For those of you who bring family and need a large room and not long duration may be suitable. This hotel is an old building. The lighting is dim. There is no lift, so the goods must be lifted to the floor of the room. The receptionist asked me for RM 10 per room on the grounds of a traveler, without a receipt. I took two family type rooms. Several times to Tawau, this is the first time asked for additional money. Hopefully useful..

This hotel is also good, even though it's cheap, all the toiletries are provided. I recommend that those who cannot return home should stay 1 night at the hotel. only that there is no lift and no kettle. There is a cuckoo water dispenser right outside the room. the size of the room is satisfactory, there is a lot of parking at night, it is near restaurants, it is not very quiet, but in the morning you will hear the sizzling of the cook below there is a restaurant. Fajar location above Sabah chicken rice. overall okay, I asked for a non-smoking room, even though the smell of cigarette smoke outside was so bad.

The room was very spacious and clean, location is superb right smack middle of the town. Lots of eateries once you walk out from hotel lobby. Air-con good. The downside was no light switches near door main entrance, the only light switch was near the bed, which was so inconvenient. And no charging port near the bed. It's only available near the table. Room lightning was poor. Pillow so bad, really can throw away. Haha.
