Reviewer Type: Family With Children
Travel Purpose: leisure
Positive: The location was great, right at China town. It was helpful to have a 7/11 underneath. Beds were comfortable. Sheets and towels were clean. Shower was hot. Check in was easy (self check in) Nice roof terrace to relax on with fans and charging outlets. For us it was ideal for an overnight stay or a short stay for us as a family.
Negative: Rooms were a bit dark due to very small windows. Bath room was very small and cramped.
Summary: Great location for overnight stay in KL
