As a regular customer here, I keep coming back because the hostel is clean, quiet and safe. I came to stay to rest before catching my flight or after.. I usually don’t have problems to sleep. BUT! for this stay, I didn’t get any sleep at all! It’s because of the westerners guest making noise, talking and laughing until 1.30am. Mind you there is already notes on the common area telling the guest to keep quiet after 10pm. Maybe the reception needs to remind the guest during check in?
Dear future guest,
Please be mindful, have some common sense. People staying here to rest. Be respectful!
The environment is very good, in the middle of nature so there are more insects and birds. The bathroom shower is integrated and relatively clean. The hotel's dogs and cats are very cute and friendly. The restaurant does not have many dishes and has limited serving time. It is very close to RDC, only a 10-minute walk away. The hotel front desk staff is also very friendly. The wifi signal at the front desk is the best, and it is very weak and almost non-existent in the room. Overall, I will book again.

It was a pleasure stay, if you're looking for a place to sleep or rest for the night before continuing yr journey the next day, this the best option for ya. If u don't mind the sharing bathroom or mixed room that is, but its part of the journey. Has a small kitchen for u to prepare yr meal etc, and a living room where u can eat or hang out. I like the balcony being accessible by the guests too, can hang out my wet towel n clothes. Overall great experience, definitely worth booking again in the future
Everything was ok except the walls don't have any insulation. You literally can hear next door and outside corridor sound. This is ok when travelers know how to keep relatively quiet especially at night. Unfortunately, I couldn't sleep because group of ladies walked and talked between 3 rooms until 1am. I have no choice but the next day i requested front desk to give me paper, pen & sticker to remind travelers to keep quiet. I sticked over the passage and It worked. I had good night sleep after that.
I suggest hotel to do a proper notice sticker in several languages as reminder.
I will still consider to stay with them because i like the location which right next to diving shops and eateries. Very convenient. And the reception staffs were very friendly. A 4 Stars for me.
A newly build hotel located in the heart of Semporna town. Surrounding with a lot of facilities such as local restaurants, souvenir shops and 24hours mart. Nearby to bank, clinic, pharmacy and other facilities. Easily access to the nearby jetty for activities such as snorkeling, diving and island hopping either by taxi or just walk in.
In the town of Semporna, this kind of youth hostel has a very good environment and atmosphere, and also includes breakfast. I met a lot of friends here and it was a very happy stay.
It is better to live in the town than in the suburbs. The B&B in the suburbs is far away and you need to take a taxi. There are flying ants at night, and the calls of many animals in nature will be very noisy when sleeping at night. It is very quiet here in the town, not far from KFC, the streets outside are very clean, and even the public toilets inside are clean. There are more foreigners from Europe and America living here, mainly because it is not expensive! The front desk can't speak Chinese, but they can communicate in simple English. The disadvantage is that the room is small and has no window. It clearly says that there is a window on the room I booked, but they said that the platform wrote it wrong, so they could only give me this one. It doesn't matter, the stay is okay later. The first floor of the second floor is where you eat breakfast, which is also very clean. Two people clean it every day! If next time, I will choose here again!
The accommodation is pretty new, WiFi is fast, the room is very clean, the owners are very friendly and helpful, you have a really warm shower, only the room was not 20 am as advertised, but about 10 am, which is more common in Semporna , we slept very well and recommend the house because we only used the room to sleep.

JJoo HongHad a wonderful night at this place. Beautiful place. Only negative is the kampung road, it is neglected and full of potholes. Need a 4WD for this road and up the steep road to the chalets

GGuest UserI stayed at the hotel for four days and felt very good. The hotel owner was very friendly and thoughtful. The relevant facilities and equipment are very complete, and the hot water is abundant. I recommend choosing this one, thank you

EELN.CEverything is superb beyond expectation. The hostel was friendly enough to accommodate my late check-in arrival. The room, common area bathroom are maintained a good quality. I am very happy with the stay.
GGuest UserNote: This store will ”deliberately” charge a tourist tax (this does not happen in other stores). If no evidence is found, it will charge a tourist tax (RM10 per day). Fortunately, I found the paid tax sent to me by the ordering website. Only after passing the tourist tax ”invoice” can you get back the excess tourist tax!
BBeeBaeeThe hotel room is the same as advertising. The room is clean, comfortable and spacious. The price is affordable. Service is also really good. The hotel receptionist is really friendly and the staff is also helpful. They always provide you with the help you need and will assist you the best way they can. This hotel is located at a strategic location that provides you with a bunch of restaurants and also a mini mart nearby. I had such a great time staying here and will stay here again in the future.

AAnonymous UserThe location is good, next to shops and not too hard to park. The family room is on the ground floor, the staffs like to spend their leisure time at the counter area recording tiktok and listening musics. We can hear their voices and music even from the room. There's no staff in the morning when we need to check out too. The bathroom is very spacious and clean. Loveeee the interior though!
