History
Opened 30 January 2022, about 115 rooms. Seshan Design turned a downtown office into the hotel; co-founders Alan Wong, Aaron Chin, and Jennifer Wang planned interlocking L-shaped rooms when a standard grid would not fit. Name means home in Bajau. It belongs to Design Hotels, and Marriott Bonvoy can be earned through that partnership.
