Exceptional staff...

The hotel was not notified of my booking, so there was no room for us when we arrived. We were offered an upgrade while they sorted out the mess. our stay was comfortable, and Syafiqa (Fifi) at the front desk was exceptionally helpful. She always had a bright smile for you.

nice hotel ,not a great location

the hotel overall was generally good and would recommend for only maybe a day or two max,the reason being it was to far away from the centre.it costs 30 rm to get into town and 30 back.there are shops and places to eat nearby but they tend to cater for the asian market and are more like cafes.we had no fridge in room which again was an issue breakfast was good and finally we stopped in a room with no window which l knew when we booked but l would prefer a window in future.we were ther for 4 days in all.

素晴らしいホテルです

海外でいろいろなホテル(低~中上くらいまで)によく泊まりますが、このホテルに宿泊する費用対効果は抜群です。スタッフもみな素晴らしく、とても好感がもてました。部屋も広く、快適でサンダカンに再度訪れる機会があれば必ず泊まりたいと思います。
