The room aircon is definitely cold, The place we stay is near the Petaling Street night market, which was good. Coffee shops and KK mart is available near the premises.

This hotel does not have a elevator, but the workers are kind and helpful, which he help to carry out luggages.The shower is not functioning properly, very weak water supply.

Staffs - Kumar was the receptionist. He did a fantastic job in accomodating me; friendly vibe overall Room - i got 3 bunkbeds room and it was awesome! It was cold and the bed was super comfortable. The wall socket and lights are working. Overall the best. Kitchen & dining area - in the lobby and pretty chill vibe. Love the decorations and furniture placements with sufficient lighting. Toilet - lota of sink and has warm water People - everyone has great mentality and display better understanding in living together. As expected from various educated foreigners/travellers that came there.

Shower room - water pressure is super low. Not enjoying the shower time at all - big window in the shower room. Holyyy free show for people outside.

Good wifi downstairs, great AC in the room, comfortable double bed and spacious room. Free breakfast is coffee/tea and toast with margarine and jam, which is great. Hostel staff are friendly and helpful. We had to leave at 4am for a bus and they were happy to wake up at that time for us to check out.

There are quite a few bad reviews on Google for this hostel so that is sad, it is a budget hostel and it is very very good value for money. I think people have very high standards for budget hostels here. Cons: Wifi didn’t work in the bedroom but it is good wifi downstairs. Make sure you ask for a room with windows!

It's not bad, definitely better than what the comments suggested. The sink and toilets are clean, the rooms are clean as well, I'd say you get a little bit more than you are paying for. At least my stay was comfortable enough and was above my expectations. Oh, there were no pests in my room as well. I recommend people who likes to travel or just have fun around the city and wants to have a cheap but also comfy place to sleep at night to stay here.

To be fair there is nothing to nitpick about for the price.

staff is super helpful and friendly. Provided me all the tips to walk around the city and also gently bought me a simcard as I was facing some issues to get it. breakfast is simple but it works just fine. location is quite good. really close to buses and metro.

cleaning could be a bit better, specially toilets and also in the room. Spent around 4 days at the place and during this time no one came to clean it up. also need some maintenance as it looks to be an old property. used to be a hotel and it was turned into a hostel. there are some locals living at the place so don’t expect a hostel atmosphere.

The staff is kind and thoughtful, location is good (yes, there's homeless people around the corner, but they're harmless), lockers available in the common area downstairs. Drinking water available (also hot water to make yourself some tea). Basic breakfast available.

The hostel is a bit dark, but that's not an issue. The rest was fine.

I Love the locations it's perfect near the market and some tourist atttraction, but the facilities are not so clean and old maybe because the building is very old and the amenties are not so good.

I don't like the set up of the rooms very not comportable and the toilet not so clean.

Great value for money. The location is excellent, with most of what you want to see in KL within walking distance, including tons of food and shopping in Chinatown and Petaling. Last but not least, the staff is incredibly friendly and helpful, so I highly recommend you to stay here if you plan on going to KL!
