Walls are like paper mache - try the dorm room, my german friend likened it to a 1940's style bunker...

Excellent location in China Town for seeing KL. We stayed in the 9 bed dorm as there were 5 of us together. It was cheap and was fine for 1 night - we had no lights in our room and the fans wernt the most efficient but great for what we wanted - cheap and cheerful!

We strongly suspect a worker there (male, local) is using the format of billing, after booking thru you to conduct a scam. We booked 2 double rooms on my credit card. This took the deposit of ~$8 at the time. Each room was RM25 p.p.p/n We stayed 2 nights. When we got our bill it said charges; RM25 x 4 = 100 RM6.76 Service charge -RM20 deposit-to be deducted --------- RM206 TOTAL RM180 Balance due - deposit ................................... Our balance should have said RM 86 {(rm25 X 4)=RM100 + RM6.76 - RM20} He had done this on both our friends and ours, and when we queried he kept saying 'I only understand the bottom line, "balance due", that is what u owe'. I strongly suspect this is something he does to make extra income. Also, the service charge of RM6.76 was on both reciepts as was the RM20 deposit. Although this works in our favour RM20 is approx $7US, this does not add up either as Euro5 (approx RM25) was only billed from my account. Our friends left later and met a woman they thought was the boss, who the next morning was giving out about the mans behaviour to another staff member altho we're unsure how aware she was of the details? Perhaps you could-and should take a look into this, as if it is a scam its the booking system of your website which he is abusing. please feel free to contact me for any further information. kind regards hannahclose

It is a huge building with LOTS of rooms and good space. The shower and toilet facilities are brand new. They have internet access and a big TV and couchs to relax on.

This place is a pretty good package: internet at a very competitive rate, big bathrooms with hot water, right there in China town for cheap eats (avoid the awful Reggae Bar, however), close to two LRT (subway) stations, and right near the central bus station. Rooms are charmless and stuffy, but...
