I don't think I'd class The Royal Mulu Resort as a "Hostel".
It is a very nice resort.
There is accomodation on the opposite river bank thst could probably be classed as "Hostel" or "Budget". However having met people staying there who booked a package from Miri ( as we did). The Royal Mulu offers much better value.
