I highly recommend this place! It was the most satisfying and best-seller I stayed at on this trip. I stayed on the third floor, and the balcony had a fantastic sea view. The room was spotless, and it's located right in town, just a short walk from the meeting point. It's a newly opened hotel, and the overall experience was excellent. The housekeepers, Xiao Dai and Xiao Enren, were incredibly welcoming and spoke fluent Chinese, making communication very smooth. The room was in a great location and extremely quiet, with absolutely no noise. It looked even better in person than in the photos. Drying clothes was also incredibly convenient; the sun is strong here, and clothes washed at midday were dry in just one hour. It was a very worry-free and comfortable stay—a truly worthwhile experience!

婷方tfOur stay this time was fantastic! The room was spotless, and the overall environment was very comfortable, leading to excellent sleep quality – I slept soundly all night without any issues. The staff's service attitude was superb; everyone was so friendly and even proactively recommended local food and attractions.
A special shout-out to Lucy! She was incredibly thoughtful, providing professional yet warm service. She answered all our questions and even took the initiative to help with various requests, including arranging our transportation (hotel to airport transfer), which was handled perfectly.
Overall, I'm extremely satisfied with this stay and will definitely be back next time! Highly recommended! 🥰❤️

Location is centrally placed in the Town and with that comes some annoyances: street noise, stray fighting dogs and loud neighbours, including some guests who ignore the ” from 10pm quiet rule ” ear plugs are essential.
Outdoor shoes to be removed at the front door.
100Riggit is taken at checkin and reimbursed on check-out.
I had the double bunk bed room. Comfortable wide bed with bedside lamp ,a bonus. No wardrobes,could do with more hanging hooks. Shared bathrooms. There were three showers and three toilets which I never had to queue for one. Each shower room and toilet was supplied with flipflops. Loads of 'do's' and 'don'ts” notices everywhere with threats of heavy monetary penalties.
AC worked well, I hate hard floors so used soft slippers in my room.
Everywhere is spotlessly clean in the common areas as mentioned, although my room wasn't or rubbish emptied in the three days I was there.
The kitchenette was adequate for hot drinks but someone else was cooking breakfast in the microwave. Resident cat's still present.
The bus terminal for Tawau is about 50metres down the road,extremely convenient!

iwasakimolajiA great transit hotel. But if you need to stay longer won't be a problem. Located at the center of Semporna commercial area. Lots of shops and restaurant nearby. The jetty is also very near to this hotel. You won't have problems walking around the area. Choose the room with the view and you will never regret it.

We were island hopping in Semporna, and knowing the living conditions here were average, we chose the Mushroom House, which was considered a tourist attraction in Semporna. Sister Ping treated everyone who stayed there like a friend, even upgrading our room, sending a driver to pick us up in town, and even taking us back to our accommodation after the island hopping trip. I knew she had to take a taxi to pick us up, but I felt embarrassed, after all, the room rate was there. The overall experience was really good, and the people were warm and kind.

Considering Semporna, this place offers decent value for the price. However, the water pressure is quite low, and it's either scalding hot or freezing cold. Even though the staff don't speak much English, they are incredibly friendly. Overall, it's pretty good value for money.

Kaimendaji749Great location! It's right behind a gas station, and the entrance faces away from it, so my friend and I circled around a few times before realizing it was right behind us. The room was huge, honestly the best hotel we stayed at in Semporna, and also the cheapest. The only downside is that it only has stairs. The front desk is staffed 24/7. We had an early flight and needed to leave for the airport around 4:30 AM, but the front desk staff was there to process our deposit refund when we woke them up. It's located near this church.

The place is near to the fish market and nearby eateries. Hence, you may need earplugs for a better sleep as the sound proofing is barely noticeable, especially if you stay at the one with balcony.
The rooms are spacious for 2. They do not provide daily cleaning services unless requested as per posts from other guests.
It would be more enjoyable if the cleanliness can be enhanced, especially behind the cabinets which could be moved, there are many small dead insects body which gives the room a hint of the insect smell.
Attention to cleanliness for scrubbing of sink and floor to mop will be much appreciated.
The mirrors should also be checked to avoid safety hazard as the corner one that I stayed is already loose from the edges.
Looking forward for a more improved and enhanced version of the place as it deserves to be.
