"This place is such a dump for the price. We stayed in a standard room which was a dump. Only one plug for the entire room. water heater didn't work. There was not even any way to make a cup of tea by boiling water in the room. Aircon couldn't keep the room cool during the afternoon. The breakfast really sucked. all in all, this is way overpriced for what you get. But, I guess that's the sad story of Sabah in general. People keep booking crap. So, resorts keep providing crap for their guests. "

"Top class hotel, fabulous views. Limited vegan menus are my only criticism"

"Had booked for 2 nights but left after 1 night! Terrible experience! Mindful this is a 2 star resort but the place was dilapidated, unkempt & stinking. Resort is in lush tropical setting but the whole place is neglected. Very tacky decor with concrete or plastic painted to look like wood/rustic. The place was a mess - boxes, rubble, general stuff lying everywhere. Staff are uninterested & generally loiter around. The pool was vile! A layer of scum & dirty around the tiles and the water was cloudy with lots of debris - we even found a bandaid floating. The wooden lounge beds were rotten wood and so uncomfortable. There was a pungent smell of dirty water throughout. Room was primitive with a flimsy door - didn’t feel safe at all. Given a bath towel but no hand towel - bath towel was frayed & very grubby. The bed & pillow were hard as hell and lumpy!! Woke up with a sore back Breakfast was rotten. We left the next day - staff didn’t even acknowledge or ask how was our stay! The only positive is it’s close to the sunbears & orangutan sanctuaries. Sepilok is a lovely area but consider paying a bit more for somewhere better (the Nature Resort across the road was great)."

"We stayed one night so that we could do the night walk at RDC. Only 5 minute walk away. Breakfast was lovely and access to a drinking water machine meant we could fill our flask. Needed in the heat! All in all, very nice stay."

"Good basic accommodation "

"Overall this wad good hotel for an overnight stay. Breakfast service was very poor."

"Clean room, friendly staff, great swimming pool, but food options could be improved on the menu"

"It was only a brief stopover before a river cruise so didn't expect much and I guess it met expectations. Area around the hotel was a little dirty and there wasn't much to walk to. Hotel room was basic (fine) and the sheets and floor were clean. Bathroom wasn't as clean. Had a TV but it came with a 2 prong plug ??? Which makes no sense when its a 3 prong country! Breakfast very limited for western palate - no fruit or breaded things apart from toast. Overall as expected - not sure it's 3 star though "
