Relaxing and fun

I had a nice time staying here - the beds and facilities were great and the staff was even better. I understand why other reviews mentioned the noise, but I had no trouble with noise / sleeping (on the first floor) - friends on the second floor were a little less lucky. Overall I had fun and had a great time - I'd start here again.

Reggae Mansion is suited for persons who prefer an informal atmosphere. And don't feel offended by having to place a deposit for your towel(s). The hostel atmosphere is underlined by the fact that you don't have an en suite bathroom. After a shower you have to go and ask to get dry towels. No place in the room for wet ones! The staff is very friendly and helpful. No possibility for having breakfast; the cafe/cantine opens at lunchtime.

Beautiful Colonial Mansion

We stayed 1 night. Overall is a comfortable stay. We book the Superior Twin Bed room located at 1st floor of the center wing. Room was clean and large with shared bathrooms. Due to the wooden colonial flooring, do expect slight sound of foot step walking along the corridor middle of the night. We do not experience any noise nuisance from the party at the roof top, probably due to the room located at the 1st floor. No towels and vanity set provided in the room. Check in was pleasant.

Good party hostel, bad WiFi and bathrooms

It’s a party hostel. I wouldn't have booked it if I had known. When you check-in, the paper you sign states that it's a party hostel and you can't leave bad reviews because of that. If you like party hotels, you'll love this place. It's clean, in great condition, has a rooftop bar and includes dinner (you can buy breakfast). Dorm beds are large with a curtain to block out light and for privacy, although the mattress is quite thin. Bring your own padlock for the large locker under the bed. However, if you want to actually get a good night's sleep, book somewhere else; you can hear the rooftop bar in the 2nd floor dorms until 3am. Fair enough, it's a party hostel. Apart from the noise which is to be expected in this kind of place, there are other negatives: * Noise for a long time very early in the morning that sounded like people moving furniture. * I booked a 4-bed dorm but was put in a 6-bed dorm. * WiFi was very bad: no signal in the dorm and even with full signal in the lobby in the evening, it was so slow as to be unusable. * The showers are very small with the shower almost over the toilet so the toilet paper was wet. * There were only 2 male showers for the whole floor of 3 or 4 dorm rooms. I checked out early and found another place where I could actually sleep. Again, if you're looking for a party hostel, it's probably great but if you want to sleep well and want to be able to actually use WiFi, consider other options.

Did the trick nicely

Enjoyable location, with easy access to all levels of transport to check out KL from all avanues. Not far from the major bar and club scene, within walking distance for those brave enough to Changkat bar area. The pods provided in the dorms are awesome, cleaned daily and the bathroom facilities highly up to scratch for a dorm. Definitely would go back again when I visit KL, just so easy to get too and find. Easy to get in and out, no worries about security as was all pretty tight so had no issue to leave my gear behind in the lockers etc even when away for a few days unplanned. With the bar above sometimes I just went to bed in the afternoon to relax with the air-con then woke up to some enjoyable music and other ex-pats to socialise with. If you are someone after quiet, I wouldn't recommend a top dorm room as abit noisy with the club above beating away til 3am but for me it didn't fuss me at all.

Good hostel only if you are looking to party.

Check in was simple. The place feels very secure. To get into the guest area, you need to punch in a code. To get into each hallway of rooms, you need a different code. To get into the room itself, you need a key. A lot to remember, but feels secure. Wifi password changed daily, only told if asked, and was "unreliable" at best. Check in was alright. They tell you about the free dinner being served. You then go in to get the free dinner, and you're told you need a voucher from the front desk, which they didn't provide or inform you of when they told you about the dinner in the first place. The dinner was also a few french fries, noodles, and a single tiny piece of chicken. The other option was pasta with fries. They also don't tell you if you need an outlet converter, you are to use theirs, so you need to go back and ask for one from them. The bunks were a good size, so that was a positive. I'd suggest choosing a bottom one if you can, the ladders to the top seemed to be difficult for people to use. However, the room I was in smelled very musty, there were large cracks in the walls and it looked like there was mold. The air conditioners didn't work very well in the rooms either, I found. This is a party hostel, there is a rooftop bar. If you don't intend on partying it can be difficult to sleep, when you can feel the bass in your bunk even with ear plugs in. If you want to drink and socialize though, the rooftop bar has an amazing view, and well priced drinks for the area
