  Average hotel with good location but small rooms

  27 Aug 2019

  We stayed in twin rooms in this hotel for a couple of nights while visiting Kuala Lumpur. The location is great, next to a Metro station and walking distance of Chinatown (although you need to cross a main road via a bridge).The twin room was very small though. Just space for the single beds and just one little bed-side table. No room for storage, to put suitcases nor wardrobes.The bathroom was also pretty small. But overall the hotel has a modern look and rooms are kept clean.Breakfast is not offered but there is a cafe on the ground floor where you can order some food.Try to ask for a room that doesn't go to the main street, as it's a highway and the noise is constant (specially the lower the floor you are, we were in first floor and it was a bit silly).There is a nice common room with a couple of computers and some beanbags and pool that all guests can use.Overall it's a budget option and good location to explore.Beware check-in is not allowed before 2pm and they're very strict with it. Also some of the desk staff are not very helpful.

  Like Sleeping in the motorhome

  Its kinda small and 100 percent simplistic design. Even the flooring was left unpainted cement surface with original grey color. But the toilet is comfy. Same goes with its bed. Notwithstanding the environment was noisy. Traffic sounds was annoying. Difficult to get free parking. It was located beside a busy main road heading to busy KL areas. No free drinking water or wse.

  I had always wanted to stay here...because it is near the China Town..but as always it is fully booked...if you want it at the last minute...So in order not to disappoint yourself... try to book early..as early as possible..

  Not worth for the money

  The Location, Maharaja Leela is in half way between KL Central and Bukit Bintang. Pure Indian Veg Food is not available nearby.The Free WiFi is not working properly.The Lady Receptionist was always Rigid, Rude and Unfriendly. The Management has not provided the International adapter temperorily even after the payment of security deposit. They are insisting us to purchase the adapter and market it.Over and above the bed charges per day, they are charging 10myr Malaysia Tourism Charges even for Dorm room Even though it is not applicable for Dorm beds which is a type of Hidden Cost. Here after i won't stay here.
