Very clean and comfortable. It was probably our best accommodation in Borneo when it comes to the quality of the rooms, and the personnel was very nice and attentive. It’s a bit far from the city centre but still located in a bustling commercial zone where you can find plenty of restaurants, cafes and shops.

    I am a regular before the MCO.

    I am a regular before the MCO. This trip is my first visit and after that will be on monthly basis. I love the foods here but since MCO, Many Businesses closed down but some still survived. Some new outlets and will take time to explore all this in this few months. I will always support the local businesses and spend my money locally indirectly helping to boost the local economy. Let hope every breadwinners will be able to put foods on the table for their family. It is time to move on and work hard after the pandemic. May GOD bless everyone .....

    The seafood was superb there but it will be great if list of good restaurant provided as guide . If buying fish or dry fish back home do bargain for good price, but it is still cheaper than Kuala Lumpur.

    Tawau is a rather quiet city with bright beginnings and future. Ethnicities shine brightly in such a delightful small town. Tawau will grow because of its unexplored beauty of sun, sea, and shore. Tawau is also famous as a fishing ground in the Sulu and Sulawesi Seas. The fish market in the Tawau is a real eye-opener with different species for sale - whether legal or not legal. Small size hammerhead, bull sharks, different species of stingrays and barracudas are all in the fish market. The Sabah state government should encourage a fishing canning economy in Sabah to avail employment opportunities for my countrymen. Nevertheless, once Covid-19 is over, this place will be swamped by tourists from East Asia and Malaysia. Adios and those that wish to laze in Tawau, by all means.

    The hotel is a solid, basic hotel with some fun decoration. Clean bathrooms, good water pressure, clean bed and overall room. The staff was attentive and resolved an issue that was created with some damaged luggage. The location was deceptively good...there are a surprising amount of restaurants and several laundries within a short walk and a grab ride to the center was easy enough. Overall, an easy stay.

    On our last day in Semporna we were looking for a hotel in Tawau before our flight next morning out of there. Note that it takes 30-40 min to get to the airport from Tawau. This hotel is much better than the hotels in Semporna and the area is very quite. With good restaurants in walking distance. Open, even though we were over the Lunar new year. The room is big, well equipped, and quite.
