Great simple no-fuss hotel”
Great location at the edge of the CBD so it’s not noisy and still within walking distances to most attraction. Nice fruit shop and supermarket within the same block. Room (deluxe king) was simple, spacious and clean. Staff were helpful and accomodated our needs for luggage storage. A warning for those with mobility issues as the hotel, which is on the second floor of shophouses, is only accessible via a flight of stairs.

Good Location, Disappointing Staff”
I honestly didn't expect much from a windowless room. Just booked a few nights to go diving nearby at Sunny Reef's. In the first night, I thought one of the other guests was loudly playing some ego-shooter game, so I tried to bear it, up to 3:00 AM... The next day I realized it was the staff playing on their cellphones. After I asked them to turn down the volume, it was no problem anymore, but they seem completely wasted and dont't even try to look you in the eyes or smile. The room however was clean, including the shower. Roomservice was good and check-in and check-out were flawless and quick.
Expect them to ask you for tourism tax payment on arrival.

Spacious clean comfortable room - family friendly indeed”
Spacious clean comfortable room - family friendly especially those who have toddlers or young kids. Shower room and toilet is spacious, very clean and value for money. There is a common room where you can use the icebox and microwave. However, the downside is the charge for extra bed is quite expensive that costs you RM65 per night. So we had to buy cheap bedding for our children. Also, there is no lift as it is located on the first floor and it is easy to hear noises outside the room but luckily there wasn't so much noises during our stay. Overall, we enjoyed our stay! Thank you Little Gaya!

There is one thing that I don't like is the sound from the outside is too noise for me. For example, I can hear the sound of somebody open and close his/her room. I also hear someone do a calling in a room that next to my room. The voice is very loud. But the location of this hotel are the nearest with the Suria Sabah. It is just infront of the hotel. Overall, I love the services, the staff there are very helpful and kind. I would recommend to those who are looking for some place to travel and get rest for a few days.

LOCATION, PRICE, COMFORTABLE ROOM
price is reasonable and its quite near to shopping mall. there is mart beside it.
but you can hear the guest closing and opening the door sound and the hotel is at the 1st floor meaning you have to carry your luggage all the way to the 1st floor through staircase. there is no lift available. overall is ok

Clean room, perfect to use as a base for exploring the city”
We booked this hotel as it is very close to Jessleton pier and we planned to take boat trips over to the islands.
The hotel was very clean and staff were friendly. The room was cosy but was big enough to use as a base for exploring. This hotel is slightly further from the waterfront area however we were still able to walk (or jump in a cheap taxi) to most parts of the city.
I would definitely recommend Little Gaya to those looking for somewhere to rest after a long day exploring.

Staff was friendly. Try their best to attend to my request. Place is clean and well maintain.
However, this review is only for this one night stay. When I re-check in to another room, the room was not clean, sticky stain on floor and food stain on duvet. Staff is still attentive n friendly to change another room but this room do not look new like the first room. Probably this room is more often used and with a bad chair(not yet broken). Is a nice hotel, so hopefully the management will keep all room well maintain and btw, the room size vary for same room type n price (can't confirm, did not measure with tools)

Near to Jesselton Point,cleanliness can be improved”
Location was superb, 15 mins away from airport and near to Jesselton Point jetty. Sheets and toilet could be cleaner - saw some light stains on the bedsheet and pillow. And the shower in my room constantly didn’t have hot water, had to ask the staffs to come in to fix it for around 3 times throughout my stay. Staffs were nice and friendly. Hot water and microwave provided at the reception. Good for a short stay if you wanna live near the jetty and visit TARP.
