Thanks you. The second time i stayed at the Promenade hotel. The hotel is beautiful, clean and the room is big, suitable for my family ..

Toujoo is tucked in a little corner of KK city center, easily accessible for tourists and locals alike. Our room was clean (room 102-studio double window), bed super comfy, bathroom is tiny (expected) but well ventilated and water pressure is good. Soundproofing is good and it's quite quiet, we didn't hear our neighbours and the storm brewing outside. The room is equipped with Bluetooth speakers, which we really liked. No TV. Plenty of electrical points to charge your devices. Also, guests can use the facilities in OPIS (between Ground floor and First floor). Great area to lounge around, make your own coffee/tea, play pool, or read. There's also a house cat (Pablo?) if you need some pet therapy. 😆 Sundays are good for ladies (free flow cocktail at the Tamu rooftop bar 5-7pm) plus the food is superb! Overall this place is highly recommended!

Always stay here if visit KK. Affordable price and new hotel. Got aircond & fan in the room. Near with night market inanam.

Great location with beautiful surrounding atmosphere, Most friendly and helpful receptionist and staff ever, lovely and great first impression of hotel.  Everything about the hotel was exceptional.  Room itself was well equipped and comfortable. I was very pleased with my stay

Great location. Nearby got quite a number of restaurants operating till late night. Cleaniness can be improved. But in overall, the stay is considered satisfactory. There's a shopping mall nearby too with walking distance away

Free and ample open space parking in front of the hotel; Front office very bare but staff helpful and courteous; Lifts are old but functionable and fast; Tiles are missing; Corridor walls are thin and old - can hear everything inside from the outside; Corridor carpet is dark and smelly; Corridor lighting dim and eerie; Room door very sturdy but no bell; Shower gel and shampoo available; No fridge but drinking water and beverage sachets available; Bathroom smelly no exhaust fan; Shower water not strong; Towels not cotton and yellowish; TV out of order; Hair dryer functionable; Air-con leaking water mildly; Air-con remote needs replacing; Room stank of stale ciger smoke mixed with sewage; Window stuck cannot shut and can fall to the ground floor if forced; Window latch screw one missing and the other almost going off loose; This hotel is in dire need of complete modern refurbishments.

Great hotel. I enjoy my stay here. The cons is this hotel is a little bit far from center of kota kinabalu and near clubbing spot i guess. Too many cars park around the hotel and noisy.

the front desk staff were 5 star people. Helpful, pleasant , easy to communicate with and trustworthy. We left our bags with them between check out and a grab to the airport. We stayed 3 nights. There were a few of us. The double /twin deluxe rooms varied a little. Some had an odour , but it wasn't unpleasant. The furniture and the linen were all clean , new and comfortable. Because the hotel is on the main drag through the centre of the city, traffic noise continues into the night. I get on with city noise OK. The hotel has a smoking floor, make sure you specify yes or no to smoking on your reservation. Seems odd to allow tobacco but not Durian ... Showers were centrally fed , but the hot water never faltered. The toilet /shower room is a little cramped. There is coffee and tea and water and a kettle. TV ? Yes. Quiet aircon which worked and was adjustable. Outside the hotel across the road is the Centre point mall. Yup. A mall . 20 m to the right is a cafe with great buffet food or menu from breakfast through to dinner. 10 MYR gets a person well fed and watered. Ten minutes walk towards the waterfront is the night market. You get the idea, ? The hotel is in a prime central location.

Its fine for a 2 night stay. There is designated parking (safe) which is very very important. The hotel did not provide iron in rooms but ironing room is on the 1st floor. Water dispenser provided in the hallway for public use. Staff are very nice, friendly and helpful🫰🏻 We requested room service and my carrot pillow was really comfortable tucked in🥰😂

First time staying at Hii-5 so far ok, cuma tandas/mangkuk tandas dalam keadaan rosak goyang, Dan ada sedikit bising bila pekerja cuci tempat pembuangvsampah di bawah dalam pukul 3 subuh.. so far hotel sangat baik bersih,strategic.senang untuk link ke mana2, senang cari tempat makan Dan kedai2 serbaaneka. Orange,7e Dan restaurant semua ada. Harga pun sangat berbaloi.. thanks hii-5 hotel

