We (11 of us) stayed here for a night before heading to Mabul Island the next morning. We rented 2 rooms and mine comfortably fit for 5. Everyone got their own bed. (And I think there is still place to put another 2 single beds!) The facilities is OK like toilet/shower ensuit, dressing table, cupboard, towels, soaps, fan and air-cond.... More

We stayed here for one night after staying in Mabul diving. The room had a comfortable bed; but the bathroom however was one toilet where the flusher did not work. There were no sink; the wall had a shower. I guess the fun bit would be standing on the toilet showering (if you like such).

Regret to stay in City Inn, Semporna. Astro is controlled by the hotel (change to AEC Channel while we're enjoying HBO - don't understand Chinese ma...), air-conditioner is off from 1.00 a.m - 5.00 a.m for no reason (maybe to save cost but we pay for it, isn't it? RM90 ma...) Whoever want to stay in Semporna, my advice is... More

Stayed there for one night. Aircon was loud and hardly working, dogs barking and the locals love to speed on the road just outside at 3am. Price is cheap but so is the whole hotel. Front desk however very friendly and willing to help. Also location is inconvenient as it takes 10 min walk to the dive centers. Would not... More

The hotel in general is quite good by the price, but the last day my mobile phone was stolen in my room, while I was outside. I suppose is my fault, because in the room a page say clearly that no valuables objects must be left inside... the most strange thing is that my Digital Reflex Camera (and my friend's... More

We stayed in City Inn for two nights. Good thing was that the room was clean, airconditioned and that there was a hot shower. Bad thing was that it was very noisy. It was close to a karaoke bar, so you heard this guys all the time, you hear the road in the morning and the hotel staff is very... More
