Sunset Homestay - Backpacker Hostel Self Checkin

Friendly staff. There is a washing machine and dryer at this place.

Mattress is uncomfy.

La ubicación

Los baños ,la falta de agua filtrada para beber,la cocina, toallas,papel etc.etc.

Location was great for city centre Kuching. Very clear instructions for self check in. Host was very responsive on what's app. No queues for the bathroom facilities. Good airconditioning and wifi.You get what you pay for.

Need to pay extra for luggage storage on day of check out. Cleanliness was not up to the standard that I have experienced throughout most of my travels in southeast asia. From the photos it was difficult to see that some of the dorm beds are along the corridor so earplugs and eyemask are a must.

It feels like a prison, the facilities are stone old, you can hear everything and it’s not even social.

Great. Satisfied.

Suitable for introvert like me. Im working outside kuching and always sends outstation here so this is my best choice if im too lazy too go back to my place. Price worth

Nothing.

Very nice for me, i came from another district in sarawak and often outstation in kuching so this is the best place to stay!

Affordable & easy to booking

The room rate per night was very cheap and the location of the hostel was fantastic!

The air conditioner in the block was so cold that I got up several times. Are the lockers without padlocks in the block meaningful? The room was quite dirty, with a lot of hair and a fruit seed. The blanket was so slim that It couldn't keep me warm. The kitchen in the common area was dirty and moldy. It needs cleaning.

Convenient location, safe accommodation and residential environment

Cleanliness of the bathroom and kitchen can be improved

价格实惠，对面有个小超市，离亚答街500米左右

在走廊上的床位，只要有人经过就很吵，需自备耳塞。要用转换头才能充电！这很不方便

the location was fine.

In terms of cleanness this place is just limit. The dormitory was very cold.

Wszystko co potrzebne było na miejscu, łazienki na plus. Jasna instrukcja jak się zameldować i bardzo doceniam podróżnicze wskazówki na tablicy głównej ! Wynajmowałam łóżko w pokoju dziewczęcym było cicho i czysto

Comfy bed, female dorms and communal area

Cutlery was dirty, lack of atmosphere

Easy location to Kuching centre. Easy instructions for self check in. Towel provided

Bed slightly uncomfortable and thin pillow. Nowhere to store luggage so has to sit in small gap at the bottom of bed. Bathrooms ok. Common area has standard table and chairs, nothing comfy

交通位置好，老板娘很随和，我第二次居住在这里了

Good property in city center. Very easy to go to any place from here

It is self check-in so nobody is there to help you. No staff at any time

Posizione. Letti abbastanza comodi. Comodo check in e check out.

Aria condizionata troppo forte. Si lamentavano tutti. La camera sembra un frigorifero. Un po piu di pulizia nelle aree comuni, in 2 giorni non hanno mai svuotato i secchi.

Very easy access to everything in kuching. Start from kuching waterfront to tourist spot

Nah overall is good

The staff was friendly and helpful. She provided clear instructions with pictures. The location is strategic, a few minutes away from Kuching Waterfront, The Hills mall, bars, and several convenience stores. The place has a washing machine (RM 3 per wash), pantry at the common area and in the female hostel.

I accidentally booked the female privates instead of the male one but the staff was responsive and helped ammend my booking. Location was great, convenient street parking at the side.

Barebones but it's a hostel so it's expected.

Good

Good

It's fine for one night just to sleep.

Good location and facilities. The staff sent detailed instructions via WhatsApp on how to reach the place and how to check in, which were very helpful. The single room didn’t have a window, but it was perfectly good for the price (maybe a couple more hangers would have been useful). A towel was provided, albeit not the highest quality. There are lockers you can use (you need your own lock), but I didn’t deem it necessary.

The number of passive-aggressive, even hostile notes posted all over the place creates a bad (first) impression. I understand some guests can leave you frustrated, but "we will confiscate your belongings and charge you for them if you don't check out on time" is really taking it too far. It's good to have rules, but I would advise to choose the words more carefully not to scare away nice travellers too.

La gérante est très agréable et le self check-in appréciable. De plus, possibilité de laisser son sac le temps d'une ou deux nuits !

Il y a vraiment à faire du point de vue de la propreté etc. J'ai eu une serviette sale pour mon check-in, la salle de bain est trop souvent salle et est rester 24h sans papier...

