Bathroom fan is on 24/7. Shower doors broken won’t close. Lack of hot water (6 min max). Extremely Leaky toilet. Leaky bidet hose. Broken air conditioner remote. Loud generator sounds throughout the day/night. Kettle cannot fit under the sink at all to refill water. Lacking “do not disturb” door sign. Loud sounds from water pipes. Cafe inside the hotel doesn’t operate. Cafe outside of the hotel is cash only. Stray dogs wandering around.

Transit hotel ok, anything else look elsewhere.
Shuttle bus from airport to hotel departed late, we had to wait for more than 1 hour for all the hotel guest to arrive at the waiting area. The bus did not have any space for our luggage. Had to find another van to bring us to the hotel. No lift to the rooms, had to leave bags in the reception. Almost midnight by the time we checked in - too tired, no change of clothes, room bed and furniture looks old. Air-con blew at best luke warm air and bath/toilet has seen better days. Simple breakfast, if paying better eat at cafe outside hotel.

Cheap hotel
First day at hotel the rooms aircon isn't working very well, I set it to 16 degrees Celsius and it's still quite warm to hot, request to change room, the reception said okay, however I can get the keys of the new room until I take everything I brought out, because I have already unpacked everything, I wanted to take the new keys for the new room and keep my current key till I transferred everything over but the receptionist said no, cannot. Also wifi is pretty weak, like it's not stable. The aircon of the new room is somewhere alright, The aircon gets cold after a while, so I had to wait for a while. TV channels is pretty bad, not much English channels other than a soccer channel, the rest are malay channels, TV can only view images and musics from a external media Toilet doors are pretty rough to handle, like hard to open and close, Would only recommend this hotel if the person staying there just needs a cheap and good enough place to rest.

A good value outside of the city
The bed was comfortable. The television had limited channels that didn't come in very well. The staff was friendly and helpful. I really liked that a supermarket was right next door and bus #55 was convenient to take to the city and back.

A great new modern hotel, with
A great new modern hotel, with decent size rooms, staff helpful, and free Wi-fi, which worked well. Not in the city, but only a short bus ride to the city. Buses run about every half hour, and only cost B$ 1.00. Only a half hour walk or take the bus to the Suburb of Gadong, a huge shopping area, with a big shopping centre, called simply "The Mall".
