The hotel is clean and tidy. Very satisfied. Service is also fast. Next time our family will stay at this hotel again if we come to Sandakan. The food is delicious too.

Hotel location is convenient. Easy to reach Little HK, San Da Gen Kopitiam and waterfront. There is no fridge in the room. Room is spaceful.

Hotel is in the center os the city with the same name, which is good for tourists arriving here for the first time. Tour operator, department store. Staff is friendly, very attentive and professional. Food in the restaurant is of high quality, fresh, good juices. This refers to breakfasts, and to dinners, specifically, to Ramadan fest dinners in the tome of my stay.. Furniture is new, towels and linen are excellent.

The hygiene was guaranteed, and the hot water pressure was excellent. The location was good, very close to the Turtle Island landing point.

Great service and an excellent location! The facilities are a bit old, but that's pretty typical for the old town. Overall, it was a good stay!

Very helpful staff. The location is good. There’s a mall not far from the hotel, several coffee shops and restaurants. The best restaurant is Hal.

This hotel has an old-school charm and a fantastic location for exploring Sandakan in depth. The mosque next door marks the beginning of the Heritage Trail, and you might even spot monitor lizards along the roadside. Walking the Heritage Trail was an amazing experience!

The location was good and the staff were friendly, but the cleaning was poor and the breakfast was poor. I don't think I'll be staying here again.

Good hotel, not very modern but with all necessary amenities. Unfortunately no sockets besides the bed, and the windows could not properly open. But besides that, nice experience.
