“Great stay, beautiful private room”
Solo traveller at 40 and booked a private room. The room was beautiful with hanging space, lots of pillows air con, mirror and desk. The hostel itself was also great, with shared fridge, microwave and hot water facilities as well as a bread/toast and spreads available for breakfast. Tea and coffee also available. The bathrooms were constantly being cleaned and we're spotless. Credit to the staff member who was always on top of it. Small smoking/vaping enclosed balcony too which was handy to have have to keep going downstairs.

“It's a very homey place to stay.”
The entire place was lovely and always clean. The staff is very helpful. I love that we had to leave our shoes outside to keep the place clean. Free breakfast of bread, choice of spread and coffee/tea was available until 2 pm. There are about 5 shared toilet and bathrooms but the vibe to respect shared spaces makes living with other guests from other countries worthwhile. The location is close to the mall and 24/7 food establishments.

I liked everything. Very clean, super nice furniture, plenty of showers and toilets (always clean). Very nice staff. Good check-in instructions. They even kindly let us stay for a couple of hours after check-out time, since our flight was a bit later in the day. I really recommend this place.

Clean and organized hostel. One of the best I have visited. The queen sized beds in the dorm were comfy, with plenty of storage space. The hostel is very clean and gets wiped everyday. The social area is good to meet people, so you may find some friends

“Just perfect”
Everything was absolutely perfect , the hostel is located right in the center but in a quiet area (however near all amenities and a major mall) . Great Indian restaurant just next door, delicious noodle restaurant in the mall. Hostel is super cute and really all details were thought to make your stay enjoyable. It’s social so you can gather but without being noisy so you can rest too. Bedrooms and dorms are just great … the place is spotless clean and beds are really comfy but all this is pointless without mentioning the exceptional staff and especially Lea who has been continuously helping through our journey in Borneo. She contributed to making this trip unforgettable and planned almost all of the great activities we did and transport. This is genuinely the kindest and most efficient team I have seen in a hostel …. A warm thank you , you are great … Shayla and Sebastian

“Best hostel - Spotless clean and amazing staff”
It's probably the best hostel I've ever stayed in. The late check-in was easy due to the very detailed information and instructions provided. The entire place is spotless clean and the staff is so helpful. Even though the tour I wanted to do was fully booked for my preferred date, they managed to organise an alternate tour provider with a similar offer. And that's the night before I wanted to go. What an amazing support!

“Bright, fresh, modern and bijou. I will return to Faloe Hostel next time I’m back in KK”
Spotlessly clean and situated in an incredible shopping mall, this hidden gem is a treasure for travellers to Kota Kinabalu.
