    Perfect Stay! Asthma Safe Haven!”

    Gigi was amazing! She advised me on a lot of stuff! She is the most loving Malaysian you'll ever meet! The stay here felt a lot like home because of all the care and comfort the place offers. I can confirm that the next time I go back, I'll stay here my entire visit. Make sure you carry an adaptor for the socket connection. No matter which plug you're using, you'll need an adaptor. Also, request to sleep on the bed under the AC because the lady under the other one is quite sensitive to movements. The place has clean drinking water, so carry a water bottle - it'll help you save on bottled water. The place is smoke-free, so if you're asthmatic like me, this will be your safe haven (people smoke anywhere in KL, making life really hard for asthmatic people, but Bodhi Lodge will always be where you can run to!)

    We enjoyed our few nights here, staff was nice and polite, the place was quite clean. I like that they ask you to take your shoes off when walking around the hallways. The internet was pretty fast. Bed was massive and pretty comfortable. Hot showers, we found some toiletries in the shower room too which was quite handy. We will definitely come back to this place!

    Very homey ”

    The incharge ma’am was very helpful and chatty. I was fortunate that when I called the place one hour, there’s bed available and when I arrived at the Bangsar Lrt station around 7pm, clueless and tired from the long journey, the owner was helpful directing me to the place. It’s a hostel, above the mechanics store and there’s plenty restaurants around it. Plus you can hear the train and cars from the room. There’s no tv though but I don’t mind. The roommates I got were very funny and we exchanged lots of stories. However, there’s no fan in the room and if you happened to get the lower deck bed, you might want to lower the air conditioner, but you will freeze the upper deck roomate lar. So give and take.. what’s more with the cheap rent. Sure will come again. 😘
