"Surroundings area near location (not hotel) on the kerb has lots of rubbish which really need addressing but overall at the hotel premises all good n clean."
"The hotel is very close to the mall and the harbour. We booked it mainly because we needed to take a dive course, and the price was a great deal. Breakfast was okay, and it was also conveniently close to all the restaurants we wanted to visit."
"Spacious clean rooms. Friendly staff. Incredible food. Excellent location- walking distance to the food markets, Sunday markets, the ferry port and malls. Special mention again to all staff there- extremely friendly and helpful. We had a great stay, thank you!"
"Very nice room, comfortable beds & good air con. However the shower was not good.
24hr reception, very helpful staff.
Plenty of places to eat nearby & good location to reach Jesselton pier on foot.
Just be aware that the Gaya night food market is on both Friday and Saturday, if you have an early start next day it is noisy! If you don't, it's fun!"
