Yes, the rooms are teeny. So much so, that you can shower and use the toilet at the same time. However, I've had smaller rooms in London, where the experience was quite miserable. What made this different? The fact that they had very fast and consistent wifi, the cleaning service was spotless, and the restaurant directly connected to the hotel was one of the best Malay restaurants that we ate at, and it was cheap to boot. O, silly me, AND the hotel was incredibly priced. Freakin' incredible. About $28USD/nt incredible. O wait, I'm not done yet, did I mention the location is central to everything? You've got the Filipino Market to the sw (which I did not find any Filipino food...curious), the Sunday (Gaya St) Market to the e, Jesselton Point to the n, and Centre Point mall to the s. All within walking distance. Wow. Now for the cons...Honestly, this is a great value, but just to be thorough: If you're going to get a room close to the wifi router, it's going to be slightly street noisy...or more than slightly. But consider this if you're coming from U.S.: KK is 15 hrs ahead of LAX, you're going to be tired by 8pm here, b/c it's 5am back home. Use some ear plugs if you must, you will sleep. The toilet was tricky to use...we figured it out on our own, but that was probably the most annoying thing about the room. And then again, once you visit your first public bathroom where you get charged to use vile facilities where 1/3 of the toilets aren't working, no toilet paper is provided, and the floor is flooded with fetid water (o, poor you if you chose to wear flip flops) that dumps into a trough...basically, your run of the mill asian restroom...You're not going to care a bit that your hotel toilet has a combo flush code. *It's spotlessly clean* (And then again, chances are there will be nothing wrong with your toilet). As for toiletry, only soap was provided. If you need other stuff, there are stores around the corner if you head south and turn left...Seriously, if you're looking for a budget hotel...Look no further. This is it. O wait....How did I forget the best part: your room has a perfectly functioning arctic cold A/C. If you don't understand the significance of this, this must be your first trip to Asia...
Room Tip: If wifi is important, you're going to be placed near the street. If sleep is important, you'...
