Strategic place near to the town
A good hotel for backpackers and travellers. Really near to the town and next to the taxi service. Many halal and non halal restaurants nearby and 24 hours convenient store. Whi want to go for laundry there are self service laundry nearby too.

Trevlig personal, väldigt lyhört
Bra och serviceinriktad personal. Rummet var trångt och väldigt lyhört både mot gatan och korridoren. Vi hade ett rum mot gatan och det lät hela tiden, är man känslig mot ljud så bör man inte ha rummet mot gatan.

pieni komero
Halvin, ikkunaton huone pari yötä oli tosi pieni ja ahdas. Myös wc oli niin pieni että miehen piti istua pöntöllä poikittain ja suihkun aikana kaikki kastui. Sijainti hyvä.

buona posizione, molto pulito
Per passare qualche giorno a Kota Kinabalu va più che bene. Economico, in buona posizione vicino al mercato notturno e la pulizia è ineccepibile.

Accommodation was super basic. Think of it more as a private room backpackers rather then a hotel

The Staff very friendly and nice. The location of the hotel is very strategic. Easy to go to nearby shopping mall. Many 24 hours convenience store.
Just only TV channels are not very clear. Hotel management should put a glass, a kettle or a jar in the room.If possible, hotel should provide free flow of cool drinking water and instant coffee to the customer.
To sum up, I feel very happy to stay here.The room very clean.

For a budget hotel, it was surprisingly pleasant
We only stayed for a couple of hours (checked in at 8pm, checked out 1030am). Room was clean, well maintained.
Do not bother to get rooms with windows because not much of a view there. Suitable as a transit hotel

Good showers, not as quiet
We stayed here a week before and thought it was a very satisfactory place to stay for a night or two. The rooms are quite small, but clean, and as I noted before, the shower was hot and had great pressure. The first time we were in room 216, which was good. The second we were in 215, which was slightly larger, but much noisier. The sound of flushing toilets from either next to us or above us was quite loud. But it is something you get used to relatively quickly, so not a big issue.

호텔 위치가 시내있고 가까운곳에 큰 쇼핑몰(Center Point)과 와리산 스퀘어, 워터프런트가 위치해 있어 주변상권이 가까운 것에 만족합니다. 호텔내에서 간단한 물품을 구매할 수 있고 현지투어 상품을 구매할 수 있어 편리했습니다.( 현지투어 상품은 현지 여행사에 비해 10~20링깃 정도 비쌉니다) 방은 약간 작은듯 하지만 혼자 쓰기엔 가격대비 나쁘지 않습니다. 청소는 5박중 3번을 했고 청소를 원하지 않으면 안내테스트에 말하면 원하는데로 해 주는 점이 좋았습니다.
