Our visit was excellent with very helpful staff. They helped us out with basically everything to book tours to Mulu, including a highly recommended homestay just outside the Mulu park. Please note that the hostel has recently moved to Jln. Merpati lot 839, which is a bit more central and just opposite the Imperial Mall (users of the LP: the... More

Stayed one night in Miri before flying to Mulu National Park. The nice lady who owned the place fixed us a good deal with a freelance guide in the park, made sure we had a free ride to the airport and let us store our luggage, while in Mulu, for free. When we came back, we could take a hot... More

We stayed here for one night and that was more than enough. Our private double room (50RM) was spartan, but was okay and had an air of student halls about it. There was a double bed (with a single bunk on top with no mattress) and a very small set of drawers. The walls were paper-thin which meant it was... More
