We hunted high and low for accommodation in KK and this was the best of a bad bunch. Apart from the places that are quite far out (like Masadas and the Beach places) the standard in KK really isn't very high at these prices. We got frustrated with other people on tripadvisor saying you could get better elsewhere, as they... More

I stayed here after a trip to Sepilok as the NBC next door was full. the room was OK but there was no-where really to put my things. I had a private shower leaked on the floor but it worked OK and there was liquid soap in a dispenser. The shared shoewers are next to the kitchen and if you... More

We stayed here for two nights, and I quite liked it. We stayed in the dorm which had 5 bunk beds (10 beds) in a room. It was a bit cramped but there was a/c and everyone was very helpful and accomodating. There is a small but functional hot water shower, and there is a basic breakfast of toast, jams,... More

Stayed for 3 days in KK, the hotel was clean, rooms big enough for relatively low price. The location is very good with local restaurants just at the doors, with 5 minutes walk to the seafood market on the sea boulevard. The reception was keen to book without any costs bus tickets. Quite resonable choice for backpackers and economy tourist,... More

We stayed here on the advice of the company we were diving with, and all I can say is I hope they got commission. The location is good, but the staff are terrible. One of them couldn't seem to communicate or understand any queries, such as trying to book an additional room for some friends, a task we only achieved... More

Well located lodge in heart of Kota Kinabalu. We had room with private bathroom upstairs from the office. Double bed was comfy, sheets and towels clean, hot water all day, wi-fi working well, breakfast included. For our needs to have good night sleep we found this lodge to be the best value in town. We stayed there for five nights... More

borneo gaya lodge is a very basic but OK place with absolutely-no-frills-character. had a private room upstairs, which was clean upon my arrival. forget about the WiFi upstairs, it just doesn't work there -- go to the 'lounge area', there the connection tends to be more stable. in addition to the area (jalan gaya), i liked the sincereness of the...

Good: - I like the idea of the co-owner doing the fetching at the airport. I can call him any time I want and be picked at the airport. It makes me trust the place. - I negotiated everything via email. They reply quickly. Website is updated. - near the airport just like any place in KK. about 15 minutes.... More
