KH Soon is really your only option for affordable accommodation in downtown BSB. You get a double room for about $38 BR and the location is great for seeing the city, and close to the public bus terminal. The rooms are huge, but not that comfortable. There is no Wifi or other services.

Resthouse is just 2 minutes from Tamu Kianggeh and main bus staion. However, room is old and not clean. We spent $79 for a room with 4 beds; consider expensive for such quality.

I stayed there for one night and would never do it again. The place was falling apart, the rooms were huge, ugly and dirty. I had to close the curtains and they were almost black and sticky with dirt. Just disgusting.

We stayed 4 nights at the KH Soon as an alternative to staying in seperate dorm beds down the street. We paid B$45 a night for an enormous room with a private Western bathroom, nice AC, and a hot shower. There was no TV but there was a table and a desk. Shared bathrooms are all of the "squat" variety.... More

if you search an accomodation right in the city center, in front of the bus terminal and with a walking distance to the highlights of the city here you go. this hotel has huuuge rooms but empty, old and quite dirty... the bathrooms are very basic and in the corridor. forget internet, they don't have it.

The KH Soon Guesthouse is the cheapest place in BSB - keep that in mind. If you just want a place for the night and are on a budget, this place is just about ok. The rooms are very big and sort of clean. The whole place is sort of falling apart though. Plaster is falling from the wall, dirty... More

My family together with our 23month girl arrived Brunei by ferry and planned top take the bus to B.S.B. But after being influenced by cab drivers that the bus would arrived so soon, we were persuaded to take the cab to Pekan Muara where there were plenty of bus to B.S.B. That cost us $5 for the cab and $1/pax... More

Spent four nights there in June and deliberately picked it due to the location and the mixed reviews it has recieved here. And I didn't regret doing so. My accommodation budget was in fact many times larger than the price of K H Soon (this was a business trip) but I saw no reason to find another place. Reasonably clean,... More
