What recent reviews say

Budget homestay in Arau with multiple rooms and dormitories for groups. Owners praised as friendly; rooms described as clean and comfortable. Older reviews flagged door maintenance and poor internet; recent reviews consistently positive.

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