While the hotel is a bit inconvenient to travel by foot, it is located near KLCC and all the malls that visitors should make a trip to. The hotel was clean and spacious, it feels very much like a dorm / apartment because the corridors are “outdoors”. But overall, perfect for a short trip :)

I only stayed on day. On the first morning after check in, a camera flash and shutter sound occurred in the room around 5 am. When I reported it to the staff they came into my room and just stood there. When I asked them to call the police, they refused… so I left. Beware of room 202, I can’t speak for the other rooms.

This is not what was expected, definitely not 4-star standard. Rooms smelt damp and mouldy, our clothing soon started to smell the same. Location close to Bukit Bintang and Aloe Food Market which was convenient but closer to the hotel was a lot of pubs and clubs and generally didn't feel safe to walk through, at night. General area was very dirty and had mice everywhere, but still surprised to find a mouse in the hotel room. Staff were very accommodating and understanding regardless, they moved us to another room and helped take our things out. I have to say that the room cleanliness needs improvement as there was a lot of dust in corners and dead flies. I'm sorry but I did not enjoy my stay and would not have paid the price I paid for a room like that.

Very disappointing stay, hotel is understaffed. Checkin process was poor, for room cleaning need to chase staff all the time, very unsafe environment anybody can walk in hotel, no proper security. Only positive point is the location close to city centre.

Great for something budget
Amongst the many great things, the rainfall shower is the best thing that ever happened to me in this hotel. Is the water in KL free? I am not sure if they forgot to tune the shower head to minimize the sprinkle, but I love that I was like poured a bucket of water every time I bathe. Feels like I'm bathing on waterfalls. 😆 I love it. I like that its hallway is outdoor. You hear crickets at night and in the morning, the vision of greens is refreshing to the eyes. The room numbers are marked on the entrance floor. Unique. The staff were kind and accommodating too. They don't have amenities like pool, gym, or resto but they provide basic toiletries and stuffs in the room. The room is neat and small but enough for me or two. Not cramped at all.

The room was well designed with a huge bed that felt very luxurious. I stayed only one night and arrived late so just wanted to sleep. The personnel is a bit hit or miss, I had very contrasting experiences. I did not appreciate being telephoned at 11:30am to be told that check out was midday. They need to look at ventilation, upon entering the room there was a distinct smell of damp/humidity. This is a shame because it takes away from the room being beautiful otherwise.

The hotel is nicely designed, clean and is within walking distance to Changkat. However the area is quite noisy and the rooms are not sound proofed. The bed is also not so comfy. Woke up not feeling well rested. The parking space is terribly small and is inconvenient (you have to pay a fee for what basically is a sidewalk parking lol). The staff at the reception are also not very friendly

Right at the top of the hill of Bukit Bintang, where all the night life bars and restaurants are located. Room was very spacious, clean, and quiet. In the mornings, I awoke to the sounds of bird song, which gave the feeling of waking up in a rainforest.

Well located, private and clean.
I wouldn’t say this is a hotel. They don’t have the amenities you get at one. There are just rooms and a restaurant in the building. As such, for the price we paid, i thought it was abit expensive. However, the location is perfect. Away from crowd, yet just 10mins drive to any popular malls etc. You will find convenient stores, pubs and eateries a stone throw away. The room I got is big enough, clean and well stocked. Only thing missing were snacks and drinks from the mini bar. Abit weird i thought. 1 last thing for the management to note. We had a great experience with the staff there except for one young indian lady. Made no eye contact when she talk and does not smile at all, felt as though we were not welcomed. Perhaps training them abit more on customer service would help. It is a pity otherwise, because everything else was great. Thank you for the accommodation!
