My stay at the hotel was a bit of a mixed bag. The rooms were shabby and smaller than expected, located in the next building, but the service was exceptional, especially with the KL Sentral access, which made getting around easy.

The hotel is located in the heart of the city, near the station, making it very convenient. The rooms, although old, were clean and had a smoking option. While smaller than expected, it’s worth considering an upgrade to the executive deluxe or triple deluxe rooms for more space. Service was professional and attentive, especially from the Nepalese staff. The location is excellent, within walking distance to KL Sentral, making transport and food easily accessible even late at night. The dining options cater to various tastes, with a decent breakfast selection. Facilities were satisfactory overall.

The hotel is conveniently located near KL Sentral station, making it a strategic choice for easy movement in KL. However, the room in the annex was dark and windowless, giving a tired and unclean impression. The service was below par, lacking hospitality understanding. On the bright side, the location allows quick access to public transport and the newly opened Nu Sentral mall.
