Reviews and Ratings
I absolutely loved my stay at the hotel! The room was fantastic with everything I needed, and the service was top-notch. The location was perfect for exploring the city, and the dining options nearby were great. The facilities provided added to the overall positive experience.
The hotel rooms were spacious, modern, clean, and cozy, making it feel like a 4-star accommodation. However, there was a lingering smell of smoke from the previous guest. The service was satisfactory, attending to our requests efficiently, although the staff's demeanor was a bit unfriendly at times. The location was excellent, central and close to various amenities, making it easy to explore the city on foot. Dining options were limited, but the in-room amenities were sufficient for our needs. The facilities were well-maintained and convenient for guests.
The hotel is centrally located, making it convenient for exploring the city and visiting nearby attractions. The rooms are modern and spacious, offering a good view, although some areas could be cleaner. The service was accommodating, allowing guests flexibility with check-out times. The dining options, although available nearby, were just satisfactory. Overall, a decent value for the money with some areas that could be improved.
The hotel has quite new rooms with a large bathroom and a good bed, but they were already occupied with personal stuff lying about and the lighting was too dim. The room stayed very cold regardless of how I changed the settings.
I had a mixed experience at this hotel. The rooms offered beautiful ocean glimpses and views of Kota Kinabalu, but some surfaces were a bit dirty, and the bed was too hard. On the bright side, they were spacious with nice bathrooms, comfy beds, and good A/C. However, the street view only provided a partial sea view. The amenities like complimentary coffee/tea, a mini fridge, and a flat-screen TV were a nice touch.
I had a very satisfying stay at the hotel. The rooms were comfortable and well-equipped with a safety box, fridge, TV, and a hairdryer. Everything I needed was there, from a good bed to a relaxing bath, and a functional desk.
I was pleasantly surprised by this hotel. The room was cozy and tastefully designed, equipped with amenities like a safety box, fridge, TV, and hair dryer, plus the mirror on the wall made it feel spacious. The staff were extremely helpful and attentive, even allowing me to stay later at a reasonable rate. The location was better than I expected, close to many attractions and shopping areas. The dining options, while okay, could use some improvement, but overall, I had a great experience.
I absolutely loved my stay at this hotel! The rooms were comfortable and satisfying, despite a strong smell of smoke. The views of the ocean and Kota Kinabalu were stunning, but the noise from both staff and the road was quite bothersome. The service was top-notch and the location couldn't have been more convenient for exploring Gaya Street and the surrounding areas.
My stay at the hotel was wonderful. The rooms were very clean and comfortable, with complementary coffee/tea, a mini fridge, and a flat screen TV. The staff were friendly and helpful, even allowing me to stay a bit later at half price. The location was excellent, close to the islands at Jesselton point and within walking distance to Gaya street. The dining options were easily reached, and there were eating places nearby. The facilities were great, making my stay enjoyable.
I had a wonderful stay at this hotel! The rooms were spacious, clean, and even though they were a bit dated, they were super comfortable. Plus, being right beside Little Italy was so convenient. The location was fantastic, facing the Gaya Centre building, the sea, and the Suria Sabah shopping complex. However, it was a bit tricky to find public transport nearby. The service was friendly and accommodating, although there were some noisy moments in the corridor early in the morning. The facilities were excellent, making my stay truly enjoyable.
