Still room for improvement ”

The hotel management should always ensure that there is ALWAYS someone manning the reception counter irrespective of any problems the hotel might be facing like the lack of manpower. Guests are of the utmost important in this line of business. Hence, they shouldn't be made to wait to be served. Overall room is spacious and comfy enough.

Comfortable & clean budget hotel”

Newly built, so room facilities are still pretty new.

This is a great hotel for short stays. Treat it as a budget/backpacker hotel and you shall not be disappointed! What I like: 1) I stayed three nights. No-frills hotel with basic services only. Bed looks clean and comfortable with Astro TV channels. Wifi speed can be quite fast but sometimes can be intermittent, which happened on the first night only. 2) Great and affordable food nearby. There is a 24-hour Indian restaurant on the ground floor but I skipped this and went to the other one (NZ Curry House) instead, which is across the road. This is because NZ Curry House comes with a menu with prices CLEARLY stated, so I know they are not making unreasonable profits from hotel guests. Try the Chinese herbal soup restaurant behind the NZ Curry House as the food quality is great and sometimes they give you desserts for FREE if you eat when it is near closing. There is also a coffee shop opposite the Chinese restaurant which offers cheap food as the place is populated with students from the local colleges. Of course, you can walk about 10 minutes to the Festival Mall shopping mall for more classy and expensive foods. 3) Easy to travel to city area by bus but you have to cross the busy Jalan Genting Kelang road in front of the hotel. Many buses go to Chow Kit where you can hop onto the Monorail to go to almost any famous attractions in the region. The journey takes about 15-20 mins only as there is only one street Jalan Pahang before turning to Chow Kit area. Go for the aircon buses which accept RM1 for the journey. So make sure you have enough small change. It is actually quite safe to travel by bus. What I do not like: 1) Very bad sound proofing or none at all. I heard people talking very loud outside the room. Thought it was the cleaners but actually it was caused by guests in the adjacent room! 2) Hotel is not very accessible as you need to take LRT to Wangsa Maju and then a cab to reach. To end, it is a good stay if you do not have string
