Easy to check in and polite staff.
Signage is very poor when getting to the rooms in the hotel it’s kinda like a maze at times.
The rooms are ok at best. The curtains were broken so didn’t close properly and the window didn’t close properly either so you could hear the traffic all the time.
If you are a large person you would struggle to sweeper between the toilet and getting into the shower, which itself wasn’t very powerful.
On a good note the bed was comfy and the AC worked fine, the hotel is about 30 mins maybe a bit less from Kota Kinabalu Airport and the hotel is attached to a shopping mall
Overall if you’re looking for a cheap place to stay for a few days then this is the hotel for you

Room was okay given the price. There wasn’t any toothbrush. Deposit safe was not functioning. But the staff were friendly and nice. My booking does not include breakfast but it smells amazing when I passed by the dining area where they serve the breakfast buffet.

I stayed at this hotel for one night, and the overall experience was very satisfying. The room was comfortable, clean, and equipped with all the necessary amenities. The atmosphere was calm, perfect for relaxing after a tiring day.

The breakfast provided was delicious, with a wide variety of options. The Nasi Lemak and Kuey Teow were my favorites, while beverages like coffee and orange juice complemented the meal perfectly. The staff were friendly too.

I would definitely recommend this hotel to anyone looking for a quality short stay with a delicious breakfast ! ThankYou :)

Room is big for an affordable price. Friendly staffs. Good food. Clean place. However, I suggest that the hotel give meal vouchers/coupon with timestamp if guests booked the room that includes breakfast, so that we don't miss the meal and feel that we wasted our money for not being able to claim our breakfast on time.
