No elevator! No elevator! No elevator! Please make sure you're okay with stairs before booking to avoid any misunderstanding; the location is excellent—right in the heart of Semporna town, with convenience stores and food stalls just downstairs; there's a Chinese restaurant on the 1st floor (authentic Chinese cuisine by a Chinese chef, not local flavor); a rooftop shared kitchen on the 4th floor is coming soon—perfect for cooking, gatherings, or stargazing; it’s about a 10-minute walk to the jetty, so island hopping and early boat tours are easy to catch; since it’s in the city center, it can be lively—we provide free earplugs to help you sleep well; nearby mosque prayers start around 4:30 AM daily, which is part of Malaysia’s cultural and religious diversity—thank you for your understanding and respect.

"Spent 2 nights here. The rooms were clean and tidy, price was affordable, and the customer service was excellent. The noise that the owner mentioned was not a problem as I did not hear any and had a good night rest. It is a 5-10 minute walk to the jetty. Definitely enjoyed my stay here and would recommend those coming to Semporna to have a stay here. 在这里住了两晚。房间干净整洁,价钱公道,前台服务很好。店主所说的噪音不是问题,我没被噪音吵醒。走路到码头需要5-10分钟。非常推荐来仙本那旅游的选择这里作为你们的住宿。"

"Booking the airport pick-up was convenient; it dropped us right at the hotel entrance. Check-in required a 50 MYR cash deposit. The hygiene was acceptable, and it wasn't expensive for a one-night stay, offering good value for money. It's about a 10-minute walk from the pier. However, there were a lot of dogs in the surrounding area, and they were very noisy late at night, constantly barking. There were even dogs running around on the roof (a flat roof), which made it hard to sleep. The staff were very friendly. Overall, it's a hotel with good value for money."

"The location is pretty good, close to the pier, with plenty of restaurants, supermarkets, and convenience stores nearby. The town itself is relatively underdeveloped; the overall environment and roads are not in good condition. It's over an hour's drive from Tawau Airport."

With a stay at Q3 INN, you'll be all set to unwind after a day of travel.

"We used the Grap app for taxis in Semporna because Q3 INN HOTEL wasn't listed on the Grap map yet since it only opened last October. So, you could choose Grace Hotel or BaWang ChaJi, as they're only about 20 meters away – very close. The hotel offers free instant noodles, snacks, and drinks. There's a coffee machine providing free coffee and hot water. We're health-conscious, so we brought our own water bottles to use the hot water provided. The hotel is very close to the Longmen Guesthouse pier, a 7-8 minute walk. You can see the pier from your room balcony. The hotel facilities are all new, but there's no renovation smell, which is great. The owner is very dedicated to running the business. Thumbs up! 👍 Staying here... There's a seafood restaurant downstairs. My friend and I ate there for several nights in a row. Yes, it's seafood! Next door is a place selling black thorn durian, which is also incredibly delicious and authentic. On the day we left, I left my water bottle at the hotel, and the owner happened to be flying back to Guangzhou that evening at 7:00 PM. They even delivered my water bottle to the airport! I was so touched. Even after I went through security and was at the check-in counter, the owner contacted security staff to open the glass door and hand me my little blue collapsible water bottle. Super NICE ❤️ My friend and I stayed for three nights. On our last night, we went to the bar downstairs at the hotel 🍷 and listened to locals sing Mandarin songs. It was quite nice. The only downsides might be that the toothbrushes were a bit soft, the air conditioner would be better with a wind shield, and the rooms near the road could have better soundproofing. Also, having more clothes hangers would be very convenient, as we went out to sea every day and needed to dry clothes. Laundry detergent was also a concern; I brought a small bottle, but it ran out, and they only had laundry powder. In short: My friend said this place is the best value for money. We originally planned to stay in a water villa on Mataking Island, but we ended up staying at this hotel by chance. It was great. Highly recommended 😎 👍👍"

"So glad I chose Alice Home! The Beijing boss is incredibly hospitable, and our remote communication was always pleasant and easy. He's super efficient! Their place was the most spacious and comfortable I found in Semporna for the same price point, and my kid even got to watch TV. The location is super convenient, close to the center and the jetty, and there are two highly-rated 4.8 Chinese and Western restaurants right outside. Plus, it's a rare quiet spot, and the entrance is well-lit. The island-hopping tour team recommended by the boss was also fantastic; they had a dedicated person accompanying my 5-year-old in the water, which made my child incredibly happy and me feel completely at ease. Next time I come, I'll definitely book in advance and only stay here! 🎉🏠"

I arrived in Tawau at 3 PM, but the airport didn't allow overnight stays, so I had to head to Semporna three hours earlier. Coincidentally, the front desk staff that day didn't speak Chinese or English, so we communicated using a translation app. It went smoothly; they allowed us to rest in the lobby and use the public restrooms. They were really kind and friendly throughout. After daybreak, we left our luggage there and went island hopping. We checked in upon our return in the evening. The cleanliness was good, and I didn't find any mosquitoes. My only minor regret was not having a place to hang my washed clothes, but thankfully, summer clothes dry quickly. The location is great, with plenty of food and drink options downstairs, including restaurants and supermarkets. Overall, for the price, I was very satisfied. If I go back, I'd definitely consider staying here again. I forgot to take photos of the hotel, so I'll just use my island hopping pictures instead.

I stayed at this hotel last night and was pleasantly surprised. Although the bathroom is shared, it was very clean and well-maintained. The room itself was also clean and comfortable, with a cold air-conditioner that made the stay even more pleasant. For the price, it’s definitely worth it. A great option for budget travelers looking for a clean and comfortable place to stay.

Pros: Conveniently located near the island-hopping pier, just a 10-minute walk away. They can also arrange affordable shared transfers to the airport. Cons: The facilities are very basic, but I suppose you get what you pay for. Breakfast was also extremely simple, offering only a few items: plain congee, bread, fried noodles or eggs, and rather cheap sausages. There were no fresh vegetables or fruit available at all.
