We arrived at the property all was going well till we had a fire and had to vacate the property at 1 am and couldnt get back to our romm till 5 am to get our gear after seeing the manager in the lobby and speaking to the hotel twice we keep getting fobbed off after they promised the refund. The facility is nice but the management need to honour their promuses and at least email us

Long weekend in KK, Sabah…

Central location, near shops and restaurants and on the waterfront, with friendly and helpful staff. Optional breakfast buffet and they made us a packed breakfast for our trip out. Pool overlooks the sea and there is a large lounge to relax in plus a small gym. Room was clean and adequate with a great kitchenette within the room, cooker, microwave, saucepans, kettle and a full fridge freezer. We would stay here again.

We have no complaints about the unit when we walked in however it was located in a bad part of a disgusting town of Kota Kinabalu. We could not bring ourselves to stay and left and went up the street and checked into the Marriott.

Property was new, nice, and big (it was basically a full fledged one room apartment we had). Two TVs, kitchenette and washing machine. Location was well placed within 10min walk to gaya street. Only drawback was that Citadines co-shares the plot and common facilities w an apartment building called Northshore (different wing) which brings along w that, tons of short-stay crowd (amongst them children) and noise in the common areas, esp the pool.

Sad to note there wasn’t a swimming pool per se but only an adult wading pool that allows you to enjoy the cooling off & sunset. No attendant in sight in the gym ( suppose to collect pool towel) & no pool towels available except the small ones. Went down @ 4.00pm to 6th level & left about 5.00pm or so when I sighted hotel staff with the load of clean fresh pool towels! Only a coffeeshop available for dining with limited menu choices. Not convenient for those on short stays despite the fact that my room has the kitchen facilities & cutlery.

Fantastic hotel. Brand new, good sizing and the room were very well equipped. The value for money was good and again, because it is very new, everything was in very good condition. Good location as well. Would return again definitely!

직원들은 정말 친절합니다. 요청하는 건들은 시간이 오래걸려도 해줬어요. 하지만 욕조 배수가 좋지않아 샤워때마다 힘들었고, 페이스타월이 준비되지않아서 요청해서 받아야했어요. 에이전트의 실수로 예약한 방과 다른 방이 배정되어 시작부터 그다지 기분이 좋지않았는데, 욕실 청소상태가 좋지 않아 더 별로였어요. 위치는 정말좋아요. 바로 앞에 필리피노마켓으로 망고랑바나나튀김, 닭꼬치, 나시고랭등을 포장해서 피곤한날 방에서 편하게 먹었고, 가야 스트릿이랑도 가까워서 이펑락사, 유잇청에서 조식을 사먹었어요. 제셀톤선착장도 걸어서 10분정도 였어요. 로비층에 편의점 있고, 1분거리에 정말 싸고 맛난 아이스크림 가게가 있어요. 장점은 많지만 다시 가고싶지는 않아요. 욕실이 너무불편했고, 세탁실이 사용료가 너무 비쌌어요.

Super super flot lejlighed med fantastisk udsigt ud over havet . Lejligheden har en god størrelse, vi var tre , så en sov på opredning i stuen. Lejligheden ligger centralt ca 1 km til det største mall og lidt under 1 km til havnen, hvor der arrangeres et væld af ture ud på forskellige øer
