Another day, another wedding to attend and this time it was
in Keningau. During my heydays I often made a pit-stop at Keningau whenever I
rode the express bus to KK (yup, those were the days… of me being stuck in a
bus for almost 10 hours) so it was somewhat nostalgic for me. Mind you, the
drive to Keningau via the Kalabakan-Nabawan route was somewhat shorter but
rougher in terms of (bad) road condition (this is especially true if you are
driving a Myvi like us but you won’t have that much of a problem should you
drive a 4x4 vehicle instead). Another thing that I noticed about Keningau was
that even though it was a relatively small district, it has a lot of
roundabouts; a fact that amuses me and my partner greatly.
As there are fairly limited choices of accommodation available (via my trusted
hotel booking app) when it comes to Keningau, we have no choice but to look for a hotel using other means and that is when I found out about this hotel while
searching in Google. Google comments also indicated that it was one of the top
choices for accommodation in Keningau so we decided to just go for it. And
thankfully, everything turned out to be great as the hotel is located in a very
strategic place, surrounded by shops & food. Situated within the Adnan Shopping
Complex (it was more of a commercial area than an actual shopping complex), the
modern looking hotel provided a very comfortable and spacious room at a very
affordable price. We estimated that such room would probably cost more in KK so
we were happy with our double bedding room (as their king size bed rooms were all taken during our stay). A slight problem that we’ve encountered however was
regarding their shower; as both the overhead and detachable shower heads turned
on simultaneously everytime we took a bath, causing a minor flood in no
time. Other great things that I would like to highlight were their not-too-busy
public parking spaces (as there were bound to be at least one or two spaces
available almost all the time) as well as their no deposit
policy. Their staff was also very courteous and approachable, making our
stay a pleasant one.
All in all…

problems here as our check in and check out went on smoothly)
