    Location & cleanliness. It's a bit hard to find the entrance but not to worry, as the admin staff will guide you step by step to the check in counter.

    The hotel is located in a rather new district of KL but it's just about 1.5 km away from the old quarters or China town (Gaya Street).Next door is a huge shopping mall called Imago. So it's convenient to look for food and other stuff.

    Did not like the very lifeless pillows ...so had to ask for an extra pillow....so I feel shd get in better quality pillows ...its impt for a gd sleep. Did not like the entrance of the building to go into Margo ....wish its more lighted, clean n a board to show Margo Htl ....even after our dinner we went to the wrong entrance ...n had to back track our steps. So...making the entrance more cooler or hvg a good size board wld help ....just sharing

    Met up with Joshua ...really a nice n helpful chap. Very friendly n committed to Margo guests. Rooms are very clean n new. Only alittle tied on space. Security to access rooms is well thought out n gd ...gives us a sense of safety esp for gals for a budget hotel....so thank you mgmt. Location is gd n near eateries n big shopping mall Imago ...walking distance. Will return again for sure ....thank you Joshua for making our stay extra special.... 🤗

    THE LOCATION. i think, this hotel should give an additional information about the location. Im not a sabahan, and its quite hard for me to recognise the location. we drove all the way from Tenom and arriving late, when we arrive, there isn't single board showing Margo Hotel. My husband need to look at each stairs just to know which level is Margo Hotel. The experience is quite unpleasant for me and my family.

    the room is so clean, quite good and reasonable price. the security for door room was exceptional. its quite good.

    No Hotel signage. I understand the hotel is new. Sad looking lift. But it works fine. Dirty windows from the outside.

    Location, convenience if checkin and check-out. Simplicity of service - no service (No restaurant, no lobby, no spa, no pool - just a good quality room). Good electronic lock security. Good hot water shower.

    Nothing, but I might include slightly more detail about the exact location. Grab can't drive right to the door as it's inside a pay parking lot (though if you drive yourself then you're good). So the location for Grab is "EZ Money Express" which is on the corner by the parking lot entrance. Then just walk a half block, the hotel entrance is directly to the left of Fuji Film. My mountain view room WiFi was a bit iffy but in my current room (I extended my stay) it's very strong. Just a matter of distance from the Wi-Fi unit I think.

    Everything is brand new, very nice view, staff sent detailed instructions to find the hotel. I appreciated thoughtful touches like a travel adapter in one of the plugs, water and coffee provided, kettle. A lot of great stuff nearby - restaurants, bars, mall, 711, but very quiet for sleeping. Hot water shower, cold a/c, nice ceiling fan, comfy beds. A desk. Space to store luggage and hang some things. Really a very nice hotel, I extended my stay.
