With this price, i was expecting budget. But i got less than i what i thought i will get.

Firstly, my friend deposited all her credit cards and passport at the front desk for 1 night, as the next day, we went to the beach. Guess what, the following day, she received a call from her credit card company abt credit card fraud - one of the cards that she deposited at front desk was used for an unauthorized purchase.

Then wifi and TV didnt work as promised. Wifi was down for the 2 nights that i was there in May. Satellite TV had like an extra 1 channel and you didnt have a choice to what channels. We were there for 2 nights and on both occasions, we had to go to reception to ask for satellite TV. Apparently, you have to ask reception to "activate"each time. And on the second night, we were watching a movie on one channel when it got abruptly changed to a football channel. We had no idea what happened, but was too lazy to ask and frustrated with a half-watched movie.

The room we stayed on the second floor had a very musky smell to it. I've a sensitive nose- much more than the average traveller - so i was sneezing non-stop throughtout both nights. and it starts the moment i stepped in.

As what others have said, the pictures are certainly not representative of the current state of affairs
The saving grace was the most helpful and responsive staff on all aspects of your stay.

Stayed at this hotel for one night as I was passing through. Ok for travellers on a budge.
The staff were friendly and helpful. Room was clean, but needs some upgrading. I found it difficult carrying my suitcase up 2 flights of stairs, as there was no lift. All in all my stay here was ok

It is a budget hotel so don't expect 5 star. There is no lift but if you are climbing Mt Kinabalu it's good training.
Our room was clean albeit a little shabby. We upgraded to a deluxe room with a bath as the shower in the standard room tended to flood the bathroom floor because it didn't slope towards the drain sufficiently but they did supply complimentary thongs!
The staff were lovely - friendly and helpful. Their notice board very informative. They looked after our luggage when we were at the mountain.
Great location, nice little bakers downstairs.
Good value budget accommodation.

Look at the hotel website photo, it looks nice isn't it ? but when we were there, it is totally different ! Upon checked with the receipts, was told that the photo was taken 10yrs back(2006) ! It is still published in their website & brochure !! Ok, put aside the photo..

This hotel is located at the 2nd floor, u need to take staircase to go up to their "lobby". No lift ! After go thru the checking process, we got the room key, we still have to take the staircase up to our room level, which is at 4rd level. Again, no lift !

Open the room, it is warm !! We switch on the aircon and heard the "machine" running, it is not central-controlled aircon and u have to adjust ur own temperature where even u set to the lowest, it is still warm, but at nite, it is quite cold !!

The room is quite clean I shall say but u get turn off with the stain on the bedsheet/blanket ! Well, budget hotel.. can't expect much.

Go to check out the bathroom, seems ok.... but the major problem arise when we take our shower, no cold water even the knob is there. The water pressure is worst, suddenly it is like rain drop, a while later like storm ! imaging u r showering/bathing with hot water and on/off the water changing its pressure.. :(

Not really an enjoyable hotel stay I shall say... but the hotel location is very good, u can go anywhere from here..
