We were allocated a two-bedroom rather-run-down house at the back. It had a bathroom attached but at times there was no water to wash and flush.

There is lots to keep you entertained between the orangs, Kuching and the place itself. I will definitley be back to check out the more of the rainforest and cultural village. If you stay,... More
