Courtyard Hotel @ 1Borneo
Good location and the staffs are friendly. Shower is running slow. The water is sometime hot and cold. No mirror in the room. The carpet at walk way is smelly and the breakfast is disappointing.

SUPER OYO 89944 Stay Inn
So frustrated. Checking in late because flight got delayed but then still got this kind of room. Unattended. Looks like somebody else just got out of this room right bfr I checked in without room service at all. Not recommended at all. Luckily I'm just staying here for a night bfr I can check in to another hotel. Yes it's cheap but still not worth it. Rm100 for a night in this condition is so frustrating.

Impiana Mutiara Hotel @ Kampung Air
Location is opposite a night market. A bit distance from gaya street. Room condition is totally different from the picture shown in their ads. Room is small, with funny smell inside every time I get into my room. I can hear people talking outside and banging their door at midnight. The lucky thing is air conditioner is still cold and hot water shower is still hot. Will I come again? NO!

Hotel Deleeton Kota Kinabalu
Good location, but untrustworthy, irresponsible and unfriendly staff. We booked 4 rooms but only 2 rooms in good condition, another 2 rooms the toilet door spoiled & AC no working, promised to come to service but until we check out the AC still remain the same, hope they can improve their services and facilities or else nobody will come in the future.

Tang Dynasty Park Hotel
Looking for simple, easy, clean hotel with affordable price for a one or two nights stay, you can stay here. Convenient for me as it is near to the event location and other places. They have ample parking space too especially for big cars.
