt pepper, so you need to buy everything if you want to cook. Bathroom joints of sink seriously molded It is far from city centre and in a residential area (no shops nearby) so better avoid it unless you have your own transportation. It could be much better with few improvements.

    Comfortable for family of 4. Great sea view. Comfortable beds. Swimming pool, playground.

    The owner asked me to go to a long distance to have the key and didn’t tell me in advance! It took me so much time and money! She also told”If any security ask.. dont tell homestay. Just say going to your friend house”. Why? I paid for it, why I need to visit like a thief. There is no restaurant around the place and we need to take a taxi to go out to have food. The room is dirty, she put rags in the washing machine and told me they’re the things from previous visitors. And also, the bed is broken. I don't know how to evaluate this house.

    The view is as the picture showed.
