I take pride in every aspect of my homestay whether it be on cleanliness or the décor. Some might say that I am a perfectionist but in order to keep the place running, I have to be strict about every detail. I ensure every room is thoroughly cleaned before my customers check in. The bathroom is spacious to ensure accessibility to everyone including disabled people. My hope is that everyone can have a pleasant shower whilst sitting on the toilet bowl and be able to enjoy their private businesses comfortably. I handled the interior design when we first started about 24 years ago which is why I am delighted that you can appreciate my effort. Personally, I have never been to Bali but I think I managed to create that Bali vibe because I have mastered the art of placing things where they naturally belong. My knowledge in environmental studies helped. As saying goes, “order is simply the accurate arrangement of things”. I highly welcome you back, and I want to thank you for recommending us!

Dear Goh, I am thankful that you appreciate my effort in building and maintaining this place for the last 24 years. I am well versed about timber which was why I chose cengal to build my furniture. I have also hand drawn my walls which my son said that it was inspired by rainbow. Maintenance is easier because the furniture and walls can simply be washed. It is like I am showering them! After their shower, they genuinely look alive and cheerful. I actually have a lot more to offer than what you have explored. I have stunning gardens which I successfully maintained thanks to my green fingers. Besides, I want my customers to arrive safely and I only wish that they can get their well-deserved rest. No matter what time it is, I will still be more than happy to welcome customers like you. Another one of my talents is that I can take great portraits and the next time you visit, I will certainly help take some for you as a sign of thank you and to cherish amazing customers like yourself.!

I want to sincerely express my gratitude to you. You may not realize it, but you have successfully made me a very happy person. There is nothing more accomplishing than getting a 10/10 from a customer. It means that I have done my job right. One of my expertise is actually in timbering. I personally crafted all the furniture that you saw and designed the interior as well. If you were to visit my Facebook (TnT Novelty House), you can see that the lounge is also the backdrop for all the pictures that I have taken for my customers. For your next visit, I will take a lot of great portraits of you because that is another one of my skills! The bathroom is spacious because I want to give accessibility to everyone including people with disabilities. I have actually ordered 18 jacuzzi baths to be fitted in the bathrooms 23 years ago. Unfortunately, due to sizing error they won’t fit through the door.

For you to write this review 2 years after your stay in 2020 and still gave me a perfect score, it really encouraged me. It is a simple gesture, yet it has truly touched me. By reading your review, it has awakened my pride just like Popeye after eating his spinach! It means the world to me that you can appreciate the environment which I worked so hard for to create. All the interior decors are my brainchild. I thank God that I am given a gift to make things look beautiful, especially when it comes to my surrounding environment. One of the main reasons why I chose to build a homestay here is because the location is fantastic enough to satisfy everyone’s needs. It is near many good restaurants and Teluk Intan’s unique attractions such as the Menara Condong and river cruise. I can recommend all the cheap and local eats to you the next time you come visit! Also, with my amazing photography skills, I will for sure help you take a lot of portraits at my homestay to commemorate our memories!

Dear Syed, I am beyond grateful that you gave me a perfect score. Thanks to the support from customers like you, it made me realized that my continuous efforts in managing and maintaining this homestay had not gone to waste. Your compliments act as a catalyst for me to propel to an even higher level! I will keep improving my services and I hope that in the future, you will visit us again. You are welcome to bring more friends or relatives the next time you come! I can help take great pictures for you to commemorate your memories here because photography is one of my specialties! Feel free to visit our Facebook page (TnT Novelty House) and take a look at the pictures that I have taken for my customers.

Dear Teangku, I really appreciate you taking time from your precious day to write this review. I truly value the perfect score you gave me. Frankly, it has been stressful for me lately because I had to deal with a lot of customers who chose to give me a hard time. However, thanks to people like you who, I believe, are genuinely appreciative of my efforts, I get to relieve my stress even just for a bit. You have no idea how much people like you can influence me in a positive way. I promise to improve my services in hope that you will return in the future and be able to enjoy my homestay even more. I will welcome you with open hand whenever you return to Teluk Intan! Feel free to visit my Facebook pages (Tnt Novelty House) too!

