    Staff didn't come to clean shared bathroom unless requested. For private bathrooms, we don't need them cleaned daily, but we feel when guests are sharing a bathroom, the cleaning should be regular, and not upon request.

    Great location right near Rainforest Discovery Centre, and friendly staff. Food from the restaurant was okay.

    Surrounding the nature was quite special.

    All good!!

    Just returned from an exceptional stay at Sepilok B&B in Borneo, Malaysia - a great place for any adventurous traveler! The staff is incredibly friendly, making us feel welcomed from the moment we stepped in. The breakfast fueled us up each morning for the day's explorations. The location is unparalleled - a stone's throw from the orangutan sanctuary and discovery center, perfect for those early morning walks. As for the room, it was clean and spacious, with both AC and hot water - just the kind of comfort you need after a day of adventure in Borneo. Highly recommended for anyone seeking a comfortable, affordable and convenient base for their Borneo adventure. Thank you, Sepilok B&B, for a truly enriching experience!

    Breakfast was a bit disappointing with little choice (fried rice, noodles, or soggy french toast - get there quick before it runs out). The accommodation was fully booked and staff were struggling with numbers. Service was spotty, but always with a friendly smile. There's a good restaurant (Rainforest Resort) with more choice around the corner, 5 mins walk away. You can also use the pool at Rainforest Resort for MYR25pp if you need to cool off.

    Loved the balcony from the huge family bedroom. Location is close to RDC, but a bit of a walk (and no footpath along road) to the sanctuaries. But Grab taxi makes it super easy and cheap to get around. AC worked brilliantly. Some beds were comfy, the double bed rock hard. I felt like Goldilocks trying to find the right one - my kids weren't as fussed.

    Curtains in the bedrooms didn’t cover the top windows - so kids woke up with the sun at 530am. Breakfast options were a bit limited - but the food available was good. For the tea and coffee drinkers, like many places in Sabah, creamer rather than milk is the only option.

    Location was perfect for walking to the orangutan, sun bear and rainforest treetop walk. The accommodation was simple but spacious and the staff were friendly and helpful.

    The attitude of the reception girl was really disappointing, she seemed so uninterested (probably because was more interested in a movie/show she was watching when we arrived) and indifferent. The breakfast is a complete disappointment as well. For the first time we faced the situation that there was literally nothing to eat when we arrived at 08:40 am. When we asked the reception girl how this was possible, she in her usual indifferent manner replied that the kitchen is working on and it will take up to 20 (!) min to get ready… it was a buffet and not even the end of breakfast, so all seemed weird. We had stayed in jungle resort before for the same price and the experience was way much better, starting from staff attitude, finishing accommodation comfort

    Good location - only 7 min from RCD where you can go for a night walk in the jungles. The transfer from one resort to another cost affordable price 10 ringgit and the driver was a very friendly and good guy

    At Sepilok B&B, I appreciated the quiet and natural setting. Its location near the Rain Forest Discovery Centre and the Orangutan Rehabilitation Sanctuary made sightseeing convenient. The rooms were clean, and the breakfast was tasty. Our road to the place took longer than planned, and the staff was really helpful and kindly waited for us to check in.
