乾淨，地理位置好

房間很大也很乾淨，地點就在shopping mall對面，離超市、雜貨店跟很多有名食店都很近，入口小、要上樓梯，不建議帶大件或重行李的旅客，我們住的201號房正對著工地，工地施工到晚上12點比較吵，熱水要先開著水喉幾分鐘放水才有，但水壓和熱度是可以的，冷氣有點而滴水，門卡鎖也用不了要麻煩櫃臺人員開門，都是一些小問題，總體來說也算不錯。

새벽도착 하루만 묵었어요

첫날 도착해서 하룻밤 지냈는데 그랩 불러서 갔는데도 운전기사님이 못찾으셔서 당황했어요 ㅋㅋ 일층에 유리문 있고 이층이 호텔이어서 그 유리문을 잘 찾아야해요. 호텔보단.. 여관이나 모텔느낌이에요 ㅋㅋ 창문없지만 하룻밤이니까요뭐 제셀톤 포인트랑 가까워서 선택한거였는데 가까워서 좋았어요 올드타운화이트커피랑도 꽤 가깝고 가는길에 슈퍼들도 있더라구요 딱! 새벽도착 하룻밤 자는것만 추천이요

Gute Unterkunft mit kleinen Einschränkungen

Das Little Gaya ist ein schönes kleines Hotel in sehr guter Lage. Es sind viele Restaurants und Shopping-Malls in der nahen Umgebung. Wir hatten eines der größeren Zimmer. Dieses war gut und schön ausgestattet. Das Bett war sehr bequem. Das Zimmer war auch sehr sauber, abgesehen von unter dem Bett, wo noch Spuren des Vormieters zu sehen waren. Als Minuspunkt ist zu erwähnen, dass das Bad im Zimmer integriert ist und es keine Badtüre gibt, die man zu machen kann. Unser Zimmer war zur Hauptstraße aus. Diese hat man auch wahrgenommen. Außerdem hat das Internet auch sehr schlecht funktioniert. Alles in allem eine schöne Unterkunft mit kleinen Einschränkungen.

전반적으로 괜찮습니다.

호텔 위치 아주 좋습니다. 주변에 슈퍼마켓이나 음식점 굉장히 가까워요. 단점은 호텔 방음이 잘 안됩니다. 그리고 창문없는 방은 아침에 너무 깜깜해요. 화장실이 여닫이 유리문이라 좀 당황스러웠어요. 잠금장치가 없습니다. 와이파이도 잘 안터져서 그냥 유심 데이터 썼어요.

Little Gaya Hotel is great for couples

Little Gaya Hotel is well located near many eateries, Jesselton, the airport and other bus station and many shopping malls. The staff are generally very helpful and the rooms with windows are large and well fitted for a mid range hotel. There are only about14 rooms so they are regularly fully booked. Would be happy to stay here again.

The deluxe room with window we stayed for 4nights is spacious. Walking distance to the jesselton pier is gd for us as we head to the islands everyday. There is 2 supermarkets nearby with sliced fruit selling. The location is convenient. It was a nice experience.
