Many places to eat nearby within walking distance. Airport shuttle not available as mentioned in provided facilities. Very noisy music coming from nearby establishments. Not able to sleep.

Room was okay, Matratze not comfortable, internet weak with constant cut offs. Location of the Hotel is good, weir process at check-in had to give $20 USD cash deposit, not on CC like normal hotels.

Everything was walkable distance. Despite it being crowded on the weekend due to some market....still could sleep well.....it was a good trip. Will definitely stay here again. Good for solo travellers as it was an option for a single bed.

Ok hotel centered on old area of kota kinabalu. Staff was very nice. Room was average with some updates. Has refrigerator but also has slot that room key must be inserted in for electricity to work. When you take key and leave room refrigerator has no power. Why have refrigerator? Hotel was quiet but hallways smelled like cigarettes. I think there are better choices in KK at this price point.