The location is ok near to dining areas and 7-eleven. The hotel is a bit old fashion, clean but can be improved. I had to request to use the iron & hair dryer from housekeeping The mineral water provided has expired though . Same goes for the soap and shampoo 😅 What i like is the reception and service by the staff two thumbs up👍👍

Booked this Inn2 because I couldn’t see any commitments on Sipadan Inn 3 or 1. It was okay for overnight. The first time I stayed there, it was a normal small room with window facing the street. However, when I checked in again a week later I got a room in the middle without window, even though I booked the same queen room. The location is not great, Inn 3 and 1 are at better spots in the small seafront town, easier to reach than Inn 2. Among the three, Inn 3 is the newest and, after a visit, I noticed it has better rooms with better facilities. Had WiFi in room at Inn 2, the bed was very basic and sheets not crispy clean, the shower was okay as well as the air conditioning. Semporna is a tiny town with most places within walking distance, though the narrow, car-lined streets are not that clean or tidy to walk through, especially if you carry luggage. From what I heard from other travelers, very basic facilities wherever you stay, so lower your expectations then probably all good.

The hotel does not change towels in a timely manner. The bed is not particularly clean. The front desk service is very enthusiastic. Other facilities are very good! There are Chinese waiters. There is also a direct restaurant next to it. It is suitable for partners who come to travel for the first time 😉

Clean and comfortable hotel, stayed here in order to be closer to the airport after scuba diving in Sipadan. Easy walking distance to many restaurants and shops. Easy to get a Grab to the airport. Would stay here again if needed a place to stay as a convenient place to lay your head and simplify logistics

I didn’t really stay at this hotel but paid a visit when I was in town. The staff there were very friendly and showed me a couple of rooms as I requested. It is definitely in better condition than the Inn2 I stayed in. It is the newest among the three Sipadan Inns, at a better location, especially if you go to Mabul with Scuba Junkie, very close to their office and their jetty. Thought to let travelers know as I didn’t see any comment when booking hotels in Semporna. It is a tiny seafront town, everything close by but those narrow, car-lined streets are not that easy to walk through if you carry luggage on a hot day.

The hotel is OK for a short stay, but nothing I would like for a 2 weeks vacation. The rooms are clean. We had two rooms for us 3 people - one room was bigger but without window, another was quite small, but with window. The location of the hotel is quite central, the only weird thing was that we wanted to order a Grab from this place in front and the drivers several times wanted to charge extra 20 MYR to pick up (despite in the application it was 10 MYR), so we walked a bit and ordered from there. I liked the staff at Memory Boutique, they were really friendly and helpful - unlike many other people we met on our trip in Semporna. In my room there was a quite strong smell (I guess someone smoked out of the window before), that was a bit annoying but I still could handle it. Bathroom was clean and looked nice. Overall good choice for a short stay in Semporna.

Renting a room under Hotel Emas Tawau: Imagine every time when you have the urge and rush to washroom to answer the nature's call (number 2), only to find out that there is NO WATER, and whatever coming out needs to be put on hold. Each and every time, each and every day, that has been my life in Tawau in the past 2 months. Empty water tank or faulty water pump, either way NO WATER. Need to shower - no water. Need to pass motion - no water. Need to cook or wash - no water Need to practise hand hygiene (wash hand) in a super red zone during pandemic - NO WATER. Have been paying >RM800 per month for rental, water, and electricity with NO INTERNET CONNECTION, for staying in a unit where rats outnumber the human.

While Pacific Inn served its purpose for a night, I might explore other options when returning from Mabul. The rooms at Pacific Inn are compact but quiet, clean, and reasonably well-equipped. The air conditioning works well, and the WiFi is reliable.

The hotel room is the same as advertising. The room is clean, comfortable and spacious. The price is affordable. Service is also really good. The hotel receptionist is really friendly and the staff is also helpful. They always provide you with the help you need and will assist you the best way they can. This hotel is located at a strategic location that provides you with a bunch of restaurants and also a mini mart nearby. I had such a great time staying here and will stay here again in the future. P/s: The picture below is the scenery from my hotel room

I like this youth hostel very much. The location is very good. It is in the center of the town's residential area. There are places to eat, drink and visit night markets around it. It is more than 10 minutes away from the pier and is quite local. The air conditioning is very cold!
