A perfect two night stay

We enjoyed our two night stay in Sabah Hotel and wished we could have stayed longer! The staff was welcoming and kind. Our room was spacious and clean. We tried both restaurants there and the food was delicious! The hotel is located at a walking distance of Sandakan old town.

Cons:

We could hear our room neighbors chatting at night.