Saya ingin mengucapkan jutaan terima kasih kepada Norle kerana sudi meluangkan masa untuk menulis review ini dan memberikan saya markah penuh. Saya sangat gembira kerana Norle dapat menikmati masa bersama keluarga di homestay saya. Untuk pengetahuan Norle, saya memang tegas dalam setiap aspek mengenai homestay saya terutamanya kebersihan bilik. Saya akan memastikan setiap habuk dalam bilik telah dibersihkan sebelum membenarkan pelanggan lain untuk check in. Saya percaya tahap kebersihan yang tinggi dapat menjamin keselesaan pelanggan-pelanggan saya. Saya juga memang menetapkan harga mampu milik untuk bilik-bilik saya supaya para pelanggan saya tidak perlu menanggung beban atau kos yang tinggi untuk tinggal di homestay saya. Walaupun setahun telah berlalu sebelum saya sempat membalas review ini, saya tetap akan memastikan homestay saya kekal “Terbaik, Bersih, Murah” demi kepentingan pelanggan-pelanggan tersayang seperti Norle.

Please accept my deepest gratitude for writing such a great review. I can only apologize for replying to you so late because I have been busy trying to manage my homestay as best as I can. I personally did all the interior design and furniture when I started this homestay 24 years ago. To this day, I am constantly adding to the decorations while still maintaining my precious wood furniture with absolute care. I love it whenever someone can appreciate my designs. My initial intention was to install jacuzzi baths in the toilets but they accidentally delivered a different model because I have already paid for more. Unfortunately, it cannot fit through the toilet door. Thanks to this little incident, we now have spacious toilets which can benefit all my customers while attending their private business. I need to consider the need of some disabled persons who might need helper or wheelchair in the toilet and sometimes families with a lot of children will also appreciate the spacious toilet.

Dear Khong, I am truly sorry about you have experienced here. As a homestay owner, my main responsibility is to ensure my customers are getting the highest quality rest. It was just after the restriction was lifted and so there was truly nothing I can do. I have ordered new mattresses, pillows and blankets but they did not arrive in time. I want to assure you that I took your comment very seriously which is why I only reply to your review this late. I now have the courage to confront you because I am proud to say that I have changed all the blankets and mattresses in all the rooms. Besides, the toilet covers, and the piping for the toilets were also changed. I am a perfectionist and I want the best for my customers which is why sometimes I can come across as rude or strict when dealing with problematic customers. I want to thank you for your review. I appreciate you still giving me a passing score despite your mediocre experience here. I sincerely hope that you will consider us again.

I have been expecting a bad review from you because I know problems with water pressure and wifi issue will arise. The main cause of your complaints stemmed from you which is precisely why I was being rude. Even though I mentioned that no extra people will be allowed in the room, you still insisted to bring them in. If you apply common sense, surely you will know that when there are > people, > water would be used, thus causing < water pressure. Also, > people, > wifi access, < connection. I cannot stop people from taking advantage of my upgraded wifi to download things and escalate the problem. I can assure you that though the room looks old, it is clean throughout. It was CNY season and everywhere was fully booked. I only permitted you in because you have no place else to go. You should be grateful for the room that you paid for which is economical, safe, clean and just enjoy the CNY festivities. Because of you, my staffs and my family didn’t get to fully enjoy the CNY celebration.

Dear Aswadi, by looking at your review, I can see what a picky and demanding person you are. I want to sincerely thank you for taking your precious time to write this. You have actually saved me a lot of trouble because your warning will deter all similar customers like yourself and I can avoid serving your kind. It is so troublesome facing people like you who will not appreciate what was provided for the price that you can afford and yet still never fails to find every little detail to complain about. If you want unlimited parking spaces and superb entertainment, perhaps next time you should go find a 5-star hotel. Even then I am sure that you will find things that are not up to your standard and will complain about it.
