Tiny House Kami Permatang Pauh

5.0(20)✓ Google-verified

Guests consistently praise the tiny house for cleanliness, design, and capacity despite its size. Accommodation sleeps 6-10 across two levels with full kitchen facilities, strong water pressure, and thoughtful touches like check-in snacks. The peaceful rice field location and proximity to restaurants satisfy families seeking quiet getaways. The host replies quickly and offers local food tips. One recurring note: WiFi can drop at night, and the upper bedroom requires advance air-con running to feel cool. Reviewers overlook these minor issues, calling the space good value and highly suitable for families or groups planning week-long stays. Many return or plan to return.
