What recent reviews say

Most guests find the homestay clean, comfortable, and well-priced for the budget category, praising the owner's friendliness and proximity to Parit Buntar town. One older complaint cited maintenance gaps like a broken washing machine and insufficient cooling, though recent reviews show improvements and upgrades.

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

Half the guests loved the pool and value; the other half found rooms dirty, moldy, cramped, and nothing like the photos. Bin Ramli keeps affordable prices and works well for small children, but upkeep is erratic and photos on Facebook don't match reality.

Every guest rated this a five-star stay. Families praise the clean, comfortable rooms, spacious yard, and well-kept pool-the owner refreshes pool water between guests and treats repeat visitors warmly. Location near Parit Buntar town, Bagan Serai, and USM Kerian campus adds convenience; pricing stays affordable.
