We stayed here for about a week in March. We stayed in 4 different rooms during our stay, so I feel like I know the place pretty well! The private air con double rooms are by the far the nicest (70Rm) but do feel a bit small once you have two people and two big back packs in there. The... More

Quite satisfied with number of bathrooms they provide for guests that help reduce toilet rush hour stress in the morning and the evening. Location is great, not too near and too noisy like ones on Gaya Street. More

We stayed at Borneo backpackers for four nights, it was the first shared room we had stayed in on our travels. It was fine, the rooms were very clean, the staff were friendly and reasonably helpful and there was free internet all day. it was in a good location, easy to get places and you can book tours through them...

The bathrooms were clean and modern. The staff were always friendly and went out of their way to help. Thought it was a pretty good deal and... More

The place is in strategic area with most of the city's attraction nearby. The staffs are very friendly and helpful. Very nice! I really recommend this place to... More

Borneo Backpackers is conveniently located in downtown KK, walking distance from restaurants, the markets, and long distance bus station to Mt. Kinabalu. Its filled with an international crowd (including Malaysians:), mostly researching and preparing forms for their hike up Mt. Kinabalu or limping around after. The dorms (where we stayed) and bathrooms were super clean, the common area is filled... More

I stayed one night here. I think it is ok if you are traveling solo and trying to save some money. The shared bathroom is small and not very private. Breakfast was supposed to be included but was not available when I was there (I never did figure out why). The wifi works, though just barely. The single rooms are... More
