the most disgusting hostel i ever stayed in 14+ countries i visited! the rooms were so dang smelly and disgusting couldn’t even sleep properly. plus they dont provide any luggage storage lockers
Everyone was sick in my room, really hot and a lot of older people too
One of the worst Hostels I've been to. All people there were weird and the vibe there was wicked. Whatever happened there, only the Lord knows.
Worst Female Employee
Says that he can change my booking date but didn't tell me about the extra rm40 charges. If I know I need to pay extra I might have cancel the booking. Not a trustworthy Chinese guy with spectacle. The pods backpackers bad staff. With rm115 paid I can get a hotel room instead of a hostel.
The location is convenient and good if you’re flight is getting in late. Other than that I would not recommend this hostel for travellers. We had an incident with another guest and as female travellers didn’t feel safe at all. The issue wasn’t handled well or sensitively by the hostel so we ended up moving. It’s not that clean and seems to be used as a cheap place to live rather than a hostel. This isn’t a major problem, however it created a strange atmosphere. It’s okay for one nigh...
BED BUG ALERT Stay away from this hostel! This is the worst hostel I have stayed in during my 3 months of traveling. My body was completely eaten up by bites after I spent one night in this building. Wish I could attach pictures to this review. It was also clearly a leakage somewhere. I came back to the hostel in the afternoon to a pond of water in the middle of the room. It was a heavy rain, but I didn’t even had the window open and nothing was wet around the window area. The incredible bad ...
Do not stay here. Especially if you are a girl or a group of girls. Only weirdos here. No AC, broken toilets and showers, not clean.
The receptionist is extremely rude. When I ask a question, she replied sarcastically. I came for a vacation and not to argue. Not worth for money. Greeting with smile is important and assisting tourist is thier job, not being arrogant. Will not come here again.
don't go!!! i really don't give negative reviews but still place literally stinks. it seems like floor is not cleaned for years, beds are very uncomfortable and no hostel atmosphere at all. the stuff is more busy in watching YouTube. internet doesn't work in dorm and no ac after 8 in morning.

Little space. Very cold ac in the dorm, not possible to adjust the temp, it was on the coldest. Most people were locals, long term workers, that does not respect others. I was in a female dorm, someone had their alarm on at 02 at night, they snoozed many times at nighttime. Made a lot of noise. Didnt sleep at all. Uncomfortable bed, next to two big windows, so mmit got even colder. I had to wear a jacket at night. Only 2 showers and toilets on the whole floor. Would not recommend for backoackers

A decent option for a short stay in KL where you want to be near the Sentral station. Otherwise for longer stays pick a hostel with activities and a more social atmosphere. You get aircon, drinking iwater, storage locker, curtain but bring a towel. Room is small for 8 beds but price is cheap. Good eating everywhere nearby at all hours.
Good location. Not far from KL Sentral. I chose a single room. It had a window. The cheaper ones may not. Filtered water available. Lots of mainly Indian eating places nearby. PODs suited me fine. I would stay there again.
gute lage, sauber
How are you doing, Sauber?
Not really backpackers' hostel - a lot of locals living there long-term, which made me feel unsafe. Good location close to KL Sentral, room (female dorm) was small, most of staff friendly
Not a backpackers vibe, full of locals
Great hostel. Very secure. Showers are brilliant. Friendly staff and nice little cafe downstairs you can chill in with some kitchen facilities. Location right next to KL sentral is very handy
C’est une super auberge, le personnel est au top, il y a un grand espace de collectivité en bas où vous pouvez aussi vous poser pour manger, travailler etc, les dortoirs sont grands, ventilés mais pas climatisés, il y a des lockers pour vos affaires.
This is a super hostel, the staff is on top, there is a large community space downstairs where you can also sit down to eat, work etc, the dormitories are large, ventilated but not air conditioned, there are lockers for your belongings.
Nice hostel, but the private room we stayed in didn’t have any aircon
overall good experience, location is great!
Mega gute Lage und ein tolles Rooftop! Für die Schliessfächer sollte man nur vielleicht ein eigenes Schloss dabeihaben:)
For the Schliessfächer one should just maybe have one's own Schloss with one:)
Staff were rude. No age limit in the hostel so felt quite uncomfortable. Got bitten in the night with marks all over my legs. Lockers don’t lock
I stayed in the private room because I was going to be coming in really late from the airport. While it’s nice that they have a self-check in option for people arriving after 2am, when I arrived the bed had clumps of hair on it and stains all over the sheets. The air conditioning was also extremely cold with no way to turn it off, so I had to sleep in multiple layers. The showers got warm but smelled like someone was routinely pissing in them. For the price of the private room I expected bette...

My time here was amazing. Jas eleanor and lisa are the best.
Decent hostel. Not really an athmosphere but will do for a layover. Room had a very strong smell. A lot of long staying workers there it seems. Located in little India. Location was very good only 5 min from the station!
I recommend very friendly !
Betten waren wer sehr klein und eng
The beds were very small and tight.
A good place very calme and a good location.
