Water heater not functioning
Sticky floor
No hose pipe or pile
Room door only have 1 lock, no additional lock. Quite easy for other people to break into the room
Sinky outside toilet
Overall 2/10
With price of rm100+++ per night should get better service and accommodation.

Sound proofing bad ,
Power trip two times in a night ,
Curfew to be back by 12midnight else auto gate will be locked is quite restricting . Wanted to eat and drink till late night as its a holiday place but restricted by curfew is not so suitable for us .
Bed was clean but sink area outside bathroom and toilet doesn't look that clean and nice

Lazy and unfriendly staffs !”
We stayed at Wanderer Inn for 4D3N. The staffs NEVER do housekeeping our room. Breakfast just have fried noodles and fried rice. The worst thing ever is yourself need to clean up the plate after you having breakfast. They said got provided hair dryer but not allowed brought to your room. They just provided toilet paper only inside the room. Really NOT RECOMMEND !!!

Clean, efficient and central location”
Really enjoyed my stay here. The Inn/hostel/hotel, was clean with a big comfortable communal area. The staff were really helpful. They were happy to help with an extra bed for my children, organising day trips and taxi's to the airport. It felt really comfortable and friendly here, for a family too (we had a private room with an attached bathroom), but the shared dormitory area looked really nice too, with lots of room for bags etc.

ok stay ”
Stay only one night before live on board diving. Facilities are very simple but clean. Staffs are quite nice.
I stayed in a private room, it doesn't have window. The dometry does have. Shower water is not very big as I was prepared for this but acceptable. No tower or shampoo so be sure bring your own. Internet is slow in the room so suggest to buy SIM card at the airport beforehand.
Breakfast is very simple but the dinning area (public space) is bright and cosy.

Nice place to crash and see Semporna or recover from diving”
This is a nice hostel. Great value and location. Some of the staff had a rough exterior, but when I smiled and asked questions, everyone became friendly and helpful. I love the beds with a curtain for privacy and the private outlets inside. The breakfast isn't bad, too.
The one criticism that I have is that there is no soap by the bathroom sinks. I asked to use some and it was begrudgingly retrieved for me and then put away again.

Hotel is located near a fish market so expect a really strong smell. There were also children who swarmed my friend and I, harassing us for money while we were checking out so the area doesn't really feel safe. The staff were friendly. The breakfast was on the salty side. Room was clean but feels really cramped.

Not recommend ”
1. They gave us a room different from what it shown. The room heading to a street instead of sea, where is very noisy even at midnight.
2. Water flow out continually at the washroom which make a lot of noise. But they only fix that after two nights because of the holiday. That means I have to bear the noise during two whole nights.
3. They don’t tidy the room during your stay. You could find many ants everywhere.
Pls don’t stay here!
