I had great time during my trip, easy check in and out, walking distance to most places
Verified review

10/10 Exceptional

The room was spotlessly clean and well maintained. There was even a nice little common hallway with extra toiletries and coffee/tea packets. The host provided a waterproof beach pouch which was exactly what I needed that day. The location is unbeatable. It's literally upstairs from the most amazing grilled seafood night market. 10/10. I will definitely book here again

I really enjoyed my stay here; The room and staff itself were amazing and also upgraded my room and catered to all my needs:) The only thing is that it's a bit further from the main area so you have to do a bit more walking but overall really nice

I was worried because the residence doesn’t have a reception, but communication was excellent, and the staff are nearby to respond quickly. The staff are very friendly, and the room is extremely clean and tidy. There are many places to visit nearby, so the location is great. It was the best accommodation.

Great place to stay

This is a great place to stay alone. People in Kota Kinabalu, Malaysia are so friendly. Especially the hosts are really nice. This is a place I want to stay again next time I go. The location is great so you can walk to most places. I recommend taking Grab. Because the weather is very hot Stayed 4 nights alone It's a really nice accommodation See you again AC Residence

6/10 Good

You get what you pay for

Very friendly staff and very clean room. No escaping the fact that the location is not very nice and views are of industrial sites. No lift, loud AC and room smelled like petrol.
Verified review

8/10 Very good

Room renovated to a very high standard.

Our room was spacious and very comfortable. The recent renovation works have been completed to a high standard, using high spec fixtures and fittings. Very good location for local amenities, restuarants, shopping malls, etc. The only downside is being located on the 2nd storey, as we had several suitcases. However, the owner was very helpful in carrying the cases up the stairs.
Verified review

10/10 Exceptional

My boyfriend and I stayed at AC Residence first one night when arriving to Kota Kinabalu and then one more night when returning to Kota Kinabalu after some days in Sandakan. The rooms have great standard and with all amenities you can need. They’ve really thought about what you need when traveling. The staff are super helpful with quick response time over WhatsApp. They stored our luggage during our trip to Sandakan and it stood waiting for us in the room when we checked in again - so appreciated! Highly recommended and VERY affordable living in Kota Kinabalu
Verified review

10/10 Exceptional

Advantages: This was a great experience, the room was comfortable, the TV service and electric curtains were excellent. Another advantage is the excellent location, quiet and convenient. Suggestions: It would be nice to have a shelf in the bathroom. Additionally, during rainy days, there were many ants that crawled into the wall joints of the air conditioner and got stuck in the cracks of the tiles, could there be an ant nest here?
Verified review

8/10 Very good

The mattresses were too soft. The rooms are on the 3rd storey and there's no lift. But on the other hand, staff are friendly and responsive, the rooms are clean and there are many eateries nearby and it's walkable to the night market and to a shopping mall.

Clean room but no lift

Pros Central location Responsive staff regardless the time Very clean room Cons I was staying at top floor. There's no lift. Window cannot be opened We could not open the blind because people on street can see straight through -this can be sorted with frosted film
