Space Capsule Hotel in Kota Kinabalu

It’s clean and affords you the privacy you need at a budget, this space capsule hotel in Kota Kinabalu is highly recommended. I have to confess. I don’t like staying in hostels. I’m not just comfortable sleeping in a dorm room with complete strangers. That’s why, I always go for a hotel room. But if budget or time is scarce, then I will go for a capsule hotel.

hotels

I love staycations! And recently, I had an opportunity to stay at the Bayfront Hotel Cebu located at the North Reclamation just near SM City Cebu. I have been eyeing this hotel for quite some time already as I often pass by every time I’m in the area and whenever I am in Cebu. Much more when I got back home during the pandemic and traveling to and fro to this area as the MyBus terminal (and now, the Cebu North Bus Terminal) is directly…Continue Reading “5 reasons why I loved my stay at Bayfront Hotel Cebu” →
