Very Good
XXuan NiThe road to the place is a little shaky but all worth it for the excellent view. In the morning got to see the whole mount KK in front of us, really amazing view.
The people hosting were super nice and friendly, they have a restaurant and small mart at the reception area, even a water dispenser.
There were 2 rooms with big bed and another with bunk beds that can fit 4. You can also ask for Wifi router and Mahjong to rent. Overall good experience, would visit again!
GGuest UserThe hosts are wonderful, friendly people who made our stay comfortable. Our room was a small room with a bed, a table, air conditioning and a combined bathroom. The room is clean. You can order food delivery and it will be delivered fairly quickly, the food is delicious. You can buy coffee, tea, and drinks on site. It takes about 15 minutes to walk to the entrance to Hot Poring Springs, but they can give you a ride for free. There is a transfer to Kota Kinabalu, Sandakan. More expensive than Grab, but you can't call a Grab from there. Grab cost us 200 ringgit from Kota Kinabalu, the transfer back cost 300. Don't expect luxury from this place (or from others nearby). It's like visiting your grandmother in the village). Very soulful.
HHanney JanirIf you’re looking for a quiet and away from work, you can try this resort. Cold morning breeze, chirping birds and cup of coffee to boost your day..
GGuest UserThe destination this time is mainly to visit Mount Kinabalu. After screening several hotels near Mount Kinabalu on Ctrip, I chose this one, mainly referring to the geographical location, hotel prices and reviews. I drove from Kota Kinabalu Airport to the hotel alone, and the journey took 2 hours. The hotel is in a valley, and there will be a rugged road with many lush tropical plants on both sides. After arriving at the hotel, there is a feeling of sudden enlightenment, and the perspective is also very good. You can see the layers of mountains and very low clouds, especially at sunrise. It is very healing. The attitude of the staff is very friendly. Because it is located in the mountains, there are small insects in the room. I asked the waiter to help me clean it out, and they are very patient. The scenery of the hotel is nothing to say. You can see the mountains and the cabins below. Even if you do nothing and blow the wind, it is worth it. It is a 5-minute drive from Mount Kinabalu. There are also scenic cow parks and Mount Kinabalu ranches around it, which are very beautiful. The cats and dogs in the hotel yard are mostly lazy and sleeping in the sun. Although the hotel room facilities are relatively basic and there is no breakfast, I still think the overall experience is good, focusing on a quiet and comfortable atmosphere. I look forward to staying here again in the future and recommend it to everyone.
GGero SGH Benjamin is located in a quieter area, up a steep slope and away from the city's hustle and bustle. It's a beautiful area to wake up to the mountains and would be a wonderful spot if it makes a few improvements to the space and amenities.
1) The spring bed is terribly firm, you can also feel the springs through the bed. The clothes rack was also almost going to fall apart.
2) The ventilator was not working so the moisture of the toilet came into the room instead, making it very moist.
3) The water kettle we were provided almost caught fire as smoke was coming out of the plug. Thankfully we caught it in time. When we reported this to the reception and asked if they want to get someone to check, we only got an ”Ok”. Perhaps it's a language barrier but it wasn't reassuring that the next traveller would be safe.
4) It would be nice to provide at least one chair in the room. It'll also be nice to have a seating area outside of the container cabin so people can enjoy the view of the mountains.
MMichelle Ashwinithe hotel location was very adventurous cos u hav to go into a bit of a jungly area to go to the villa..loved the experience & the view of mount KK🤩🤩
Just tht my room, the water heater wasnt working despite complaning to the management nothing was done & we had to bathe with the freezing cold water
CChu Kok LeongFirstly, the telephone number to the outlet is + 6 012 869 6969 as shown on a signage at the entrance to the outlet; the number advertised on this platform is not helpful when I called two days ago to ask about my booking.
Secondly, the road from the entrance down to the parking bays is steep requiring experience and skillful drivers especially when their vehicles are loaded with passengers or baggage.
Thirdly, the wash basin faucet in the bathroom of my room is loose, the shower head hose is inflexible, and the water pressure is below average.
AAnonymous UserActually this was my second time stayed in here, of cos the scenery is superb. However, my second time stay in here was not as good as before. The pillows was smell sour, body sweat odor and the bed also can feel the spring, not comfortable at all to sleep on for 2nites stay.
WWong khin yuThe toilet is so old! The outside of the house should be renovated even if it is not renovated! A lot of equipment is broken! How can I put it...it is more suitable for the local Malays to live! If it were me... I would never come back to this hotel again! !
NNorbert JohnThe view is magnificent. You can see the mountain very clear at early morning. The road condition to this place is quite challenging for 2wd vehicle. Extra cafeful during drive is a must cause some of the road is steep and visibility during night is limited especially when its raining. Overall im satisfied with my stay.
