My stay at the hotel was quite pleasant overall. The room felt a bit dated but was clean and comfortable. The staff were helpful and friendly, although one incident caused a slight inconvenience. The location was great, near the waterfront and conveniently close to many tourist attractions. The dining experience was mediocre with limited food options. The facilities offered were satisfactory.

The hotel has a lovely view of the river, but the rooms were noisy, had mildew, smelled damp, and were smaller than expected. Dusty, especially at the bedside lamp. The service was friendly and courteous but had issues with returning deposit money due to a payment receipt discrepancy. The location is near the waterfront and popular food court, with helpful staff. Dining options were limited and uninspiring. Facilities were average.

The hotel is strategically located in the middle of Kuching Waterfront, making it a fantastic spot with easy access to many attractions. The rooms, however, appear smaller than expected and may not be suitable for large luggages. The service was friendly overall but lacked proactiveness in providing information on local attractions. The dining experience could be improved in terms of taste consistency and variety, although some dishes were enjoyable. The facilities are a bit run-down but adequate.

I had a pleasant stay at the hotel. The rooms were spacious and exactly as shown in the pictures when I booked, making it convenient for me to relax. Having a water heater jug in the room saved me the trouble of going to the lobby every time I wanted a hot drink. The service was a mixed experience, as I had to go to the hotel next door to book a taxi due to Grab not working, and the hostess's attempt to arrange transportation was minimal. However, the housekeeping staff was quite helpful during my stay. The location of the hotel was excellent, being very close to the picturesque waterfront and offering easy access to various amenities like restaurants, a night market, and shopping centers. The dining experience was somewhat disappointing, with room service breakfast being below my expectations. The facilities at the hotel were adequate for my needs, but there were some misses that affected the overall experience.

My stay at the hotel was a mixed experience. While the room I had lacked a window and was not fully ready when I arrived, the good Wi-Fi signal was a plus. The staff was friendly and helpful, but there was a minor issue with entering my room abruptly after knocking. The hotel's strategic location near the Waterfront and close to food options in Kuching made it convenient for sightseeing and dining, with some room for improvement in the dining area. Overall, it offered decent value for money considering its proximity to key tourist spots.

My stay at the hotel was a mix of convenience and discomfort. The rooms are basic but offer hot and cold showers and a TV, making it easy to explore nearby attractions on foot.
