"Ok to stay but now knowing how hot it is in the middle of the day, I would prefer a hotel with a swimming pool. It was alright for the price, located within walking distance to plenty of restaurants and handy location for getting to Sepilok and other places outside city centre by grab car."

"We enjoyed our stay at Paganakan Dii. The room was basic but comfy and the air conditioner and fan were enough to keep it cool at night. The restaurant was basic but fine and the staff were helpful and able to help book tours and transport. The place was quiet, peaceful and had great jungle views. ..."
