The hotel offers spacious rooms with good food in the restaurant; however, the mountain view is blocked by the new hotel next door. The service from the friendly and polite staff is excellent, with easy access to all of Kota Kinabalu. The location, although in need of renovation, is convenient for car drivers with a free guest car park. The dining experience was satisfying, especially with included meals, and the facilities are in good condition.

My stay at the hotel was a mix of positive and negative aspects. The location was great, near shopping centers and banks, but the room cleanliness was lacking with dust everywhere and no towels provided. The lady at the dining hall offered exceptional service, although there were some issues with security measures and deposit receipts not being given. The dining experience was satisfying but lacked variety and quality. The hotel facilities seemed promising with ongoing renovations for the pool area.

My stay at the hotel had its ups and downs. The rooms were old and had some issues like exposed wires and a surprise visitor in the form of a cockroach, but the location was great in the heart of the city with free parking. The service was a mix of helpfulness and some mishaps, while the dining experience was reasonably good. Overall, there were positives and negatives to consider.

The rooms were very old with exposed wires, and I had to improvise to block the light in the cupboard. Encountering a cockroach in the bathroom was unsettling.

The service had its moments of helpfulness, such as assisting when my daughter broke a glass, but there were complaints about the air conditioning and toilet malfunctions. Some mishaps, like misplacing the towel rug on top of clothes, were a bit frustrating.

I had a pleasant stay at the hotel, with clean and comfortable rooms and friendly staff. However, there were some communication issues regarding breakfast timing, which caused some inconvenience. The location was decent but a bit far from the city center, and the dining experience was just alright. Overall, good value for the price paid.
