Hornbill's Nest Kuching

Very inexpensive I left before spending the night. I think it was more a workers dorm than a travelers hostel.

The room was nice. The furniture and the bed was comfy. The most unpleasant part of my stay was the behavior of the staff. I asked a young male staff member for help, but he became shockingly rude and angry for no reason. The toilets were dirty, and to make things worse, there was a Mooncake Festival going on right outside. The hotel didn’t inform guests in advance, and the loud music continued until midnight, followed by noise throughout the night. The walls were so thin that I could hear everything happening in the next room. Overall, this was one of the worst experiences I’ve ever had. I will never stay here again and would strongly advise others to avoid this place.

Friendly welcoming staff. Paper thin walls. Absolutely no soundproofing. No windows or vents in some of the dorm rooms. Yuck! Stale curry farts air. The bunks are those super cheap, noisy, unstable and flimsy metal jobs. Without privacy curtains. No hooks for hanging clothes in the shower area! Life evolving on shower ceilings see photo. No soap or shampoo or anything in bathrooms.

Everything but except the fact that the food shops around close early and night time there's not much option on food selection. There was a guest at the hostel who eyes on white dude travelers and she has the tendency to try sleep with the guest and pry other female guest to try get to know the male guest.

The location is near tourist spots, restaurants, and bus station.. The room is humid and the first night the AC didn't work well, so the room became stuffy.

Location is very good, near to attractions and restaurants, convenience store. Cheap price, Wifi working well. The bed was shaking I was about to fall down when I climbed up. Thankfully have another vacant bed so can change. The next day changed to lower bed but I feel itchy all night. The aircon also off suddenly in the middle of night, few times so I cant sleep. At least prepare fans as a backup since no windows. Please repair the toilet windows, both of them in first floor missing one panel and you can see outside. Its scary and no privacy. Sink very dirty.

Near waterfront

BIG bed, Good Location and working AC No Windows

My stay was amazing! The room was super cozy, clean, and just perfect. The bathroom was clean too! Plus, the hotel is right in the heart of the city, just steps away from the beautiful Kuching Waterfront. Couldn't have asked for a better spot! I’ll definitely be staying here again

Bad

Location Toilet. Dirty and window cannot close properly

Pleasant

Receptionist staff is very friendly and helpful. I prefer to have a mirror in the room.

The location in Chinatown is the best. Just one block from the wonderful riverfront. Several excellent Chinese restaurants within just a few paces. Three good bars 150 meters away and perhaps the best traditional Malay food restaurant in Sarawak at 200 meters. I didn’t notice that the bathrooms were shared but it wasn’t a hardship at all. With only five rooms on the floor and only one other than mine occupied it was not in the least an issue. The toilets were clean and the shower warm. What more do you need? There is not a lift, but the staff insisted on carrying my bags up for me.

Bad

Location very close to anywhere There is very big locker to place anything important, There is no curtain for the bed, so no privacy, Electrical outlets are placed a bit too high, The placement number of the lockers are a bit confusing, it should be placed besides the bed. For example, E & F, the lockers are not beside the bed, but across the bed. And because of that, I mistook the C bed as my bed, cause lockers E and F are beside bed C & D.
