Beware. Avoid this hotel. They held my passport for the duration of my stay, because i don't carry cash for a key deposit. Their credit card processing machine wasn't working, it was very old technology. I tried 4 different cards but none worked. After checkout they refused to return my passport, because they were trying to scam me to pay cash for incidentals which never occurred. I needed to threaten calling the police because i could have missed my flight to another continent. The front desk is corrupt and merciless.

Fantastic staff

Really great staff that are doing a lot for the guests. Have in mind that it’s a budget hotel so the standard isn’t so high but very worth the money paid. The balcony is great to hang out at and from what I heard they are planning a restaurant there which would be great.

Disappointed and an attack.

Was my second stay here but conditions were worse, room was smaller, bed was lined with carpet underneath the bed sheets and aircon was half working. TV was no good either. On our way out we heard a woman screaming for help and when it was time to check out and we left our room, the floor in the hallways, down the stairs had blood trails and a big pool of blood in the doorway infront of the front desk. There had been some sort of incident and a man missing a toe and a woman denying having done anything. It started disappointing and ended with a scare

Disliked: Property conditions & facilities

Cheap place, not too cozy.

The building is an old worn down construction, the elevator is not working. It is situated in the middle of the very crowded Petaling street with vendors and stalls everywhere. If you like that stuff, it is ok, at least you are in the middle of the hustle and bustle. The welcoming Indian lady was smiling and friendly, but the other staff I encountered later on were not so friendly. The room has no window, it is big, but all is quite old and ugly looking. TV channels are only for locals. Matress and pillows were not of the best quality, but it was ok. However, when the hot shower stopped working, I just decided to check out and find another place down the road.
