Poring Hot Springs is south east of Mt Kinabalu where shared open hot baths are available. There are no spa facilities. The only exciting item is the tree top walk comprising of 5 interconnecting swing bridges between trees. The plank on which you walk is rather narrow and swings if more than one person walks on it. If you bring your camera along it costs RM 35 each.
Waterfront downtown is where activities come alive in the evening. One side is vegetable/fruits market, while on the other is bbq seafood market. In front of which is the Filipino market where ethnic crafts are sold. Farther down is the port and fish auction place.
Stay in KK instead of Borneo One which is a huge complex with an equally big shopping mall because there are traffic jams during peak hours. It took me 2 jams to travel from KK to Borneo One in the evening. Taxis here charge according to meter. Bus in town do not travel out of town. Other buses are not allowed into town.
There are no fixed bus stands outside town. From Borneo One to KK, you stand by the road and hail the relevant bus to stop. Pay RM 1 and the bus takes you to the terminal where you transfer to a KK bus.
