I admit that the main reason why I eventually stayed at this relatively new boutique hotel was because of their eye-catching reception booth (yup, an actual booth rather than a lobby) in the middle of KK Times Square, Kota Kinabalu. The booth itself is located at the back of Dojo Nanyang Kopi House and adjoining to the Fishmarket Restaurant. But to access their rooms, you need to walk towards the staircase right next to said restaurant, where you will also find a lift. Although you can only access the room area with a valid keycard, safely might still be an issue going in and out of the place. Plus they shared the same floors as the Vibrant Hostel. Room wise, everything is still brand new & clean which was nice. Although predictably the sizing might be on the smaller side but there's still space for you to put your things. There's also a TV equipped within the room but with no available channels (unless you have your own Netflix/Prime Video account). And do be careful when using their shower/bathroom as the tiles were those slippery types. Also the hotel does not provide any free parkings (but paid public parkings are available) & they do required a deposit of RM100 per room upon check in.
