パサール・セニ駅至近で交通の便が良く、中華街もすぐそばなので観光の拠点にするにも良い立地だと思います。一方で、中華街に近い分、夜まで外の音が聞こえます。私は問題ありませんでしたが、人によっては気になるかもしれません。スタッフの対応は良かったです。私が宿泊した部屋はシングル窓なしエアコン付、シャワートイレ共同。設備や綺麗さは値段相応、という感じです。宿名の通り、壁には熱帯雨林の壁紙がはられていました。

Cheap hotel nearby MRT station
The location is great, very close to the MRT Pasar Seni (Exit 16A) and Petaling Street (ChinaTown). One of the reception staff is really friendly and can speak a little Mandarin. The hotel is so clean and rates are inexpensive.

Good for travelling on a budget!
I enjoyed my stay here however, it is very basic. The room was quite small and had no window. The staff were friendly and welcoming and helped me even book transfers to and from the hotel.
The bed was comfy and clean and the room had Aircon which worked well.
One of the only things I didn't like, was that it was quite noisy but I think this was simply because of the others staying in the hotel at the time.
If you are travelling on a low budget, this hotel is great for just that but maybe not if you are expecting anything more luxurious.

Overall good stay.
The hotel was lovely .. nice decor and design. The shower and toilet rooms were clean and tidy. Lovely rainforest decorated area to sit in and talk to other travellers. Unfortunately our bed sheets were not clean and were full of hair. And there was a rat running around in the common area.. however I have gotten used to rats being pretty much everywhere in asia so this wasnt to alarming. I would stay again. The location was right by china town and a street market... 7/11 just around the corner. Purple bus into the city centre and to the towers is free.. bus stop close to hotel.

I was upset with teh room space. It is too small, also, there are mosquitoes in the room although I have informed the receptionist about this. The toilets are not clean. In addition, I felt I was deceived either by the booking agency or the hotel, the charge me 10RM per night for tourism fee. I have learned that they should charge this fee from the tourists, but Expedia did not show such fee when I reserved the rooms, while other hotels in Expedia shows such fees.

It really felt like a rainforest hotel...
This hotel (- or hostel, i would say) is best suitable for packpackers who have already travelled in Asia. Does not meet the European standards of cleaniness. We had a double room with a bathroom, which i recommend to take - for the price it did not make a big difference. Don't expect daily cleaning even if stated in your booking portal (we stayed 4 nights and the room was not cleaned even once). AC was propably never cleaned and it blowed directly to the bed, which I found annoying. And even if we didn't have a window in the room, we had mosquitos and small worms in the room... In the evenings there were weird noices not only from the neighbours but from above too: sounded like there was a monkey in the upstaires (?!?). Other than that very quiet hotel, so no party people around :) The common terrace was very nice in the evenings, that was a big +. They also had a microwave and a fridge for common use. Drinking water available all over +. Convenient location with a short distance to the night markets.

Midden in Chinatown
Simpele kamer met badkamer. Ik had een raamloze kamer, maar het bed was goed en ik heb er prima geslapen. Beetje behelpen met de douche, kleine ruimte met handdouche. Leuk buitenzitje aan de voorkant. Gratis drinkwatertap en gebruik van koelkast en magnetron. Vlakbij de Petaling markt met veel goedkope spullen en restaurantjes. Supermarkt vlakbij, evenals openbaar vervoer. Metro op 4 minuten lopen, pasar Seni. Vriendelijk personeel. Stadsplattegrond verkrijgbaar aan de balie.
