This is a sprawling set of several buildings and smaller cabins. We were in the Begonia building at the end which requires a short walk around one building and down two flights of stairs from the parking lot. The view of Mount Kinabalu from this far building is unobstructed and beautiful. The wifi is only available near the cafe and registration building. The breakfast is included and consisted of fried rice, noodles and white toast with sweet coconut spread. For drinks coffee and tea were available. The rooms are basic and clean same goes for the bathroom which had good water pressure and hot water. The windows are louvered so they don't keep the breeze out. The temperature went down to 16 or 17 degrees C. It was cool but manageable. We were in a ground suite and the footsteps from above of two little girls was quite noticeable. Overall a nice little gem as long as you are ok with a somewhat rustic style.

Terrible

Old tin room, with nails on the walls. Bad flooring etc etc, all our allergies started living in this old place. I am surprised it is listed as a house, I understand a little bit of wild living but this was plainly bad as seen in picture. Luckily we could get it changed on the last day, but allergies continued with cat in the restaurant not helping. The reception was accommodating in facilitating the change, but frankly it should not be listed in hotels.com as a house/room option. The restaurant menu for breakfast or dinner is the same with no variation, it is good to skip it for now.

Wake up to a magnificent view of Mt Kinabalu just infront of our unit. They could improve on the water system. The unit we stayed has no hot water and the pressure was very low. I was freezing cold after a cold shower. Other than that we loved the place and enjoyed our stay.

There were many ants.The condition is like an old kampung house. The DVD player wasnt working and had to get someone to exchange with another DVD player next door. Cats and dogs around the premise, caterwauling until we fed them.The worse part was the presence of something in the room with bunk beds. My son was able to see it and my hubby was disturbed by it.

Don't book the cheapest room

We booked the cheapest room at the lodge and it was a very small room with concrete floors, a low ceiling, gaps in the walls and no mosquito net. I would suggest paying more for a better room. The staff were very friendly and helpful and the food was fairly good but nothing to write home about.

I was given the impression, based on the price I have paid on this place (for my room), there would be no issues at all. Unfortunately, in a terrible way, this place has done worse. I have been travelling for a few years. I have been staying in several different hotels and accommodations like Sabah, Sarawak, Penang, KL, Perak and Pahang. All of them have their own goods and bads but none of them have ever disappointed me except this Mile 36 Lodge. I don't know or I am not sure, are this place really wanted to be in the business of leisure or accommodation? Are those guys in this place really wanted to serve their guest with their inadequate amenities? No iron for my shirt? Not enough hot water? Not enough parking? Wifi, internet? Too slow even my grandma can run faster than their internet. Congratulation Mile 36 Lodge, you have won, in the first place, in my own categories, The Worst Expedia Experience of 2019. I am even sorry for Expedia themselves for having this place in their system. You should get rid of this place ASAP from your booking system. Summary? Cleanliness: 3/5 Amenities: 1/5 Internet: 1/5 Everything that's should make your expensive hotel to be worthy: 1/5 Worse, risk of damaging your travel mood: 7/5
