    I don’t want give even one star. It’s like a jail, seriously. Bad equipment: like a flooding toilet room and old building look like dirty. Inconvenience location: You feel like climb up mountain. We need to walk so long distance. There are many insects include dangerous poisonous one. Many rove beetles come into your room and they cause heavy skin problems. To prevent it, need to put a net for windows and it’s tough work. Even they come from a opening of under the door, so need to fill it by towel or tape. Saujana office don’t mention about it. I don’t know how local students survive but I’m sure it’s not a staying place for international students. I just stay here because saving my money and don’t want to bother with owner at outside. There is no good point except can save money and avoid trouble with owner.

    Desasiswa Saujana M04 is a very peaceful hostel, the farthest hostel from Kompleks RST main entrance. Visitors mostly didn't notice this MO4 block hostel.

    It is located side of the hill. The view is good -if you fortunate to find good room-. Cheap enough for student. Although it is far enought -cause located outside campus- but there is a bus to bring you to campus.

    Fair enough with affordable hostel fee. It's really convenient for students to get food since it's near to Ivory & Sg.Dua. Near to Tesco as well. Strategic location.

    Its overall a good hostel. The view is very beautiful from the rooms. Its on top of a hill so you have walk a long way. You can see the beautiful hills surrounding the place and you can also see the ocean...

    it's higher thab M03, the view is very nice and the food at the cafeteria are affordable and delicious. there is also Bank Islam ATM available at the cafeteria and a mart to buy necessities. Students can take bus E to get to saujana if they don't want to hurt their legs walking up the stiff hill

    Very nice view, eapecially if the room is facing the Stadium Olahraga. At night, you can see Jambatan PP. The toilet is veerryyyy good (clean) if compared to other Desasiswa.

    Their hospitality is good especially for us that mostly come early from Borneo. They let us check in to our room without any hesitation 👍

    This desa doesn't have it's own cafe. It shares cafe with Desasiswa Restu and the residents has to walk long stairs to get there. The lift only stops at level 1,3,5,7,9. If you get a room in floor 2/4/6/10, you need to take the stairs after taking the lift. Doesn't offer free drinking water to the residents. Each cubicle has 4 rooms, 2 shower, 1 squat toilet and 1 toilet bowl.

    Affordable hostel Bed is okay and the bathroom is well maintained and the room is much more spacious than expected. Its quite cool at night also, no need ac. However the walls are very dirty and furnitures are very old. The place is also on top of a hill so its very tiresome to walk, but you can take a bus for free that goes around the compound to take you to saujana. Overall I'm happy with it

😠 THE WORST HOSTEL I HAVE EVER STAY. THE STAFF WAS RUDE AND SHOUTED LOUDLY JUST BECAUSE I OPENED A DOOR WITHOUT THEIR PERMISSION. THIS WHOLE BUILDING IS FULL OF COCKROACH AROUND HERE AND THERE. MANAGEMENT VERY BAD. POOR CLEANLINESS.
