Guest Reviews
- Makos (8/5): - The boss is cool.
- Dawn (8/5): - Basic and clean. But bed was extremely uncomfortable. Staff very helpful and friendly.
- Melcyanna (2/5): Bad service - Honestly, the service was very bad. First i come i checked in for family room is ok. Then when we enter the room was very small. There only 2 socket available. We are 5 person need to share 1 small room for family room. Then that night suddenly the reception told me to pay for another rm20 extra bcuz we are 5 person stay in bcuz i book for 2 person only. So what does it means by family room if only 2 person can stay in? Better i book for the standard room only... N if they told me during i checked in maybe i still ok. But they told after we have checked in n at night already. So thats why i said its very bad services.
- Verified traveler (8/5): - 全体的には過ごしやすく快適でしたが、エレベーターがない、小さな虫が出る、などは我慢しなければなりませんでした。ただロケーションはとても良く、出歩くには便利でした。
- Meiju (8/5): Siisti ja hiljainen hostelli, ystävällinen palvelu - He (enkä minä) eivät olleet aluksi oikein selvillä millaisen huoneen olin varannut ja huoneen hakemiseen meni hieman aikaa aluksi, pelkällä nimellä se ei löytynyt. Muuten kaikki meni hyvin ja henkilökunta oli avuliasta. Lähtöni oli niin aikaisin, että en ehtinyt aamiaista nauttimaan. Kokonaisuudessaan hyvä kokemus. Hiljainen hostelli, ei ihan ytimessä, mutta ei kuitenkaan liian kaukana palveluista tai aktiviteeteista.
- Nicola (8/5): Clean, comfortable and friendly, would stay again - We had a double room with private bathroom. The downstairs dining area was a nice place to sit with a laptop, and we enjoyed the mix of toast and fruit for breakfast. Our bedroom was starting to look a little tired but had a comfortable bed and clean sheets. Staff were very helpful and welcoming, and offered to clean our room every day. On our floor were 2 showers and 2 toilets, all very clean, shared between a double and 2 three person rooms. Laundry right next door, and lots of good cheap places to eat within 5 mins walk. Rooms with shared bathroom looked slightly smarter, and were definitely roomier, so we would choose one of these next time.
- kwokki (10/5): - good and clean small room easy to go every where by walking
- Trent (10/5): Very clean, basic but nice - We were looking for somewhere cheap but do not like a place that is dirty. The reviews said that it was very clean and it was. Not the flashiest hotel but it’s very clean and just what you need. Staff were always very helpful and friendly. Would definitely stay here again
- YIFEI (2/5): - 强烈不推荐你们来这个住,不管价格便宜,还是不要去这个。不如去酒店,酒店比较好。
- Verified traveler (10/5): Very nice service! - cheap, good location, passionate servers!
- seorin (10/5): 위치가 좋아요 - 깨끗하고 위치도 유명 마트나 관광지 갈때 그랩택시로 4-9 링깃에서 해결됩니다. 이모님들도 친절하십니다. 저렴하게 여행하고 싶은 사람에게 추천합니다.
- Benjamin (6/5): No elevator - If you are staying at the hostel, it is at level 4 without elevator. It is a disaster!
- Verified traveler (8/5): Not a bad, little hotel. - Decent, little hotel located within walking distance of many places - Philippine Market, Gaya Street Market, restaurants, shops, the water, etc. Nothing fancy, but a clean place with pleasant staff. Only disappointing part of the stay was breakfast. A couple pieces of toast and watermelon just ain't going to cut it.
- jooooo (4/5): 여기서 돈 잃어버림ㅋ - 첫날 늦게 가서 체크인함, 친절은 했음
다음날 환전하고 관광하고 왓는데 방 청소해줘서 좋았음(연박이엇음)
그다음날 체크아웃하고 공항가고서야 돈이 없어진걸 알았음
가져간돈 반은 환전하고 반은 캐리어 위에 걍 둔걸로 기억하는데 그게 없어짐ㅋㅋ
직원분은 모르는 일이라고 하는데
여기 말곤 돈을 꺼낸적도 정리한적도 없음
내 돈 20만원 먹고 좋겟다 청소한분ㅇㅇ
솔직히 코타는 여행가서도 돈 별로 안써서 게하보다는 저렴한 호텔 찾아서 가는게 좋습니다
호텔짱 호텔을 가세여
여기는 솔직히 수압 낮고 별거 없음
- Zion (8/5): Nice staff. - Hotel is only walkable to the visited places. Staff is understanding and willing to help.
- Verified traveler (8/5): Siisti ja edullinen yöpyminen - Perussiisti ja hiljainen huone ja mukava henkilökunta. Wifi toimi heikosti huoneessa.
