“This is a solid option in Sandakan, particularly for families or business travelers; I note that the meeting facilities, coupled with proximity to historic sites, create a functional base. Rooms are comfortable and generously sized, with large bathrooms, though ironing requires a bit of a trek, and while there's no restaurant beyond breakfast, local eateries are close. The hotel's repeat guest rate suggests consistent satisfaction, which, given the price point, is reassuring.”
