ROOMS - Tawau, Sabah

-

Rooms Hotel is located in Kubota Square, easily accessible to eating places and Tawau Airport is just 30 minutes drive (28km) from the hotel. We decided to stay here for 2 nights after our Pom Pom - Mataking Island trip. Basically it's just a shoplot turn into a hotel. There's only 3 floors and hotel lift is small, which probably can fit 4 person without luggage. Lift requires a room card in order to access guest room floor.

We stayed in a deluxe twin room since their superior queen and superior king room are all fully occupied. Our room comes with two single beds, wall mounted fuzzy TV with limited Astro channels, working desk, wall mounted hair dryer, free WiFi (access for 2 devices only), disposable slippers, coffee or tea making facilities, 2 complimentary bottles of drinking water, self controlled air conditioning and toiletries.

Room looks modern and stylish but slightly small. Beds and pillows are comfy. However, they only provide one pillow each and we requested additional two pillows from them. Water pressure in the shower is very good but they set a maximum hot water temperature for shower. It's a good thing to prevent scalds during bath time. However, the water is just not hot enough for me. There's only 2 hooks for hanging in the bathroom and no towel bar. Apart from that, shower area has a partial screen but not fully enclosed from the toilet area causing water to splash everywhere. Basically, it's a basic hotel with no in-room safe, mini fridge and facilities.

Guangzhou/Shenzhen - Day 4/Day 1 (Luohu Commercial City - Dongmen Pedestrian Street - Sun Plaza)

Image
We had planned to check out of the hotel at 12pm and board a train to Dongguan at 1pm to meet with one of Ben's potential supplier. However, the plan was cancelled as the supplier was unable to make it and Ben only notified us after we checked out of the hotel at 12pm. In the end, we did nothing for a half day in Guangzhou and missed the opportunity to see his supplier in Dongguan. Our initial plan was to meet with his supplier in Dongguan and then take the train to Shenzhen. Since the plan didn't work out, we purchased a last-minute ticket from  Guangzhou East Railway Station to Shenzhen Station (Price - RM 65.74 per person for first-class seat). We had our lunch together with Ben at  Chuangshan Restaurant, which is located opposite  Guangzhou East Railway Station . I had goose with roasted pork, while my partner had chicken with BBQ pork. Roasted pork is tasty and goose is flavourful but has rubbery skin. Ben's friend joined us for lunch as well. However, we have to lea...