- Verified traveler (6/5): 便宜、乾淨、地點佳 - 飯店地點還不錯,華興海鮮樓就在對面,隔壁有24小時營業的便利商店,離市中心大概10-15分鐘步行距離。房間蠻乾淨的不過濕氣和霉味有點重,前後陸續住了3晚,有一晚住在一樓餐廳旁邊,那間隔音很差,晚上過了12點餐廳音樂也是要求飯店人員關掉才關。不過以這價錢算是蠻超值的。
- Jeni (8/5): Good location, friendly staff - Lavender Lodge was a nice place to stay for 2 nights before traveling onwards in Sabah. The location gives easy access to the interesting areas of KK, and the room was comfortable.
The only disappointment was the included breakfast, which consisted of bread, jam, and coffee, and could have been expanded to include a few more options. Overall though, staff were lovely and helpful and we had a pleasant stay!
- Alex (8/5): NIce lodge that suprisingly confortable and clean. - The stay was awesome and the worker here is doing their best to keep the place clean. I really appreciate the stay and would definitely recommend to my friend who wishes to find a comfy place to stay during travel to Sabah KK.
- kuo (6/5): Nice hotel - The main entrance doo looked after 00:00am makes argue with staff.
- Old mam (6/5): - Everthing are good except a younger Filipino staff.
- Wei Chih (8/5): A lodge you can't miss - 這是我第二次住進薰衣草小屋,因為喜歡這裡的人情味,一切就像第一次一樣,親切的櫃檯人員,男女主人總是熱心的提供服務與行程建議,中文就可溝通哦!座落於市區,附近很多餐館,各景點都在20分鐘腳程內,房間與公用浴廁都保持很乾淨,因為無電梯,如住高樓層需費點力搬行李,另外有附早餐(炒麵很可口 ^^),算是CP值高的住所。去神山的mini bus就在轉角的主幹道上,這次一行5人,老闆娘還幫忙叫車到住所接,真是服務周到呢!下次還會想來住~ Highly recommended!
- Verified traveler (8/5): good - everything is good except locker
there is a locker but samll, it didn't fit my bag
i was worry about if somethings were stolen.
- SHUWEI (10/5): 超便宜 - 還不錯,冷氣很冷,打掃和櫃臺阿姨很親切,離熱鬧的地方也近
- Ahmad (6/5): Good location - Good for 1 or 2 nights. Location in the heart of the city, close to bus station.
Apparently the male dorm is only at the 4th floor, so I had to go up all the way up the stairs even though my foot was injured. Would have been nice of them to mention this on their main page.
Room and toilets were mostly clean.
- Verified traveler (8/5): not good.... - they controlled airconditioner time
only turned it on 7pm~9am
u can not stay in the daytime (so hot)
and dorm in 5th floor (no elevator)
- Verified traveler (10/5): 위치가 정말 좋습니다. - 위치가 일단 최상이고 직원들 친절도도 매우 높습니다.
가격대비 가성비 매우 만족한 곳이었습니다.
- Niklas (6/5): Small hotel with a Big heart - Absolut mest prisvärda hotell! kommer bo här nästa gång igen! Personalen var super trevliga!
- Verified traveler (2/5): 그냥 잠만 자는 숙소입니다 - 샤워시설이 최악이었어요
물이 제대로 안나와서 씻기가 너무 불편했고
샤워기 옆 변기에선 왠지 냄새나는 것 같고..
잠자리는 그냥 그랬구요.
리셉셔니스트들은 서양인들에게만 친절합니다.
- HSIAO LING (4/5): - 住的是宿舍型的房型,非常便宜的價位,房間及共用浴室乾淨,但房間太過昏暗燈光要看旅遊資訊就很麻煩
- kim (6/5): night staff - arrived at hotel around 1 am due to the flight..
the staff at the hotel was kind of rude and act sleepy ..
I stayed at single room with attached bathroom. but the room is totally over priced
- Verified traveler (6/5): Lodge zentral im Stadtzentrum. Einfache Ausstattug - Gut für Kurzurlaub und Rucksackreisende ohne hohe Ansprüche. Mehrbettzimmer und einzelne Doppelbettzimmer mit integrierter kleiner Dusche/ Toilette.
