Centrally located in the heart of KL. Easy walking distance to many of the attractions, shopping malls and great places to eat. Nice hostel with large common area, satellite TV, DVDs, laundry and free Wi-Fi. Friendly staff with lots of local knowledge. Highly recommended

A simple place with friendly and helpful staff. However when I was there the rooms and showers were not very clean - cobwebs, dust, rubbish, etc

Had a very good stay at this hostel. Centrally located in the city center but on a quiet street. Very clean place with good beds and showers. Will be back.

Staff at the reception (Rian and Justin) were very helpful and friendly. I hope they get a pay rise from their manager! The location is central, but in need of a big clean-up.

You get exactly what you pay plus some cockroach in gratis :) But I really enjoyed the stay here. Good shared areas(except some privacy problem), everything is close, good room with air condition, friendly staff.

All was ok. The place is near Bukit Bintang (were all the action takes place in KL) and is a good value for the money. The only bad thing were the toilets. They could be, by far, more clean.

Nice, clean hostel. Upstairs area was great. After some visiting some terrible hostels in Malaysia this place was a nice surprise. Only problem was that on checking out they tried to charge us double for internet usage, to which we had to put up a fight to get the correct cost.

The staff are really helpful. Dont expect a lot of space in your room. Gate is padlocked at all times so good security. Shame some guests cant read the signs on the walls about keeping noise down late at night. Otherwise a great experience and would stay here again.

Very cosy hostel with friendly staff and all the on-site facilities you would want like internet, laundry, communal areas etc. Close to shops and a monorail station, you need to walk a bit to get to some of the main sights, but this is true anywhere you stay because KL is so spread out!

The male dorm is right next to the reception and therefore quite noisy. Besides that the place is right in the golden triangle, very clean and within walking distance to a lot of KL attractions.

Very difficult to find the place! The road system nearby is very complicated. It will be greatly helpful if the hotel shows travelers in details how to get there from the airport. Only an oversimple address is far from enough! (it took me nearly 4hrs from the airport to the homestay hotel!)
