The owner was friendly and helpful. Contacted me a few days before my trip thru whatsapp, and even allow me to check-in earlier as the room was ready. The place is close to the coastal area of KK city and walking distance to a few shopping malls and the night market. Clean and neat place. Would recommend to others!

Very conveniently located opposite Centre Point Shopping Centre and 200 metres from the waterfront dining precinct. This property offers immaculately clean rooms with private bathrooms and good air conditioning. Don’t expect hotel like facilities (gym, front desk etc), but if you just want a room to base yourself for your Sabah adventures, this is a great find!

Hosts were very responsive and friendly. Room was more roomy than in the pictures and you could tell the hosts pay attention to detail and really went out of their way for the comfort of their guests by providing many various amenities. I stayed in 4 different accom this trip and they were the most well-equipped. Though there is no lift, hosts offered to help carry our luggage. Location is wonderful and it is very near all the yummy food places.

친절한 매니저님

1층은 숙박업소가 맞나 약간 의심될 수 있지만 자신을 믿고 3층까지 올라가세요. 실내는 매우 훌륭합니다. 매니저분이 카카오톡으로 자주 소통해주시고 불편한게 있는지 물어봐주세요. 입구 방이라서 약간 시끄러웠는데 1번 방이 아닌 다른 방을 예약하면 괜찮을 것 같아요. 조식은 없지만 주변 로컬 식당이 매우 많고 큰 쇼핑몰이 있습니다. 그랩 타면 거의 대부분은 5링깃(1500원)으로 갈 수 있어요.

늦은 귀국편 비행시간 때문에 마지막날 하루 머물렀는데 굉장히 깨끗하고 쇼핑몰 바로 맞은편에 있어서 편리했다. 관광 위주나 늦은 도착, 출발때 이용하기 좋은 호텔이다.
