Staff are super nice and helpful, good English. Location on the water front in centre of town. Hostel help you plan anything. They gave us a number to book transport to the orangutan rehab centre etc. We booked a 3D2N kinabatangan tour and they let us leave our luggage at the hostel. For service and location the are great. Bed was actually comfy and pillow was a memory foam one so was alright.

The location is great. Right in the middle of all the action (although the city is weirdly spread and doesn't have just one center). It's reasonably clean (as far as hostels go) There were enough bathrooms & toilets, so we didn't have to wait our turn (although the hostel didn't feel at its capacity and it was the low season). The simple breakfast is actually nice. You might end up having a second breakfast, but it's a good start of the day.

The building is large so it's easy to find your comfortable spot. The breeze from the ocean is so pleasant that I ended up staying for a few more days.

Had a pleasant 4-day stay. Location is perfect, all you need is next to hostel. Staff ladies are very nice and helpful. And the rooftop terrace is the best place to relax!
