Inns in Sabah, Malaysia

We booked a family room, which was good as it came with one large and one small bed. The room itself was extremely small, and the facilities were quite basic. Even with minimal luggage, there was no designated place to put it, so it had to stay on the floor. The overall cleanliness was decent, and the bedding was clean. However, the bathroom facilities were quite rudimentary, and the bathroom's hygiene was just so-so. The location was fantastic, right in the very center of town, making it easy to access all the breakfast places. The owner is a local who doesn't speak Chinese, though simple English communication was possible. Don't expect much in the way of effective service. However, for a diver who spends their entire day out, this temporary lodging offers excellent value for money.

We used the Grap app for taxis in Semporna because Q3 INN HOTEL wasn't listed on the Grap map yet since it only opened last October. So, you could choose Grace Hotel or BaWang ChaJi, as they're only about 20 meters away – very close. The hotel offers free instant noodles, snacks, and drinks. There's a coffee machine providing free coffee and hot water. We're health-conscious, so we brought our own water bottles to use the hot water provided. The hotel is very close to the Longmen Guesthouse pier, a 7-8 minute walk. You can see the pier from your room balcony. The hotel facilities are all new, but there's no renovation smell, which is great. The owner is very dedicated to running the business. Thumbs up! 👍 Staying here... There's a seafood restaurant downstairs. My friend and I ate there for several nights in a row. Yes, it's seafood! Next door is a place selling black thorn durian, which is also incredibly delicious and authentic. On the day we left, I left my water bottle at the hotel, and the owner happened to be flying back to Guangzhou that evening at 7:00 PM. They even delivered my water bottle to the airport! I was so touched. Even after I went through security and was at the check-in counter, the owner contacted security staff to open the glass door and hand me my little blue collapsible water bottle. Super NICE ❤️ My friend and I stayed for three nights. On our last night, we went to the bar downstairs at the hotel 🍷 and listened to locals sing Mandarin songs. It was quite nice. The only downsides might be that the toothbrushes were a bit soft, the air conditioner would be better with a wind shield, and the rooms near the road could have better soundproofing. Also, having more clothes hangers would be very convenient, as we went out to sea every day and needed to dry clothes. Laundry detergent was also a concern; I brought a small bottle, but it ran out, and they only had laundry powder. In short: My friend said this place is the best value for money. We originally planned to stay in a water villa on Mataking Island, but we ended up staying at this hotel by chance. It was great. Highly recommended 😎 👍👍

Affordable. The price suits the stay. The beds are ok. Towels provided. Only that the heater is making an irritable sound when in use. Overall, i would rate it 6.5 out of 10.

I really liked the bed here; it was dry and not damp at all, and the water heater warmed up quickly. There was no hair in the room, and while the bathroom had a slight sewer smell, there were air fresheners, so it wasn't an issue. It's great for people with limited English, as the staff are all very patient and enthusiastic. I checked out at noon and had an evening flight, so I left my luggage here and picked it up when I left. The location is close to the pier, and on the way back from the pier, you can pass by markets, convenience stores, and a mosque, which I liked. The downside is that it gets noisy at night; there are often people on loud motorcycles on the street. This is unavoidable for any hotel located on a main street, so I accepted and compromised.

the smell of their room and microwave is bad

OK, the safety lift in the booth is a bit small... but that's OK... I'm happy to find something to eat

Very good, super good atmosphere, convenient eating, everything is very good. Highly recommended. You can come and stay. You will not regret it if you book together! Believe in yourself, you can do it!!!

The location of the room is very good, near the pier in Semporna, very convenient, the room bathroom is large, the water pressure is sufficient, but the room is relatively small, the most disgusting is that the pillows and quilts and sheets smell bad, I don't know how long it has not been replaced, and later I found a staff to replace it.

Best very comfortable with clean and safe condition Thank you trip for giving advice for our family at a reasonable price
