What recent reviews say

Guests consistently praise the owner's hospitality, clean rooms, and tranquil setting near hot springs in Ulu Legong. Breakfast (nasi lemak and roti canai) comes included. Most find the rates reasonable for families and those seeking a local village experience. One past dispute over checkout timing and a toilet ventilation complaint stand out among otherwise glowing feedback.

Based on limited recent reviews, so treat this as low-confidence.
