I love the space of the room, the secured parking (we parked in front of the entrance camera). Got lift. The room even got a balcony eventhough it's partly filled with aircond. The towels are old and seems overused.

A bad experience
The room was smelly with cigarette smell although its not a smoking room. The toilet flood after taking shower. The mattress is old and can feel the underneath springs and also uneven mattress making sleeping so difficult.

Bilik hotel sangat selesa & besar (superior king). Amenities pun semua cukup. Parking pun banyak & fasiliti semua ok. Tapi utk toilet setiap kali saya ingin membuka segala paip mesti akan ada bunyi macam 'gedegung'. Lagi 1, toilet nampak macam buruk. Bekas sabun berlumut. Tapi utk saya overall hotel ni selesa & recommended utk bajet hotel

Further improvements possible
Hotel is a bit run down. When I first checked in there were no bath towels, face towels, or floor mat. The shower hair & body wash liquid were empty. When you bath the whole toilet was flooded. Coffee spoon also was not given although free coffee was provided. The aircon could not start initially and had to call the reception for help. No shirt hangers provided too. Room layout is nice though. Walking distance 20 mins to Sarawak Plaza. Easy to call GrabCar. 🆒

Bad first impression.
The bad things about my room is the toilet is quite smelly and since not much ventilation in the room the smell kinda trapped. Shower water heater is inconsistent sometime its go cold and too hot without adjusting the knob. Area outside hotel gets quite dark in the night making you think the security of your car park and your safety when you walk around in the night.

Large rooms, good location but very poor maintance
had to change rooms 3 times because first 2 rooms air condition is spoiled. disruptive water supply throughout the stay of 3 nights. Bathing half way and suddenly no running water for more than an hour. Staffs were not helpful at all. This happened more than thrice time. even when water is back on, it was ice cold water. Really terrible experinces

Great location
The walls were thin and we could hear everything from our neighbors, but when we complained we were able to change to a room in a corner and then the room was very quiet. The room is large, the shower hot and great! Wifi didn't work for the first day and a half, but the owner was nice enough to explain why and when it did start working, it worked well. Location is near the bus stop to go to Bako National Park easily. Plenty of restaurants close by, and right near the walk on the waterfront.

the room did not have towel when I checked in. Tried to call reception but the phone is not working therefore I have to walk down to ground floor to ask for it. Shower only with overhead shower head makes the shower difficult if someone would not want to get his hair wet. Partition for shower area is too small.
