It was a disappointing overnight stay, first, it was not as advertised online, the quality of rooms and the quality of the hotel... so, given that we were shortchanged on the aspect... But what made things terrible during that "fateful" stay, was, there was a brown out, and there was no generator.. and worse, they did not even provide a... More

The room is clean and safe yet the reception area is dusty. Wifi at the lobby is good, no wifi in the room but its okay since the price is cheap. And its near sedco square where the seafoods are flooding. And the best part, its near the bus station to Mt. Kinabalu...just few steps away. But when I visit... More

Basic but clean rooms at a nice location in K.K., about 10 minutes walk to the night market. The big plus of this hotel is it's staff; very friendly and helpful. We stayed there twice and both occasions were very enjoyable. Very good (and free) Wifi.

At the reception desk, we noticed, for 24hrs AC (which is a necessity given the intense humid and hot climate there), we would have to pay extra! They only provided AC for 12hrs from 6 in the evening till morning 6! When we told them,... More

Brilliant hostel, very clean, spacious, good A/C and above all...the staff were very helpful and friendly. Central location by a night market. Although it's perfectly safe the neighbourhood is a bit rough.
