Service
1
Service is frequently praised (Anika, Ain, receptionist, 'staff here is so friendly'), but there are a few reports of unfriendly reception staff and one inconvenient incident with a broken lift causing cancellation.

1
Location is convenient and near town/food, but several reviews complain about severe night-time noise from traffic and motorbikes (noisy until 3–5am), reducing location comfort.
Room Quality
1
Rooms are described as clean and comfortable by some, but issues include only one plug point, thin walls (poor soundproofing), uneven toilet floor causing puddles, and some rooms lacking windows.
Amenities
1
Guests report limited amenities: only one power outlet in rooms, broken lift on multiple occasions, parking far from hotel, weak water pressure, and no visible hotel signage.
Value for Money
1
Multiple comments call it a budget hotel and 'worth the money' — reasonable pricing and basic facilities make it good value for budget travelers despite shortcomings.
Food and Beverage

No direct mentions of hotel food or beverage service; guests only note proximity to external food options.
Overall Experience
1
Mixed overall experience: friendly staff and clean rooms for some, but noise, limited amenities and at least one cancelled booking due to a broken lift created inconvenience for others.

Pros:

Decent location and close to MRL and LRT stations.

Cons:

There was an ant infestation in the room and cockroaches in the hallway. The bed and towels were a bit dirty with hair on them. Only 1 lift and it's slow.

For a budget hotel near the city metro, this hotel provides convenient, clean, basic facility.
Cons:

Too Noisy at night time till 4am as motorists roaring across the road Raja Laut. If you are not an easy-sleep person, you might consider more quiet & peaceful accommodation in KL. To gain the good sleep & rest, I would like to pay more for other choices of hotels in KL.
