Un sitio de paso con habitación limpia pero lugar deprimente
Pros:

La habitación está bien, pero las imágenes no son exactamente lo que te encuentras. Está todo más viejo que las imágenes. Habitación limpia, cama cómoda, baño, bastante nuevo y limpio. Dentro de todas las opciones que vimos en Sandakan es de lejos la mejor pese a que es también de lejos el peor Hotel en el que hemos estado en Malasia.

Cons:

Está ubicado en una zona lejana al centro por lo que para ir a cualquier sitio hay que coger grab aunque está a 10 mins de todo y el grab es barato. Está cerca del aeropuerto y eso es una ventaja si como nosotros buscas un lugar para dormir mientras haces escala para ir a otro sitio, ya que hay mucho tráfico por las mañanas. La zona en la que se ubica es bastante sucia y genera bastante mala impresión. La foto del edificio en el anuncio es de cuando la inauguraron, ahora mismo es un edificio viejo y nada que ver con lo que sale ahí. El equipo es amable, pero el lugar es bastante deprimente.
