Everything. This is probably one of the best hostels, I’ve ever stayed in. It felt a bit like home. The staff were amazing. The hostel is central, clean, and comfy. Not to mention it’s a perfect place to meet other solo travellers.
Safe and secure location in a modern sprawling gated community. The view from our 13th floor windows was impressive. The apartment is adequate for a short stay, but lacks charm or comfort. Don’t be tempted to think the location is walking distance from Sandakan city centre though - it isn’t. You will need to use Grab to get to and from anywhere (with the possible exception of the English Teahouse). Grab cars are cheap, so the cost isn’t an issue, but it adds a layer to anything you might want to do.
Triple room was clean and comfortable with good AC. Food was tasty, and self-serve meant portion sizes was up to you so you won’t go hungry! Very friendly staff and river guides who were very attentive and keen that you saw as much wildlife as possible. I’d recommend bringing your own binoculars, but the groups are happy to share as well if you forget. Brilliant experience for those on a backpacker budget
Affordable luxury by budget traveller standards😊 The staff were exceptionally polite and friendly. Great location...walking distance to markets etc. Ask for a back or high room, some traffic noise at lower levels. Amazing included breakfast
Best hostel in Malaysia! Maybe even on my whole trip! Staff is nice and really helpful. Amazing view from the rooms and common area. Free self-service breakfast all day with different options. Free Water Refill, tea, coffee. Bathrooms were clean and with hot water.
very friendly staff and great location but very hard to find parking and the parking fee is not cheap.
Maxwell is a fabulous worker, we could not recommend him enough for his humor and tips! We loved the self serve laundry, first hotel I've been in that has one other than hostels. It's super cheap and easy!! Hotel was clean and super close to our favourite eateries and streets.
It is a just small hostel with a reasonable price and good service for backpackers or someone who travels on budget. The staffs are very friendly. Room is small and simple, but very clean. They also have a small cozy common area where you can watch Netflix for free at night or enjoy a beautiful sea view through a big window in early morning.
