Location is top notch as many attractions are walkable distance, staffs are really nice as they spare us extra pillows for foc, overall cozy stay and super value for money!
Shared bathroom amenities (shower gels only, no shampoo) could be refilled more on time (many times we showered with diluted shampoos)

The place is within a walking distance to Plaza Merdeka Mall and the Kuching waterfront. It is also near the pick-up spots for all bus companies that can take us to Bako, Semenggoh, Kubah, Santubong and other main attractions. The staff is also super friendly and kind. They let me check in early and they also let me keep my bags behind the counter until I was ready to leave for my 19:30 flight. Will absolutely return when I visit Kuching next time!
There was only one bathroom with a working shower. The windows of the toilets could not be properly shut and they were overlooking the streets; you would have to trust that nobody would peep through from afar when you’re pooping.

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.

Perfect location within walking distance of all the attractions and near lots of restaurants and shops. It's clean. The dorm has air conditioning and lockers. There's a power socket by each bed. Hot water in the shower. Nice little rooftop terrace. Free cold drinking water. Staff are friendly. Good security as you need a keycard to open the front door. Wifi works very well.
No curtains on the beds or individual lights.

location, location, location walking distance to mall, museums, mosques, temples, food stalls ( galore of all ethnic groups), riverfront… For the price I pay, best deal ever!
there are always as*hole guests who sneak around smoking in rooms or toilets even if there are “ no smoking” sign” everywhere. For this price, I am satisfied with everything and have no complaints. if I expect 5-star quality, then I should pay extra extra $$ for a 5-star hotel.

Tidy hostel, staff sometimes hard to find but helpful with toilet paper, drinking water, adapter. Room clean, no windows, but aircon. Bathroom ok. Enjoyed the stay. Central in China Town, lots of sights and restaurants/ food court. Changing dates and staying longer was no problem at all.
Bathroom wasn't too clean at times, power point in the room wasn't working.

No breakfast has been provided but the location itself near to Jln Gambier and Little India / Indian Street so can get food easily. If not, 7E is just nearby
Cleanliness. You see I did not know if the Hornbill Nest (HN) has shorten support staff cause I noticed there is one girl stationed at the front door and she is also doing house keeping. The toilet is quiet dirty especially at the last bathroom. I wonder if HN could hire a staff to do cleaning

Clean, aircond is in good condition even though it was cheap hotel or hostel. The location is at the center of the city. Bedsheets was clean and smell good. Most importantly the towel they provide is clean and just like 5 start rated hotel
Only that a bit noisy can hear people walk😅pass my room

The room was spacious and the view was beautiful. The rooftop view was amazing. Nice to relax there with a cup of coffee & some local snacks. The location is superb as it's near food stalls, a clinic, cafés & walking distance to the Waterfront and other sightseeing locations.
As it's shared bathroom (which we didn't mind), cleaning should be done regularly. Even the sharing sink should be cleaned more regularly, as some visitors are not bothered with cleanliness & hygiene.

the bed is comfortable. and the hotel is nearby a lot of restaurants.
the room a bit small for 2 people but is still doable. the floor creaks a lot so do keep that in mind.
