房間寬敞,乾淨,浴巾床上用品都很舒適,前台有問題及時解決,感謝攜程管家松嵩,因為之前訂的酒店由於停電不得已換到了這裏,雖説出行都需要打車,但管家及時聯繫,提供方案,算是為我們的旅行帶來了很好的保障,回到房間心情都是非常舒適的,感謝。

First of all, the building is shabby and looks a bit like a motel. We went on a family trip, but the road leading to the room was so shabby and there were no convenience stores around, so my mom said it felt like she was in a motel… What a relief! When I opened the door, both my parents and I were so happy that we had reserved a clean and large room. Haha. But if I come back to Kota, I won’t stay there again. The soundproofing was so bad that the thumping noise from upstairs was so stressful that I woke up so many times in the early morning; it was so frustrating. It was so frustrating.

Stayed for 3 nights. The room was very big compared to downtown Kota Kinabalu. There was a rooftop swimming pool where you could watch the planes landing up close. The view was nice. It's not expensive to go downtown by car. The front desk does not speak Chinese, so English communication is required. One complaint I want to make is that when we checked in, the front desk asked us to clean the room the next day, but it was not until the third day when I asked them several times that they came to help clean. This is very unfavorable. We chose this place because it needed cleaning! If this is the case, it is better to rent a homestay suite in the same building, where you can enjoy the same facilities but at a much cheaper price.

We chose to stay at Aru Suites based on a friend's review, overall we liked everything very much, very nice reception staff, always ready to help, always kind and smiling, will be happy to tell and answer all questions at any time of the day. We had a late check-in at 2 am, we contacted the hotel in advance and agreed, the employee was there at that time, gave us the keys and told us everything, thank you very much for that! The location is much more convenient than in the noisy city center, by taxi to any point of KK 7-15 minutes, it is not expensive, but arriving at Aru after a busy day in a noisy city filled with cars and people, you can relax and enjoy a calm measured life, the views from the balcony are generally super!! Take a room with a sea view, you will not regret it, the sunsets will forever be remembered in my memory 💔 The pool on the roof is excellent, open from 8 am to 8 pm, super views! Cons: 1. There is no possibility to smoke on the balcony in the room, I understand that this is done for the comfort of other guests, but something could have been thought up, because constantly going down from the 12th to the 1st floor is not very convenient. 2. They give out 2 key cards, one for the elevator, and the second for the room, it is not very convenient to carry them with you all the time, they could have been combined or made a waterproof bracelet. 3. Small beds in length, my husband and I are 1.8 meters tall, and the beds are 1.7 meters at most, our legs hang down, but we got the hang of it 😁 In general, the hotel is wonderful, you can even ignore the small minuses, we had a great vacation, huge thanks to the hotel staff for their attentiveness and I will forget ❤️🙏🏻

I regret booking a hotel with fewer nights. I should have booked two more days and not changed hotels on the second day. 😳The room is very spacious with a large balcony. The infinity pool on the roof is the cleanest I have ever seen in Kota Kinabalu. It is super clear and great for taking photos. There are restaurants downstairs and supermarkets a few hundred meters away. Although it is close to the airport, it will not be affected by the plane at all. There is a school next to it. It is so interesting to watch them in class upstairs. Hahahaha😂The check-in was very fast and the experience was excellent overall
