Reviews and Ratings
The hotel offers a comfortable stay in the city center, ideal for exploring Sandakan. The rooms are clean and well-maintained, though not soundproof from the mosque next door. The service is friendly and attentive, with some room for improvement in providing information. The location is convenient for sightseeing, but noise from the mosque can be a disturbance. The dining selection is varied but slightly monotonous. Overall, a decent choice for those visiting Sandakan.
The hotel offers spacious rooms that can accommodate a larger group comfortably, although they have a slight lingering smell of smoke. The service is friendly and helpful, with some minor issues in email communication. The location is ideal for exploring Sandakan, near key attractions and dining options. The dining experience, while modest, caters to various tastes. Overall, a good value for the price paid.
