My stay at this hotel was quite disappointing. The rooms seemed like they hadn't been updated in 20 years with old furniture and a poorly maintained bathroom. The cleanliness from the reception to the room was subpar, making the overall experience unpleasant. On the positive side, the hotel staff were friendly and helpful, especially during the check-in process.

The hotel is near the RapidKL station, which is convenient for transportation, but it's necessary to rely on taxis to get around. The city center sites are easily accessible.

The hotel is nice and strategic in the middle of KL city, with spacious rooms that are comfy enough for a small family, but slightly outdated. The service is overall friendly but needs to improve attention to detail. The location is convenient and close to attractions, including shopping areas and eating spots. The dining experience may not cater well to all dietary preferences. The facilities are decent but could use some updates.

The hotel doesn't seem to have changed much in the last 20 years; the rooms were in poor condition, with old furniture and inadequate facilities. We could hear conversations from the adjoining room, and there were reports of cockroaches in room 1212. Despite some friendly service, demanding tips and inconsistent communication were noted. The location was convenient for shopping and close to public transportation but lacked some cleanliness in dining areas.

Overall, my stay at this hotel had its ups and downs. The location is fantastic, near Sogo and Jalan TAR for convenient shopping but lacks a bit of modern touch. The rooms, however, were disappointing, smaller in size and with a double bed instead of a king, though clean and budget-friendly. The dining options were good with local varieties, but the lack of vegetarian choices, especially for Indian visitors, was noticeable.
