The place is well-equipped with everything a guest could need—boiled drinking water, a water heater, cooking utensils, and all the essentials.

Wonderful and peaceful accommodation set in a lovely location facing the great mountain itself. The veranda is a perfect spot to gape in awe at Mount Kinabalu and is quite literally on your doorstep.
