Location is the best! Right in front of the waterfront where there's water light show every night, and the Darul Hana bridge. Walking distance to Borneo Cultures Museum, textile museum, shopping mall, gula apong ice cream stall, souvenirs shops, and kek lapis shops. Spacious room, very clean. Good breakfast.
