Emplacement: possibilité d’aller à pied à l’embarcadère Possibilité de réaliser une arrivée tardive du fait de la présence de boîte à clés
La chambre minuscule : impossible de faire le tour du lit. Aucune partie commune Pas de personnel sur place, tout se passe par whatsapp Réservation d’une chambre avec fenêtre et donc payé plus cher en conséquence. Pourtant on m’a imposé une chambre sans fenêtre sans ajuster le prix à la baisse. Pas d’eau dans la salle de bain (toilettes et douche) lorsque quelqu’un dans une autre chambre se douche en même temps. Le wifi de fonctionne pas bien. Bref extrêmement mécontente de mon séjour dans cet hôtel.
Està molt ben situat i sobretot l’amabilitat i professionalitat de Walter, l’anfritió.
Bardzo dobra lokalizacja. Pracownicy szybko odpowiadają na pytania, są bardzo życzliwi i pomocni.

God beliggenhed. Ingen larm. Venlig vært. Rent. Adgang til rene håndklæder efter behov. Ok til prisen.
Værelset var ikke ret stort. Ikke noget vindue. Trappe op til lille badeværelse, hvor bruseren var nærmest over toilettet.
Good place to stay.
Nothing.
Basic but good, great location.
Room was very small, but it was quiet with good aircon
位置非常优越方便
Man hat alles was man braucht im Zentrum von Kota Kinabalu. Überaus nettes und hilfsbereites Personal.
Zwischen 23 und 00 Uhr kommt nächtlich die Müllabfuhr. Lange Zeit großer Lärm!
Great host Walter, comfortable location, everything for short stay
A bit noisy from street. Not so much place.
everything was good
The bed is squeaking
La chambre était propre, le lit confortable. L'emploi est idéal dans un quartier calme.
La chambre est un peu petite et il manque une étagère.
nice location
3rd floor
de locatie is erg centraal en midden in het centrum en dicht bij de zee. Overal in de buurt restaurants en winkels/ supermarkt.
Het was een kamer zonder ramen. voor 1 persoon te doen voor 2 personen te krap vanwege je bagage. Het matras was erg dun en slecht. Paracetemol moeten slakken vanwege mijn rug.
This was in a very central place and had a comfortable bed.
We chose a cheaper windowless room but the lighting wasn't great and it felt a little small.
The location is exceptional
The bed is a bit uncomfortable
Stay here just to roam the night market during weekend and morning sunday gaya street market. Wonderful.
There are beggars on sunday market which im not really into...but totally not related to this lodge.
El dueño es increíblemente simpático, nos dio muchas facilidades tanto para hacer el check in un poco tarde como para dejar nuestro equipaje al día siguiente. La ubicación es genial.
La habitación es muy chiquitita pero para dormir y asearse sirve.
Super location on Gaya street - lots of restaurants (breakfast options) even foodie market at weekends), super responsive and helpful staff, budget option for stay, strong A/C
Too firm bed mattress, not very controllable A/C- in small room even on sleep mode it was blowing too strong
Die Lage ist spitze.
Late checkin was pretty easy and hassel-free with clear instruction. Staff are very nice to help keeping my luggage while I'm away for Kinabalu climb. Location is perfect as it's a bustling area and close to everything. Easy to walk around.
No fuss compact and well priced
I tour e la posizione
La stanza era molto piccola
Établissement bien situé, sur la rue du night market le vendredi et samedi soir. Correspond aux standards du pays
La única estaba genial y el personal es majisimo! La habitación estaba muy limpia, el aire acondicionado funciona muy bien, dan toallas y la verdad es que la relación calidad precio es buena. El servicio de lavandería está genial.
Creo que debería mejorarse la señal wifi, es un poco floja pero funciona, así que bien.
La ubicación es muy céntrica y cerca de los principales atractivos turísticos, además la entrada fue muy rápida y cómoda. Para un par de noches máximo está bien, si vas a estar más tiempo mejor algo más espacioso.
La habitación era pequeña y faltaba espacio para dejar las cosas.
Stosunek jakości do ceny, lokalizacja, kontakt z właścicielem, klimatyzacja, pokój wyglądał jak na zdjęciach
Pokój ciasny, ale da się funkcjonować, okna wychodzą na wewnętrzną stronę, czuć zapachy z restauracji i w nocy hałasuje śmieciarka
Ottima posizione e personale molto disponibile
Stanza molto piccola, rumorosa e priva di mobilia o appoggi. Molto scomodo starci più di una notte
Very accessible
Posizione comoda sia ai traghetti che al centro. Proprietario disponibile
Sarebbe utile qualche appoggio in più per gli abiti
Logement propre, chambre simple avec un très bon rapport qualité prix et le personnel est extrêmement sympathique. Je recommande !
