There were large gaps in the windows, making the room as noisy as being outside. I managed to improve the situation slightly by stuffing some paper in them. The bed was short; my feet hung off at 186cm tall. The overhead shower's control was broken, but I fixed it with a toothbrush from the amenity kit. You might also have trouble with the toilet flush. Just remove the tank lid and adjust the guiding rod under the flush button. Breakfast is only for those who aren't picky at all. I asked for an omelet, and they made it without a problem, but it might be undercooked. The location is convenient. If you're considering staying in Sandakan, keep in mind that the drive to the airport will take at least 30 minutes. It's fine for a couple of days.

Room 413. I stayed here often. It's my go to place usually on the weekends. I love the location. Food nearby, mile 6 near by, golf course nearby. Usually rooms ok, not great but the price we pay, it's ok. This time it's smelly. The last time it had smell. This time the smell was even stronger. I wish they do something about it. Good value, good location, cleanliness can improve, smell needs drastic improvement

I saw a lot of reviews before saying that many hotels in Sandakan were old, which made it difficult to choose. However, after checking in, I think it's pretty good. It's clean and hygienic. It does have a bit of an old-fashioned feel, but that doesn't stop it from being a good hotel. It's also right next to the rainforest, and the location is excellent.

A decent hotel, a bit out of town, but perfectly fine for an overnight stay. It's a quiet location. We probably visited off-season, as there weren't many places to eat during the day, though a couple of cafes were open in the evening.

A friendly clean hotel in a good location in the town centre. The staff were very helpful. They offered laundry and help with booking any trips. However, it is advertised that a simple breakfast is included with a picture of some hard boiled eggs, bread, bananas and spreads. When we went to have our first breakfast, there was nothing apart from 2 loaves of bread and a few spreads (butter/fruit jams to choose from) so we were pretty disappointed. This needs to be updated as it is misleading.

The location is a bit far from the city center, but it has a large parking lot and a gas station nearby, which is great for self-driving travelers staying overnight.

The deco is absolutely stunning. Pretty, can't deny this. Kids were happy to see the hello kitty theme, small size couch for the kids to sit. Downside is the amenities for this accommodation is poorly maintained. Front door can't close, owner ask us to just lock gate don't close front door or door will not able to be open from inside (?!), balcony look dangerous for children, so many sure not to let any kids go there. Lucky just book the place for a night, else will be worry for safely. Pic included where door required to stay open whole day/night to avoid locked in. Lol.

Here is the English translation: ”The hotel staff were very cooperative. However, the room atmosphere was quite disappointing; the booking promised a room for four people with two king-size beds, but instead, one king-size and one queen-size bed were provided. The air conditioning wasn't cold, the room had a musty smell, and the hallway leading to the room was as hot as a sauna.”

We stayed there three nights. We had a family room. I couldn’t say it’s very clean, but it’s definitely not very dirty. It’s a rustic kind of stay. Staff was very helpful. Keen to help whenever we needed. We had laundry service, but quite expensive. So don’t bother. I think they said it’s done by outsider. Not many options for food. Didn’t see much at the jungle in front of our balcony. We had a snake visiting our bathroom. Quite scary. My partner threw it back into the jungle. They offer free transfers to and from orangutan and rainforest areas which was nice. Happy to recommend this place to anyone. It’s different from normal hotels.

The neighborhood is peaceful and quiet, which was perfect for relaxing. Location-wise, it's very convenient if you have a car. There are plenty of restaurants, cafes, and convenience stores within easy driving distance, making it simple to grab meals or pick up any essentials.

Beautiful hotel located on the seafront of Sandakan. Location is really good for taking jetties to go both to Kinabatang river to search for wildlife and to the sea islands (for example Lankayan or Selingan). We stayed one night only, so we were not able to use the beautiful pool, but we would have loved to! Lastly, we had a pleasant dinner at Pietro restaurant, located at ground floor of the building.

For a small town this consider one of the okay hotel. If you don't need anything fancy and just for sleep, this hotel is sufficient. One complaint though, the fridge have stain cause it keep on and off I guess based on occupancy availability. Afraid of mold and hotel need to be little bit more care to cleanliness. Location wise it is at the main shop areas where you can find lots of food choices as well other grocery pharmacy within walking distances.

This hotel is suitable for an overnight stay if you're catching an early flight after a Kinabatangan River cruise. The room was a bit dark, but everything else was fine. It has a cabin-style vibe with a small garden and a tiny pool. As for breakfast, it's just like a standard budget hotel breakfast, so don't expect too much. The staff were very enthusiastic. The nearby Rainforest Discovery Centre (RDC) is very close and worth a visit, and you can also book a night tour there. As for the Sun Bear Conservation Centre and the Sepilok Orangutan Rehabilitation Centre, honestly, only go if you're really bored and have money to spare! Xiaohongshu (a Chinese social media platform) really misleads people; anyone who goes will regret it. Once you've been, you'll truly understand the quality of the zoos back home. The Sun Bear Centre just cages a few bears. The orangutan centre is no different: everyone sits in a glass enclosure watching a group of monkeys (not orangutans!) eat bananas and vegetables on an outdoor platform – basically watching them ”mukbang.” Then you watch a few orangutans ”mukbang” on another open-air platform. We couldn't bear to watch it. After seeing how wild animals live on the Kinabatangan River, these scenes were just unbearable.
