Great value, cozy room, central location, and super friendly staff.

The breakfast variety could be improved for a better experience.

Escape Backpackers KK offered exceptional hospitality with insightful local tips and a warm, family-like atmosphere. the comfortable accommodations, delicious varied breakfasts, and attentive staff made for a pleasant and convenient stay.

Nothing negative to say

Great Vegan Breakfast Experience

The staff went above and beyond to accommodate our dietary preferences, making us feel truly valued as guests. the dorm room was a bit cramped, and the bathroom could have been more sanitary.

My recent stay at a cozy backpackers' hostel was amazing! the friendly staff made me feel at home. the common area was even better than in the photos. I would DEFINITELY choose this place again! .

The staff were extremely friendly and accommodating, creating a warm and welcoming atmosphere for us to enjoy. the facilities were clean and well-maintained, and the location was convenient for exploring Kota Kinabalu's attractions. the variety in breakfast options each day was a pleasant surprise, catering to different tastes and preferences.

My wife says that more child-friendly activities would enhance the family experience.

A buffet breakfast with a variety of options will tempt your taste buds every morning.

Noisy, chatty locals sometimes disrupting.

The hostel felt like a cozy home near Centre Point with a comfortable bed, aircon, and free washing machine use. uncertain residents, noisy street, bed bugs, wet toilets, and slippery mattresses were downsides. The owner was friendly, breakfast diverse, and separate showers a plus. a decent place in KK with good value for Borneo.

The staff are top-notch, always ready to lend a hand with a smile; they really make you feel at home. Appreciated the chilled-out vibes and the chance to relax in the cozy TV room after a long day of exploring. the only downside was the wet toilets, a bit of a bummer, but didn't put a damper on the awesome time I had there! 🌴

Best breakfast and friendliest hosts we've met in our 2 months in Southeast Asia. Organizes tours and activities for reasonable prices.- Good location within walking distance of attractions and amenities.

Allergic to cats and was not aware of their presence beforehand. Street noise was loud even with windows closed, affecting sleep.

The staff were friendly and helpful, check-in was quick, Wi-Fi was excellent, breakfast provided, central location close to attractions.

Nothing to fault.
