TOOJOU Kota Kinabalu - Hostel

TOOJOU Kota Kinabalu - Hostel
2.0 star property
Downtown Kota Kinabalu
9.0 out of 10, Wonderful, (12)
Unwind at this modern Kota Kinabalu hostel featuring a scenic rooftop terrace and convenient bar/lounge. Just 5 minutes from Imago Shopping Mall with Merdeka Square nearby. Enjoy free WiFi and easy access to Tanjung Aru Station.

"Enjoyable stay and a great budget property choice. Staff were all helpful, Wi-Fi good, rooms, although snug, more than adequate for sleeping and showering. The one thing that let the property down was the lack of options at breakfast. Everyday a different breakfast meal was given but you had no idea what it would be and didn’t have another option to choose if it wasn’t to your liking. That said, the quality of the food was good. Would happily stay at the property again if looking for somewhere...
