    The room is simple but it has all the stuff I need as a traveler. The location was easy to find. The instructions for check-in was very clear, I didn't need the assistance from the guard/host once we were there. I also love that it's quiet since we came straight from KL via a bus so we really need a quiet place to stay at for a good rest. I like that there's a coin laundry shop beside the convenience store too.

    The pictures are a very accurate representation of what you get. The host is responsive and friendly. There is even a baby cot in there, which was very thoughtful. The peace and quiet is great. The view is different from the usual buildings you see if you stay at a city hotel. As a solo traveller, I really appreciate the security of the area. The lobby is nice too. Not an issue to get grab to move around. The 2 beds are of different firmness, to suit different folks.

    Great location - walking distance to Aeon and nearby eateries. Apartment was fully functional and reasonably clean. Host was quick to respond with clear instructions and refund for deposit was done without delay.
