What recent reviews say
Every review praises the scale and comfort of Kak Sim's home. Three large air-conditioned bedrooms, two dining tables seating eight each, a sprawling living room, and a fully stocked kitchen suit groups of 10-15 people. Prayer mats, Quran, telekung, a sitting chair for elderly guests, and clear qibla marking appeal to Muslim families.

Most guests praise the friendly owner and convenient spot near the train and hospitals, but a recent one-star review flagged serious dust throughout, damaged mattress springs, and only two usable bedrooms despite ads showing three. The cleanliness complaint stands in sharp contrast to older five-star reviews mentioning a clean house.
