This apartment was very modern and clean. The view was excellent and the security made us feel very safe. There is a lovely pool and relaxation area just outside the ground floor. this apartment is on the very edge of town so you look over the jungle. It is very easy and cheap to get a 'grab' taxi into the center and to places like Sepilok. Would highly recommend.

We actually stayed here 2 separate times during our trip to Sandakan. We stayed for a couple nights before our overnight trip to Selingan “Turtle” Island and then stayed here again afterwards because we liked it so much and it was perfect for our needs!

    Apart from a young gentleman handing us the key, our contact was through Whattsapp which was ok. The lady booked a river cruise for us at the last moment, and it was outstanding. For a budget hotel, it was a good deal and I would recommend it. Location was good too.

    AeCotel, it is in a brilliant location, very close to the seafront and shopping centre. We really enjoyed our stay here, the staff were super helpful and let us store our luggage after checkout before we went to the airport. The room was very clean, with a comfortable bed. Would Def recommend this place to stay, great value 😃

    It's a cozy place to stay with family. The location is ideal. It's a quiet place to stay. Everything is complete with mineral waters, towels, soaps, combs & dental kits. They even provide a cute snack & drinks corner, you can pay with cash or QR scan. The house is very clean and smells nice. We will definitely come back again in the future. ⭐
