Great location, friendly helpful staff and good value.
Karen, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

nice hotel, central area for walking
Glen, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

A very basic hotel in need of modernization. Given the price, it was okay.
Michael, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

The hotel is in a great location, right on the waterfront and there is no shortage of eating places nearby. Staff are welcoming and helpful. The extractor fan from the hotel kitchen made the rooms at the front somewhat noisy in the morning and evening. Breakfast was very good.
Kirsty, 3-night trip

2/10 Poor

Noisy dirty hotel

Very noisy at night
Peter, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Nice enough room, great location and excellent staff, comfy bed, only issue was a bad smell that came from the drains, the staff were quick to spray the drains for us but it only temporarily masked the smell. Didn’t affect our stay massively but would have been nice to not have an odour. Would still recommend for a short stay in sandakan!
Thomas, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

Nicely located at the coast
Jonathan, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

Location on the waterfront was great, staff really friendly and helpful with great places to eat. Rooms are clean and basic but ok for a night or 2 before or after a jungle experience.
Belinda, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Very compact, great location with fantastic views
Christopher, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

Basic but fine

Basic accomodation - served its purpose. We thought there was a problem with the air conditioning, and they responded quickly and thankfully the remote simply needed new batteries. There was some nearby music/street noise at around 9pm that would have been disruptive, but it did not go too late. Location is handy. Love the memorabilia!!!

4/10 Fair

Think twice before a room

An alarm from a building next door went off about 17 times around 1pm and continued until around 9pm. When contacted reception staff they were at a loss to support us and informing that they were unable to contact the building owner and would ring our room with an update, this never occurred
J L, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Good value

Good value, great location, best for short stay in the heart of Sandakan.
Maria, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

The people were very friendly and the staff were good, but the hotel is very noisy with the music every night until 11pm
Suzette, 8-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

A nice seaside gem!

This is a little gem on the seaside walk. Terrific breakfast and the staff were amazing. Also the quirky music collections were a nice added touch. The beds are a bit firm and it’s not a luxury hotel but the price reflects it. I would stay here again!

Exceeded my expectations

A lovely little hotel in a great location on the waterside with loads of food and drink options nearby. Definitely get a room with a view of the water.

Excellent stay

Excellent stay. Staff were friendly and welcoming. The room was very big and clean. Breakfast has plenty of choice. Location is excellent - right by the waterfront and everything you need right on the door step.
1-night trip

6/10 Good

Good location but otherwise it's a basic budget hotel. Nothing to rave about. It's a good stopping point for us as we moved onto the resorts.
Jeffery, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Good accommodation in Sandakan covering all necessities. Sandakan doesn’t have a lot to offer tourists other than being a stopping off hub but this hotel caters well to the needs of travellers and has everything you need for a comfortable stay

Margot, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Okay for a night.

10/10 Exceptional

The staff was very nice and welcoming. The rooms were basic, but comfortable. There was entertainment going on outside and it sounded like the person singing was in our room. The structure didn't block outside nose very well.

HAMILUDIN BIN CHE, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

The staff were all nice and kind, very professional. The hotel was ok, lots of movie memorabilia. The restaurant next to the hotel serves good food. Area around the property is not pleasing, it's dirty and smells. The city is great, with lots of stores around. They should keep it cleaner, no littering. My room was small but overlooking the sea. Nice view from my room.
