Dock In Hostel

The dorm mates (mother and daughter) were a bit noisy close to sleeping hours and in the morning with their packing and zipping. Aside from that, another dorm mate wanted to switch off the aircond in the room as it is blowing directly to her bed (the temperature control has to be done at the reception area). Overall, it is a nice, clean, comfortable place to spend the nights, decent in-house cafe with food and drinks, plenty of local food options within 5 minutes walking distance, close to the beach for sunrise and sunset view.

The location is within walking distance to Tg. Aru beach, plenty of food choices nearby although it is not located at the town centre, you can always take Grab to reach your destination. There is a cafe at lobby area for guests and outsiders.

Good hostel and I always stay here overnight when I need to catch up next morning flight in kkia. Near to airport and they have some shops nearby if you need something to eat. Facilities inside are enough for the basic things you need in a hostel and quite ok for privacy. Recommended.

Second time staying here. Requested for lower bunk bed but because another 4 guest had checked in earlier, didn't manage to get it though :( The other 3 guests who stayed in the same room were so noisy. They chit chat until late at night and made the room so untidy. Their bags and clothes were everywhere on the floor eventhough they only stay for ~6hours. The next morning, they woke up and packing at damn early 2.30am!!! How to sleep with all the chit chat sound and plastic bag wrapping sound? Management should strictly ask the guest to keep the big luggage outside so that they won't do packing at this wee hours of the morning and disturb the other guests. Again, the remote control of air-con, which i don't understand why is it not provided for each room? The room were so hot in the midnight and the guest need to walk down to lobby to get the temperature fixed? Otherwise, cleanliness and facilities are execellent.

Pleasant stay. Near to airport and Tanjung Aru First Beach. Superbly clean room. I got clean towel daily and the bed is comfortable. I enjoyed their coffee the most. Hard to find single origin light-roast beans around but they are selling it at a very affordable price. Support local grown! Will come again.

It was SO clean!! The cafe is way overpriced. Walk down the street and around the corner from the KFC is THE best Malay restaurant - value for quantity and quality of food and beverages.

Pros: Great coffee, cleanliness, environment and condition of the hostel reminds you of a 5 star hotel. Cons: 1) They pit kids in the same room unsupervised; completely unacceptable! 2) Allowed some guests to check in at 2am waking everyone up in the room.

Super clean and cheap! I stayed two nights at a hotel near Jesselton Point and moved to Dock In for my last night. I should've just stayed at Dock In for the whole trip. So clean. I would love to go back to Dock In.

I booked this hostel as it is near the airport, and one of the hostels in KK that accommodate midnight check-ins. Everything is clean and well maintained. I think they deserve a 5-star rating because of its facilities and very affordable rates. The only minor twist here is it is a bit far away from the city center, so you need to book a car to get there. Otherwise, it is a thumbs up for me.

Value for money and fitted our needs.

good stay very clean very nice and good staff service, no complaints really

Great value for the price paid as i got last minute booking promotion price. The hotel looks exactly as described in the photo, beautiful interior design, comfortable and clean. The pillow is fluffy, the capsule/bed is spacious enough. Toilet & bathroom are seperated from each other, clean & big. There is a nice & cozy cafe opened from 10am-10pm, they are famous for their brownies & cookies. You can get RM3 off for 1 beverage in the cafe if you stayed here. Just 1 issue encountered during the stay: When I called the receptionist and request to adjust the air-conditioner temperature, the staff asked me to get the remote control at the reception, and return asap after use. Would be better if the hostel can provide 1 remote control at each room so that guest don't need to go up and down. Overall, great stay!

Overall are ok! My friend and I stay for one night in 4 beds in a room and there are another guest staying in the same room with us. The guest took our hangers to hang her clothes & underwear and hang around the stairs, when my friend climbing up to upper bed accidentally make her clothes drop and she was being so fierce to us.

one of the receptionist was super helpful and kind, and speaks good English!! it's close to the airport and beach, but a small downside is you can hear the plane all the time (i have my earplugs). Anyway, if you're more of a countryside, fond-of-nature kind of person, then i recommend this to you cuz not much to see in the KK city centre?

This is really a good place for solo or a group of traveler. Near with Airport and Tanjung Aru. What I really like is the GOOD INTERNET CONNECTION and VERY CLEAN BATHROOM/SHOWER. Breakfast is included. It was a very simple breakfast I don't mind because the room is cheap.

Breakfast would have been nicer with eggs like what is served at other (and cheaper) hostels in town. Instead only had bread and plain fried rice. Aircon was a bit warm and ended up waking up in sweat. Else bed and all other facilities were top notch.

It was my second stay. This time, I Went there in a group of 4. Booked the whole 4 beds in a room with ensuite bathroom. All facilities are well-maintained. Nicely located at Tanjung Aru; a mere 6 minutes from KK international airport. The only thing I realised from my 2 times stay was that the staff seems to have double standard service towards locals. I did noticed that they seems friendlier with the foreigners compared to us locals. Just to clarify, we did pay for the same amount though! Please improve your service please. All in all, it’s definitely the best place for a short stay in KK.

Good hostel! Very clean,people are really nice and polite ! I love this hostel! Recommend!!

The hostel is located near the beach,u can cycle there and you can easily reach city centre with Grab..dorms are clean,toilet is big with hot shower..there is also a nice cafe at the lobby..

I love the atmosphere of this hostel. Everything is quite new and clean. The staff were friendly, the food was good, and there's comfy sofas where u can just relax. The beds are comfortable and the toilets are well maintained. Definitely recommend this place!
