I really enjoyed my stay at Tubotel, as far as low-cost hostel stays go it was an exceptionally comfortable stay. Booking a private room was really a good choice. I booked the private partial sea-view and really appreciated that I did. Even so the area is so easy to move around and the patio is right on the ocean so you have great views no matter what. The staff were helpful and friendly. The complimentary breakfast was great! Definitely recommend the chicken burgers. For a single smaller negative, it was quite difficult to get to the main beaches from there without taking a taxi. Though they are very affordable and quick to arrive.

It use to be a nice and cost place but now it's a bit run down with no maintenance done for some of the cubicles. We was allocated one with termites.

The properties not as pictures e.g. there's no daybed. Alex the boss is arrogant. He even scolded the staff in front of guests. Toilets are old and rusty. Location: quite far from the beach and town. You may need your own transport unless you prefer just being stucked there.

Decent low cost accommodations
Its not bad for a cheap hostel type of accommodation. The single room is just the size of a queen bed but the sheets were clean and environment quiet and I slept well in it. Although the wifi does work it was very slow and subpar and only in the common area. This is the most important thing to me that I would recommend management address. Make the wifi connection easy and get the speed up to normal quick speeds and eliminate dropout periods.

Quirky, fun place but pricey for what you get
Great view of the water, but there's no swimming. Playful and quirky hotel that is more suitable for younger people than seasoned travelers. Menu was limited to just pizza. Each tube was only big enough for a bed. Shared bathrooms and showers were not even coed, just one for all.

Original but far from beach
Despise this original and funky (in a good way) hotel been next to the ocean, the actual beach is a good 20 minutes away due to a creek and rocks. Nice staff. Horrible internet. Breakfast was a nice surprise having several options but sadly none was very well cook. Planes constantly fly above all day long. Good for a short stay and to take a few pictures inside a huge concrete pipe!

Pleasant view with unpleasant experience
We enjoyed the unique concept of sea front view and friendly staff especially a Malay girl wearing tudung. However, there are few problems we need to highlight about. The bathroom experience wasn't as expected. Bathrooms near sea front rooms are cleaner but most water heaters weren't working. Same goes to bathrooms behind check in counter, some water heater weren't working and there are no racks for placing our own toiletries. Besides, hotel should provide 2 towels for 1 room. Garden view walkways have insufficient lightings which make guests feel lack of security. It was raining almost everyday during our stay, it was kind of annoying as there wasn't any shelter outside our rooms as well as the walkways. We had to get ourselves wet while heading for shower and get wet again after shower. Sigh. We found sands on the bed sheets and my friend's room didn't come with a carpet, floor was wet and dirty. The small bar with water bottles was full of dirt as well. Cat poops can be seen at many walkways, I accidentally stepped on it upon arriving the room. It was really an unpleasant experience, I was shocked that there's such thing happened at a hotel which price is higher than other same grade hotels. The wifi coverage wasn't that good as some of us couldn't get to connect. Lastly, the noisy sound came from jetty was the most unpleasant thing, it disturbed us whole night while sleeping. We really hope to see improvements made so that we could recommend to others.

Enough for what you pay
Good place to stay, it's an original idea and the beds are very comfy, but they should clean the rooms at least every two days, we spend one week there and nobody cleaned our room. and put more attention in the facilities maintenance
