Transit Point

Transit Point is a budget accommodation facility located in the heart of Kuching. It has just been recently completed and features WiFi in every room. The rates start at RM 35 nett which is slightly more expensive than the RM 30 nett charged by it’s main competitor – Singgahsana Lodge. However, the two places are different in many ways.

Transit Point provides a more private environment with a room consisting of a double bed and air conditioning (and television and WiFi to boot) while Singgahsana provides dormitory style accommodations sleeping 10 in a room (without WiFi). Transit Point provides towels for free too, which is chargeable (RM 2) in Singgahsana Lodge.

Transit Point also features shared toilets and shower units but the place is very clean and there’s a soap/shampoo dispenser in the cubicles. Smoking is not allowed in both places (except outdoors).

I would recommend Transit Point if  you want the privacy of your own room and a larger bed with an air conditioned room. Singgahsana Lodge would be more suitable for people who wants interaction (and doesn’t mind leaving their notebook filled with incriminating photos and videos in a room with 9 other strangers). πŸ˜‰

Transit Point just costs RM 35 nett per night. I stayed there during my recent trip to Kuching (the 12 hour grueling trip where I nearly missed my express boat back) and was happy with the place. I’ll definitely do a return visit when I’m on a shoestring budget.

  1. Hey HB, the last photo has lots of orbs in them man. Those orbs are energy balls and some people say they are actually spirits, sprites or supernatural entities. Was there any disturbances during the nite? I noticed the queen size bed man… she ur galfriend/lover or what? Don’t tell me u guys are “just friends”. Huumm…. what has happened to that woman you were dating for a while… can’t remember her name now… the one nicknamed “Phoenix”?
    Take care and well done staying off drugs!!! You the man.

    BTW, Irene has been in sixthseal.com for a very long time. We hang out together in Kuching. Heck, I see her most days when I was drinking at Luconia.
    Myst3: Heh! Irene is just a friend. I’m not a magnet, I just tend to have more female friends than male friends for reasons which escape me. See ya end of the year mate.
