The hotel offers a convenient location near Kota Kinabalu city center with ease of access to restaurants and convenience stores. The rooms, while a bit compact, are spacious compared to some stays, in need of some modernization. The service provided by the reception and housekeeping staff was friendly, though there is room for improvement in friendliness. The dining options were average, with a somewhat repetitive menu after multiple days. Despite some areas needing attention, the overall value for the price paid is fair.

I found the hotel to be conveniently located near the morning market, restaurants, and other attractions. The room, though advertised as superior, was small and had limited TV channels, including being on the 1st floor which was more spacious and comfortable than expected. However, the actual room differed from what was shown on Booking.

My stay at the hotel was convenient due to its central location near Kota Kinabalu city center and major shopping complexes. The staff was helpful, but unfortunately, the busy road and lack of parking made it less ideal. The common areas had a strong smell, affecting the overall experience.

My stay at the hotel was decent overall. The rooms are in need of renovation, average in size, and located near each other on the 9th floor. However, the service could be improved with more friendly and smiley staff at the receptionist counter. On the bright side, the strategic location offers easy access to eateries and a shopping mall within walking distance.

The hotel is conveniently located in downtown KK near modern shopping malls, local restaurants, and the waterfront. The rooms are spacious and modern, with good hot water pressure, but the first-floor room I stayed in was not worth the money and could have been cleaner. The service was friendly and offered various amenities like car hire and airport shuttle options. The dining experience was better off at nearby Indian restaurants, but the hotel's facilities were satisfactory.
