Okay so this is my first time staying at an accomodation built from shipping containers (which seems to be the 'it' design at the moment) as I was always curious about them. And what better time to do so especially when my hubby had to do some business in Semporna quite recently right?
There are actually a couple of other shipping containers based hotels in Semporna but we ultimately decided to stay at this one mainly due to its location (they're situated right by the Seafest area, facing the local marine police station - which also adds a more secure feel to them). Parking spots are available within the small compound of the hotel and checking in and out were a breeze. To be honest I was already expecting the small sized (but clean and comfortable) room that we'd been assigned to but I was pleasantly surprised to discovered that their bathroom & showers were pretty spacious. I'd also enjoyed the view that I've gotten from the balcony of my room, but the downside of staying at a container hotel was that you could practically hear other patron's footsteps clearly from your room (even if they're at the other end of the corridor). Oh and if you're hoping to relax while watching tv then think again since they only had 2 channels available (and both were very grainy).
Type - Balcony Deluxe Double
Room - 4/5 (might be a bit small in size but very clean in condition)
Price - 4/5 (quite competitive for such accomodation)
Service - 5/5 (their staff were mostly male but they were very polite which was nice)
Decor - 4/5 (mostly has that modern & 'industrial' vibe)
Facilities - 5/5 (this is mainly a no-frills type of hotel so if you wanted somewhere safe to sleep for the night then this place is for you)
Location - 5/5 (I just loved that I can walk to the Seafest & floating restaurant area in about 5-10 minutes)
