Awesome vibe. Friendly atmosphere. Suitable for solo travelers. Good for traveling with friends.”

I have been travelling to Kuala Lumpur since Very young age of my, but I have never came across any hostel like Dorms KL2. This time suggests by my friend so stayed. While staying in Dorms KL2, I was in love with each and everything of this hostel. The Manager of the hostel (Mr. Pandu, it’s his nickname) well behaved and helpful nature. The stuffs of the hostel are equally friendly and helpful (Miss. Sayam, Miss Taniya ). As my stay was during new year, far from family and friends but did not realised as the hostel organised so many activities and new year evening party for all in-house guest. Great location, Near public transport and so many food options. Clean rooms and bathrooms. Great beds and okay furniture in acceptably kept up rooms. Overall Best value for money. In end I would love to thanks the hostel manager Mr. Pandu and all the stuffs, for making my stay and new year evening so wonderful.

KL Dorms - Great Atmosphere”

I personally enjoyed my stay in the dorms. There's a nice main area - its cosy while you can find a quiet place too. All kind of people are gathering there, the rooms were super clean, nice + good size lockers. The staff is truly helpful and sensitive to help as best as they can. I recommend you staying there also because there are amazing restaurants around and it's quite central for the attraction you want to visit (or party too!)
