Stayed here 2 nights. Used as transit for Sepilok. Good central location, easy to find your way around. When we stayed lift was broken and it was a difficult climb to the 4th floor. Windows only single pane, we were on side street and market sets up at 5.30am on Sunday morning - very, very noisy. Also noisy on other... More

I used to stay in the hotel during weekend. Don't expect too much because this is a budget hotel located in the city centre, you can get as low as RM60 or USD20 for a room per night. You can go almost anywhere from here, shopping & dining are nearby, there's also a restaurant inside the hotel that open up... More

- 1st stay was July 2011 and 2nd stay was 31 Oct - 02 Nov but decided to extend another night as we didn't get to enjoy the room as much as we could and we were still tired after driving overland from KK. Definitely not luxurious but was good enough for us, comfy bed & good airconditioning was what... More

We are all budget travelers (aka, backackers) so not by any means fussy, but this place was terrible. It was a last minute choice of accommodation after a backpacker hostel in the area stuffed up our booking. For the super cheap price we didn't expect a whole lot but for any establishment to be part of the hospitality industry, you... More

The reviews for this hotel were very good when I booked it. My friend and I had separate rooms. There were ants in her room so asked for the room to be fumigated, when she got back there was a huge cockroach (dead) in the room. We decided to spend the night in my room. Whilst sitting on the bed... More

We arrived in our room to find the aircon broken and leaking all over. We were able to change rooms to one on the other side of the building which was just as noisy as the first. Very depressing setting, we only stayed as a sleep over yet it was still unappealing. Beware: I think I got bed bugs from... More
