Great little hotel with a pool just outside downtown Sandakan. The hotel restaurant was a pleasant surprise, as they had good Malay food and the staff were amazing! Unfortunately they do not open in a timely manner for breakfast. Otherwise a great stay. If you're into history there are some cool photos in the lobby worth checking out. Apparently the property was a former residence of the governor of North British Borneo, and it is nice to see what it and the town used to look like.

4/10

The trip was booked for 2 adults and a child on a suite. When we arrived they applied extra charges for a rollaway bed eventhough it was booked as 3 people booking. We were left without toulet paper for a whole day as the housekeeping forgot to add when changing room and then again when we went to reception. Had to call 3 hours later from the room. It is expensive for what it provides and benefits from being the only larger hotel in the area.
