    Great Service

    Bathroom is constructed with raw concrete, which I thought looked disgusting. Location is severely lacking. The same hostel in another neighborhood would be a 10/10.

    Quiet rooms, good AC, comfortable beds, outstanding service. Incredibly friendly and thoughtful.

    Aircon is usually on and it’s quite cold inside the rooms, but it’s something common in Southeast Asia.

    The manager is very kind and helpful. There’s some workspace and showers were fine as well. I liked the location - close to many food options, Bukit Bintang MRT, and so on. Yes, the surroundings look dodgy and dirty, but I felt completely safe. There’s a good lock system, either in the rooms and at the entrance.

    The outside of the hostel is not clean, near a market or food court or something like that, but it has no effect too much for my experience.

    Everything is good in a cheap hostel.

    I think the hostel should improve more about the air vacum system which could help the inner air become cleaner

    There needs to be lockers outside of the bed, not just the cupboard in the bed. It’s just awkward without them and makes long stays impossible. I had trouble with the hot water and those grey microfibres towels are not useful.

    This is a very nice hostel for KL standards. It’s in a touristy area, close to many supermarkets and walking distance from the major shopping centres. The people staying here are nice and respectful and the guy managing the place is friendly. The place is kept quite clean. I slept pretty well here.

    I miss a big locker there my whole backpack would fit. However there’s fairly big locker in each bunk where you can easily fit all your valuables.

    Very clean and nice hostel. It’s not a party hostel but it’s fairly social. The owner is very helpful and will gladly advise you with any problem or suggestion. Possibility of a towel, laundry and free coffee/tea as well as a box, where you can pick staff from other travelers or leave things you don’t longer need.

    To get to the bathroom from the dorm you have to go thru the lounge.

    The owner of the hostel went above and beyond to make the stay a pleasant one. Everything was clean and well looked after. The beds had curtains and were very comfortable. The location is good...a quick walk between two monorail stations and big shopping malls.

    The only thing I didn’t like was right outside the hostel - it is a bit hard to find & the area is a bit sketchy with some trash & wierd smells. But you get used to it!

    I really liked this place. I was planning to stay 3 nights but ended up staying 2 weeks! The owner is so amazing & friendly, one of the nicest people I’ve ever met honestly. He is always happy and will help you with anything. Beds are super comfy with a good curtain for privacy. It is very clean, the staff is always sweeping the floors & dusting etc. The shared showers are also good, clean & nice water pressure! And lastly, the location is very central in Bukit Bintang! Will be back if I am ever in KL again!

    The pillow was abit too flat for me, I had to use my jacket and clothing to add some height to it.

    I was greeted by great hospitality by the owner on my check in. He brought me around the hostel, showing me how to on the heater for shower, the facilities and also how to use the lockers. The location is also great, very near Bukit Bintang, lots of malls with plenty of food options just 10mins away. Also, if you are travelling from Singapore, I think the bus for Transtar is just right outside the hostel (I didn't take it but I saw the office and buses).

    Nothing special, maybe the aircon was too cold, but it depends on the preference of your roommates, so…

    Close to food markets and MRT, the location itself may seem dodgy, but it felt completely safe. The host is very attentive and helpful, and the hostel was clean. Wi-fi was also working well. Beds have lots of privacy and lockers.

    The only downside is that it’s not the most social hostel, but it depends on the people that are there! By the end of my stay, it was actually quite social in the common area.

    This is a lovely hostel! Highly recommend a stay here! The owner is extremely sweet and caring, going above and beyond to ensure that everything is clean and comfortable. This was definitely a highlight of my stay! Beds were clean, comfortable, and private with full curtains on all sides. Rooms have AC, and it’s very quiet at night. There’s a little sink area with a fridge and microwave in the common area too! The hostel location is great, close to the center/shopping and restaurants, as well as public transport. Such a lovely stay!! Thank you!
