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.

Basin tap is tight and the toilet roll is far to reach
위즈마 메르데카, 필리피노마켓, 선데이 마켓등 코타키나발루 여행시에 왠만해서는 들려야 할 곳들이 모두 도보로 10분내에 있어, 첫날 밤비행기라면 잠깐 쉬고 바로 여행을 시작해요. 특히 선데이마켓은 바로 옆 길에서 열리기 때문에, 일요일 새벽부터 바깥에서 노래부르고, 사람들 소리때문에 일찍 일어날 수 밖에 없어요. 청결함도 양호하고, 직원분들도 항상 웃으면서 친절하게 대해줘요

갓성비 강추 호텔입니다 ^^
위치적으로도 많은 걸 볼수 있고, 먹을수 있는 위치고, 직원들도 정말 친절했습니다 ㅎㅎㅎ 다른 호텔보다 훨씬 대접받고 안심할 수 있는 호텔로 느껴졌고, 객실상태도 좋고 에어컨도 잘 나왔습니다. ㅎㅎ 가성비 강추입니다!!

새벽비행기라 다른호텔 체크아웃후 가성비 호텔로 잠깐 묵은 호텔이였습니다.비교적 청결했고, kk마트, 센터포인트몰, 깜풍아이르 등 걸어서 갈수 있는 위치였습니다. 오만원 지폐를 디파짓으로 낼수 있어서 링깃 소모에 유용했습니다. 단점이라면 방음이 잘 되지 않고 주변 소음이 심했습니다.

잠깐 쉴 용도의 저렴이 호텔
새벽 도착용으로 저렴한 숙소로 좋아요. 바로 앞에 썬데이 마켓, 유잇청, 이펑락사 등 맛집도 있어서 지리적 이점이 굿. 다만 룸에 특유의 냄새가 나네요.

The hotel is very close to the city center (Jetty, waterfront, night market, good restaurants). The staffs were very nice and happy to switch rooms for us upon request. Room view was not very nice, though, but admittedly it is hard to find a good view with how buildings in KK are placed.
