The only slight inconvenience was the stair access, but it didn’t bother me much

My stay at A Residence was absolutely enjoyable. The room was warm, stylish, and thoughtfully arranged with everything you might need for a comfortable night. I loved the small gestures — the air conditioner was already running when we arrived, and they provided useful extras like a powerbank, space to store our luggage, several bottles of drinking water, and extra toiletries. The service was truly commendable. Shortly after check-in, the host sent a message to ask if everything was satisfactory — a rare courtesy that really stood out. The room came with excellent features, including efficient air conditioning, a strong shower, a spotless bathroom, a secure drawer, and a fridge. The location is very convenient for moving around Kota Kinabalu. One thing to note is that there’s no lift, so you’ll need to use the stairs to reach your room. It wasn’t a major issue, just something to keep in mind. There was also a bit of noise from a nearby pub on the first night, but they had already provided earplugs, which was a thoughtful touch. Overall, a clean, cozy, and well-managed place to stay. I’d definitely recommend it to anyone visiting KK.

Staircases to get to the room. Not suitable for elderly. It is good that they have a separate shower and toilet, but the size of both for us are a bit small.

Comfortable stay, clean room, and very attentive team. This hotel went above and beyond to meet the guests'needs. Eateries and shops are close by. Walkable to the seafood shop and Filipino market

No lift at the hotel, no reception or waiting area. You will have to carry your own luggage to second floor.

The rooms are small but very good, and very beautifully decorated like 5 star hotel rooms, with modern European design.

Maybe, it's at 2nd floor and might be difficult if you are bringing someone who have bad knees

I like the cleanliness and how easy it is to check in and check out. All the staffs are also fast to help. The guidance through WhatsApp since booking until check out really makes me happy and overall make the experience better and easier for me. Thank you !

It is a bit unclear on booking.com which room is which, but I imagine they are all great! Location means there are 2 flights of stairs (no elevator) and the street / church can be heard in the rooms on weekend. But it wasn't *too* loud, just audible, and the provision of ear plugs meant it did not bother us. :)

Lovely small boutique hotel-style residence. They have 6 rooms in total, each newly renovated, clean, modern, and full of high-quality amenities (toiletries, slippers, tea etc.). Comfy bed and large rain-shower. Staff were wonderful and helpful: we booked last minute and they were able to help us immediately! Location close to good seafood restaurants and quite central.

The only thing that makes this place a bit uncomfortable is the fact that they don’t have the elevator to get upstairs which could be a problem if you’re travelling with heavy luggage.

I really loved the location and the room. It was very clean and everything worked perfectly. The staff is very responsive and helpful from the moment of the booking until checkout. They let us leave our luggage in the morning before checking in at 3pm. The area is full of cafe, restaurants, small shops and massage places.

The location is a bit turn off as you have to go through food stalls, with dodgy vibe. But the room is exceptional that it compensates this issue. Another thing is it is on the second floor which is quite a hustle, have to consider for people who is disabled or wheelchair bound. Luggages are not a problem as the staff will assist.

Super posh and clean! Staff is there to assist 24/7 Chat is very reponsive and meet your needs! Dont be fooled by the location and the groundfloor
