Nothing to dislike really. The live music from the food street were going on till late but finish by Midnight. Perhaps the only thing is the Hotel lobby is at 1st floor and you would have to pull your heavy luggage up to the lobby to check in. There is a lift which only starts at the lobby.

Location was superb. Many shops nearby, 24hrs food court. Next to Gaya street food on Saturday weekends which turns into Sunday street market. Rooms and hotel is new and bath room are clean and nice toiletries. So convenient to walk around and see the water front and surrounding shops. Free Wifi. Coffee/tea and biscuits provided. For the price what else would you asked for.

Very nice hotel in KK downtown. The stuff was super friendly and the room nice and clean with a comfy bed. At the weekend there is a night market directly in front of the hotel so it is pretty loud. Therefore we recommend earplugs. Otherwise it was great and we would definitely stay there again.

Wifi was slow and I couldn't even browse YouTube on my second night. Apart from this, it will be the 3 flight of stairs as this could be inconvenient for those elder travelers as the lift is only available at level 1, not ground.

This poshtel may be the first in Malaysia that caters for backpackers and solo-travelers like me in such nice, cozy and most importantly, clean ambient! The room size is good enough for 2 with standard amenities that makes your stay convenient, apart from being comfortable. I often see this type of hotel in Taiwan and did not expect it in Malaysia, with such good standards. Would definitely recommend to others and return for future stay.

Little noise from outside in the evenings, but that's the price to pay for the central location.

Great little ho(s)tel, superb location near restaurants, supermarket, mall, sunset spot and markets. Clean and well designed room, you notice the attention to detail. Friendly and attentive staff. Highly recommend.

The water pressure can be increaaed

Came to KK for Borneo Marathon 2024 and stayed at this hotel and one of my best decisions this year! Close to night market on Friday and Saturday (2-3 metres away) and morning market (2-3 metres away) at Gaya Street. Surrounded with hundreds of cafes / restaurants and easily can find convenience store. There is a Bataras supermarket at the back within walking distance and close to the quay area for a good spot of sunset / sunrise! Facilities are great and netflix working very well!

Not spacious enough

There was no customer parking. Also, the lift broke down while we were there.

Good location. It is in the middle of the hustle and bustle of Gaya street. Short walk to the Jetty area, and the water front area.

It will be perfect score if they have shower head. And the shower curtain a nit dirty.

Impressive. Probably the best Hotel in Gaya street!

Although a good location, unfortunately it did mean it was quite noisy at night/early in the morning. Our room also has the constant light from the signage directly outside so wasn't very dark. Everything else was great though!

Central location, very clean and comfortable.

It's right next to the night market so it was really LOUD until 11pm on the weekend. I also booked here for 2 separate nights and the first check-in was smooth, but the second one was so slow. The receptionist was faffing about. She was probably just doing her job but it took so long and i was literally just staying for 4 hours!

Clean and comfortable

There could have been more space in the bathroom for placing toiletries. Also, because of a lot of swimming, I needed more ways to hang up wet clothes.

The bed was so super comfortable. The pillows and quilt were very soft. I slept really well in the room.

Not a thing.

Excellent in every way. Adorable. Very nicely decorating. Everything you need, new and nice with great service. It really is a poshtel

It was a poshtel indeed. The bed was comfortable enough and the facilities and common areas were clean and luxurious. Shoutout to the on-site staff, who were all incredibly helpful, attentive, and quick on their feet. I highly recommend this place.

Nothing - it is exactly as described

Poshtel is ideally located for travellers and tourists in the harbour area of Kota Kinabalu and it lives up to its name as a rare gem. It is a cross between a hostel and hotel and is tremendous value for money. It feels very fresh and new with very pleasant and helpful staff and nicely decorated and furnished rooms. We were very comfortable and rebooked for an additional night. Highly recommended.
