The apartment was very spacious and clean; air conditioning worked perfectly, and I had more space than I would need; there are also many shopping and eating opportunities in the vicinity (minutes of walking distance). Arlyn was a phantastic host and even found time (or had the opportunity) to take me to the Sepilok Nature Resort by her very nice car. In any case I view this as a great exception! It just underscores how excellent a host she is!

A fully furnished and squeaky clean apartment that has some of the best amenities I have ever seen in a serviced apartment. Absolutely loved our stay here and wished it were longer. Close to the airport, and there are plenty of restaurants within walking distance.

A very cosy house, peaceful location. It met all our expectations. It's a bit further away from the center, but close to Sepilok and the airport. There is a big supermarket 20-minut walk away, but you can get Grab easily. The owner is very kind and helpful.

The host is kind and understanding. The host is willing to wait until midnight to hand over the house keys. The transaction is also very easy, after booking, the host immediately chats. Regarding the house, the house is very neat and clean. The condition of the house exceeds expectations. The house is very comfortable, fast wifi. The location is close to the city and several attractions. Overall, I am very satisfied and will come back again another day.

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. ⭐
