Oké
Pros:

Ruime kamer met AC
Prima voor 1 nacht

Cons:

Het hotel heeft van binnen een beetje lugubere uitstraling.
De meubels zijn erg gedateerd en de badkamer is aan renovatie toe. De badkamer was ook niet helemaal schoon en er zaten 3 velletjes toiletpapier op de rol, geen nieuwe rol op kamer en geen personeel te vinden.

Ottima qualità prezzo
Pros:

Lo staff è stato molto efficiente. In particolare abbiamo interagito via wathsapp per prenotare un tour sul kinabatangan ad un buon prezzo e per allungare di una notte la permanenza ricevendo sempre risposte veloci e professionali. Posizione buona nella zona del porto. Finestra in camera e addirittura in bagno.

Cons:

Poche prese della corrente. Nessun interruttore della luce vicino al letto.
Una sera abbiamo trovato una grossa blatta in camera ad accoglierci.

Basic rooms for a good price with helpful staff
Pros:

Staff were really lovely and friendly. They helped me when I left something in my room after checking out and were very responsive when I got in touch, and held onto my items until I could collect which I was very grateful for.

Cons:

Nothing in particular