Almost everything you need, comfortable, good location, easy to communicate with staff! Daily housekeeping!
Nothing a big deal really. For price, comfortable and clean. But to avoid disappointement here the points that could improve (price will go up i guess): Would need a bit of refresh, Wifi very slow, tv no point to use it without wifi, a small fridge would have been nice, a bit noisy street at times....
Central location, coffee shops and stores nearby but nothing special.
Room door lock problems. Bed springs poking back. Old shower low water pressure. No cutlery. Loud noise outside thin window. Cheap toilet paper breaks apart. Everything is cheap. Improvement needed.
Central location, plenty of life
The location was perfect. Sunday and night market, and central for everything else. Clean and in good order. Very helpful friendly reception.
Nothing.
Located in the city centre, clean and comfortable. Shops and restaurants nearby. Recommended.
Excellent location.
no one in office or front desk to help with " tourist information".during my 3 days but the manager was always available by phone.
Very affordable and centrally located. Staff were very friendly and easy to communicate with.
The value for money is there. The check-in was well facilitated and smooth. Room is small and sufficient for one person with small luggage. Basic but clean. Great for short stay. Location is great. Felt very safe
The room I had was on the side of the area's garbage collection so it was noisy when people would throw trash but even more so around 10:30-11:00pm when the trucks collected the trash. Aside from that, no disturbance. I recommend it
Excellent and friendly communication from booking andthroughout stay. Location is amazing as it’s in the heart of Gaya Street. I had a room on the back of the building, so there was no street noise, but front rooms probably would be pretty noisy. Good security so you feel safe. Be aware that the room is tiny, just enough for the bed and a small wet shower/toilet. But it had what I needed and everything was very clean. Incredible value for the location. I would stay again.
Good location short walk to markets and jetty. Air con worked. Hot water.
The location of the hotel was excellent. Near to lots of restaurants, bars and cafés, and about fifteen banks. The room was small, but adequate, hot water on demand, and the aircon worked well. I didn't try the WiFi. I had a room without a window, which didn't bother me as I don't spend all day gazing out of bedroom windows, it may, in fact have been a blessing in disguise, as there was a market Friday and Saturday nights, and Sunday morning which could be quite loud. My room was very quiet.
There was a kettle in the room and a tv that I didn't try, but nothing else really.
Staff were brilliant, good price. Great location in the middle of the centre
Nothing
Strategic location at Gaya St
Running down facilities
Really good location and Walter was very nice and helpful.
Nice
Sukaa psl bwah nya ampir gaya street. We can go down saja klau lapar . Ampir kedai orange 24hrs open.
Pyh hantap cari paking. Kami dpt saman psl kami nda kana gtau after 5 cannot paking theree. Hmmm.
Room was okay, enough beds to cater for my entire family (with kids). Owner was very responsive. He guided me through the entire process of checking in/out. I love that the lodge is located in a strategic area; they have banks, restaurants, convenience stores, night markets, you name it, almost EVERYTHING!
Heater wasn't working. Apart from that, everything was fine.
Walter is brilliant. Very nice guy and always quick with helpful answers and info.
Nice and helpful host. Small room with private bathroom, for one person ok. Clean. Very good location. Night market at the gate. Restaurants and shops. Close to the ATM (banks). Close to the Rabbit scooter rental if you want go to the tip of Borneo. Comfortable bed. Shampoo and toilet paper, towel included in the price. I recommend.
Room is really small with a tiny cabinet but for one person is OK.
Centrally located in town centre. The owner will whatsApp for the check in details or meet you at the counter at noon.
The ceiling exhuast fan in the toilet need repair/improvement as it is either no working or very slow to drain away the smell in the toilet as this is necessary for good ventilaton in the no-window room.
Great communication with the host! I made a mistake while booking the room, but he was really flexible and made my stay comfortable and made me feel welcome. Everything was spotless and had a pleasant smell. No noise outside.
nice communication with owner.in the middle of everything,everything there and everything works
no small fridge,wifi not always stable
It’s located right at the center of the city, perfect! The price is reasonable and absolutely worth for its location and facility.
The first night we stayed was Saturday, there was a holiday market in the street. Actually it’s noisy until midnight. The next day , Sunday, the market is finished, that’s much better and not noisy then.
The room was small but very clean, as was the bathroom. The bed was super comfortable and the AC worked well. Right in the city centre near restaurants, shops and the pier.
Great location on Jalan Gaya. Good budget option, very clean!
I was happy to be there. Good location. Quiet place. Good WiFi. Very friendly and helpful owner. Thank you so much for your hospitality!
