Sea View Sandakan Budget & Backpackers Hotel

So comfortable here and great value for money I ended up staying a week. Nice think quilt on bed, good Aircon, no noise in the dorms from outside. The staff are very nice and helpful with everything and good to book trips with them. Help yourself to breakfast, toast, plenty of jams to choose from, bananas and fresh boiled eggs. Hot and cold free water, tea and coffee. Fridge, microwave , gas cooker, kitchen equipment. Great waterfront view with breeze and hammocks.

This place had great reviews, but in reality this place is really not that nice. The room was clean and the linens and the towels smelled good. The common areas of this place are very dirty. Everything you touch is sticky. Same thing with the shower. If you can afford another place, I would recommend checking it out. This place is not that great.

Basic but clean and friendly❤️Breakfast is included (bread, jam, small bananas, boiled eggs). We booked a family room and stayed two single nights between jungle expeditions on the KINABATANGAN river. The first time we got a room out to the street and the second time we had a view of the harbour. Bathrooms are shared but clean. All in all great value for money in July 2024 we paid RM122 for a family room including tourist tax.
