Rose Guesthouse

Cheap and cheerful

What we say:

This simple guesthouse in the city centre is run by the charming Rose. The guesthouse benefits from her touch with its pastel painted walls and complimentary coffee and tea set out in the kitchen all day. The handful of rooms and dorm are simply furnished and there are share bathrooms, but everything is kept spotlessly clean. Rose and the staff go to great lengths to make guests feel welcome and often extend invitations to Malay celebrations. Rates include WiFi and a breakfast of toast and jam. The travel agency on the ground floor organises budget trips to Kinabatangan River and Turtle Island.
