Amazing stay

Pros: Everything was perfect!!! Staff are lovely and attentive, specially Hana the manager!! The hostel itself has everything you may need, such as a beautiful kitchen full of utensils, gym, dining area, and great comfy and clean rooms. Very well located, near Chinatown area and all the touristic spots. We recommend this place 1000 times.

Cons: We loved everything.

Prihatiwi 9/10

It was a good stay with great service and strategic location - just be aware of potential noise from the gym if you stay

Pros: I had a pleasant stay. The location is excellent - just short walk to the train station, bus stop, minimarket, and other conviniences. It made getting around very easy. The staff were consistently nice and helpful throughtout the stay. They were always ready to assist, and their warm attitude added to the oberall experience. The hotel itslef is clean and well maintained, which I really appreciated.

Cons: I stayed on 11th floor. I’m not entirely sure, but is seens like there is a gyn located on the floor above. If someone is doing weighlifting and tends to drop the weights, the noise and vibration can be quite loud and noticable inside the room. It didn’t happen all the time, but when it did, it was disruptive.

Pros: We only stayed for one night between two flights. The location is great, we walked everywhere, it's a great base to explore from. It's perfectly adequate for a short stay. I would probably book again when I'm in town.

Cons: The room was quite small and had a damp smell to it - once we turned the air con off and let some fresh air in, it was better.

Immacolata 10/10
United Kingdom 🇬🇧

Pros: This place is 10/10. The location is just perfect, in between traditional and modern KL. Everything can be reached on foot, but underground/bus stops are also nearby. The hotel itself is modern and spotless clean. I stayed in the “one of a kind studio” and wouldn’t change it for anything else: it has the right amount of space and it is so well organised that it feels tidy and comfortable. The bathroom is modern with a great shower; the toiletries are also very good quality. The bed is large and comfortable, I slept perfectly fine during my entire stay. Water refill and a microwave are in the hallway, accessible to everyone. My floor was mostly quiet and all guests seemed to be respectful. The staff is super helpful and friendly. They will assist you with everything you might need. I haven’t used the communal spaces yet (especially the laundry area), but I will come back here in few days and definitely test that too.

Cons: There is absolutely nothing that didn’t go well. If I really must mention one thing, is the fact that the room gets quite warm and - as someone who doesn’t love A/C - sometimes I struggled to find the right temperature. Overall I got on well, so definitely no big deal. The slightest amount of light comes through from the sides of the blinders, so if you’re particularly sensible to that, a sleeping mask might be needed.

Perfect modern spot with great accessibility

Pros: Clean, amazingly maintained property with high sustainability standards and great walking location from food and Chinatown. Friendly and efficient staff and wonderfully designed rooms with modern facilities

Silvia 9/10
Italy 🇮🇹

Good hotel

Pros: The room was nice, cleand and modern. In general had everything needed for one or more nights, rhe hotel is pretty new and located in a quite practical location, just 10 minutes from Chinatown. Staff is nice and there is the possibility to get many amenities upon arrival. Overall a bit pricey for what it offers but a good hotel

Cons: The breakfast was really no sense, they only offer a juice in the bottle, plain bread with butter and an option between cold Nasi Lemak or a cheese sandwich, kinda ridiculous to be honest. I would never recommend to pay extra for this.

No view but great hotel!

Pros: Loved their focus on sustainability. They had a pantry with filtered water and microwave. We were able to avoid so much plastic waste by refilling our water bottles. Helpful staff, super clean room, bathroom and common spaces.

Cons: The room had a window so i had hoped there would be a view (even the street view would have been great). There was just the ventilation shaft outside the window.
