"Not bad not great. The place needs some upkeep, but they trying. You can tell at one time this was a very nice place, but that was a time ago. The beach is nice and the AC worked for the most part. There is limited dining close by. And we did see a couple cockroaches in the place. One was huge. For what we were doing on vacation I think I would have been happier staying at the Marriott in KK for MYR 20 less a night. "

Shangri-La Rasa Ria, Kota Kinabalu

Shangri-La Rasa Ria, Kota Kinabalu

10/10 Excellent
"Duży hotel z ogromna plażą, która ma łagodne zejście do wody, świetny serwis (czysto & komfortowo), doskonała kuchnia choć ceny nieco wysokie. W pobliżu brak jakiejś interesujących miejscowości natomiast hotel zapewnia o określonej godzinie transfer do miasta Kota Kinanbalu a nastepnie powrót wieczorem."