Bien meilleur que mon précédent séjour

Spacious bunk bed compared to any other hostel.

Dobre miejsce by się zatrzymać na odkrywanie kuching , system łóżek zapewnia prywatność , czysto i ciepła woda , blisko centrum

Location. Very close to water front and walkable to all the tourist hotspot

The whole room smell stink. I guess because the shoe cabinet is locating inside the room. The stinky shoe is lingering around the whole room. The toilet is dirty.

Tout parfait! Même un spare badge pour laisser son bagage en consigne. Adelyn est géniale et très efficace.

RAS

location, cleanliness

very unique, smart security with gate@cctvs@keylockers, smart budget matches with the bunkers, simple facilities towels@shampoos@waterdispensers provided, no uneven smell, very clean (even other budget hotels cant provide it well). comfort temperature of the place (23•C - 26•C). will repeat again if emergency stay out solo night needed. owner@reception fast reply.

height of curtain still okay. length of the curtain is still a bit short. need to changing@dress up in the bathroom@toilet. need to turn on soft music beside your ears or put on earpods while sleeping bcos some of the tenants might snores.

The hostel is a short walk from Kuching waterfront.

The room is partitioned from the standard dorm area by a door that doesn’t reach all the way to the ceiling giving you little privacy and lots of light pollution. The aircon is only in the dorm area so even with the gap above the door you get little of the aircon making the room really warm unless you keep the door open defeating the point although there is a fan making it a little more comfortable. There is a lot of noise late into the night from a karaoke bar so ear plugs are a must. The toilet paper was only replaced in one of the bathrooms after I happened to be in the dorm at the same time as housekeeping to ask as it had already been two days without any. The level of cleaning is poor, not just from so many people using the facilities but layers of grime suggesting it’s never been deep cleaned/sufficient cleaning is not being carried out by the housekeepers.

The owners are really kind and helpful. The location is great. It’s really clean. Really nice

The air conditioning in the dorm is really cold

The place is great ! Good location , near to the river , restaurants and bars The beds are big and comfortable , clean place , the bathroom are quite good ! You can refill your bottle with the dispenser so thats great to avoid the use of plastic , even you have cups and hot water to make your coffee or tea ! 100 % recommend !

Clean, solid bed not shaky at all

Would be better to have a better quality curtain

Very strategic location, less than 1km to Kuching Waterfront. 7-Eleven is just across the homestay. The Hills Mall is next door. I love staying here because even though it’s called a homestay and I stayed in a dorm, the atmosphere is quiet. Other guests respect each other’s privacy. The dorm is cool, clean, and organized. It’s equipped with a pantry, a fridge, an induction cooker, and a water filter

My friend stayed in a private room, but he said it was a bit noisy due to karaoke sounds from a nearby club.

Walking distance to restaurants, 7 eleven, Hilton Hotel. As its backpacker hostel, expect a little bit of noise. Advise to bring ear plugs and eye masks for better sleep. Drinking water is available, both hot and room temperature. Bed was comfortable. Locker is provided for personal belongings. Self check in and out. Very convenient.

Two types of bunk beds; narrow and wide entrance. No space to put luggage close to the bed.

Great hostel with excellent service and a friendly atmosphere. The location is perfect, and there’s access to a kitchen and a pleasant shared area. One small suggestion: it would be nice to add a sofa or some extra comfortable chairs in the common area to make it even cozier. Big thanks for the warm hospitality! Next time I’m in town, I’ll definitely choose to stay here again.

There's common area and curtains which is good for privacy. Location is amazing, near to city centre.

Simple yet has everything I need. I wish it wasn't a shower ceiling though. But overall was good and clean.

I liked the curtained bunks. And the location. Ms adelyn was helpful over whatsapp.

No staff on site so you have to figure it out on your own, creates a separated vibe, hard to meet people to share transport or go together to do things. Also I like to check in with someone when I'm going out as a solo traveller for safety, this was not possible because no reception. No luggage storage for when you go stay over at the national park.

Is very clean place

Nothing every think is ok

Good location, just the bunk bed was quite noisy but it was still comfortable

The location is quite good

The curtain is not fully opaque and cannot fully cover the space.
