Late checkin was pretty easy and hassel-free with clear instruction. Staff are very nice to help keeping my luggage while I'm away for Kinabalu climb. Location is perfect as it's a bustling area and close to everything. Easy to walk around.

Excellent and friendly communication from booking andthroughout stay. Location is amazing as it’s in the heart of Gaya Street. I had a room on the back of the building, so there was no street noise, but front rooms probably would be pretty noisy....