- Yan (6/5): 员工态度很棒,位置很好,房间很小,WIFI很差,沐浴露洗发水味道超级难闻 - 总的来说还行,但是如果再去的话不会再选择这里,价格也不算便宜,但是房间很小,基本就是一个床,两个人住大床房非常拥挤,卫生不错,但是被子就薄薄一张小毯子给两个人,多要一张都要5RM,说是洗漱用品有,但是牙膏牙刷都要自备,沐浴露和洗发水一体的味道像烂苹果发酵的酸酸臭臭的,热水也不是怎么热,水压也很小。可能是因为最里面的房间,WiFi基本就是等于没有,要走到客厅才可以,这个WiFi苹果设备还连不上。房间也没有图片说的那么敞亮,就有一个小窗,感觉就是一个地下室。
- Verified traveler (8/5): 下次還會想要入住 - 房間還算舒適,但雙人房浴室的水量很小,覺得可惜
- cues (8/5): Simple Stay For People on the Move - Simple place with good location
- Verified traveler (6/5): - The staffs are friendly and the double bed room is clean but small without windows. The breakfast is toasts and fruit with coffee/tea but every day is the same. The place is well situated in the city center.
- non (8/5): 清潔でした - 小学生二人を含む家族4人旅行で利用しました。
簡素ですが、きれいに掃除されていて快適に過ごすことができました。
サピ島への割引チケットをもらい、一人あたり10Rお得でした。
- Verified traveler (8/5): コスパ=ラベンダーロッジ - コスパ最強。ステップインロッジにも宿泊したが、ラベンダーに軍配。オーナーのおばちゃんは、英語と中国語を操る。ホテル営業だけでなく、ツアー手配まで完璧な仕事ぶり。スタッフも勤勉かつ、親切。ロビーのビールはどこよりも安く飲める。これ一番大事。
- WONSUK (8/5): 전반적으로 만족스러은 가성비 최고의 게스트하우스 - 가격대비 청결도나 시설에서 만족하는 수준입니다.
한국 내 게스트하우스와 비슷할것으로 기대하고 갔는데,
전체적인 시스템은 모텔과 비슷했고
(숙박객과 친해질 수 있는 시스템은 아님)
청결도는 유사한 수준으로 만족스러웠습니다.
그 외 위치는 시내 중심가이고 직원도 친절하여 불편함이 없었습니다.
다만, 계단이 높아 윗층은 조금 불편하고
아침식사의 질은 큰 기대를 안하시는게 좋습니다.
(이 가격에 아침식사를 제공해주는 것도 다행이죠)
- FONG WEE (8/5): my fav lodge - staff is very friendly, room & toilet are clean.
good location, easy access.
simple breakfast provided - bread, fruits & coffee or tea.
my favourite lodge in KK :)
highly recommended!
- WAI HAN (8/5): - 老板娘好好人呀!會幫手建議行程!地理位置不錯,大部分地方步行便可到達
- Edward (8/5): Helpful management - 2 night stay Daniel was very helpful arranging our tours and answering our questions.
- SIO MAN (6/5): 十分不錯的市中心平價小酒店 - 房間乾淨企理,店員熱心助人,位於市中心,賺物逛街吃飯也十分方便,十分好;又可以有機會認識世界各地的自由行客人。不過房間設備過於簡單,沒有雪櫃,電視,電話,電吹風,連喝水的杯子也沒有.....不過如果以這價錢還包早餐,我覺得可以接受。
- Jessica (6/5): 客服友善,設施一般 - 任何時候客服都保持笑容,我下樓時一人有三件行李,客服見到我主動拿了兩件下樓梯。住了三晚附私人浴室的房間,但有兩晚都在洗澡時跳電掣,頗狼狽,幸好公共浴室就在房外隔壁。
- david (10/5): Caring staff - large room good aircon
free toiletries
tour office downstairs very helpfull
and lady could not be nicer.
Nora on reception is so warm and will allways have a chat.
In good area 5 minutes from waterfront
large seaxfood court across the road and laundry.

- MinGu (8/5): 깨끗함 - 깨끗했어요
- ting (8/5): 入住 - 地理位置不错!老板娘不错!
- Yin (6/5): Nice Staffs and close to the food center - 1. The shower had not enough water for us to enjoy the shower.
2. We requested 2 rooms with 2 single beds with private bathroom, but it became 1 double bed with private & 2 single beds with share bathroom.
3. Staffs are helpful!
4. Close to the food center.
- Stella (8/5): 不错的小旅店,值得一住,有机会再来一游。 - 位置不错,食店在周围很方便,老板娘同员工非常好,帮忙安排景点,介绍非常好吃的食物,老板娘是全能的,,,,中,英,粤通通通,,,,,
- Queenie (8/5): 整潔,方便,有wifi,有早餐,OK! - 整潔,方便。尾房wifi接收不是很好,但可以接受。4人房只有一個插頭,十分不方便,需要額外自行買拖板。
