I stayed in Kuala Lumpur for Ayurveda. It was close to KL Sentral Station so I stayed there for 4 nights. I booked a private room with a window. The air conditioner doesn't seem to work inside the room so the sunlight is strong and it's very hot during the day. Laundry dries well. Some staff are kind but some are very unkind. The shower room was spacious and good. Only body soap is provided so bring your own shampoo and conditioner. I heard that towels are changed every day, but some staff said that "room cleaning and linen change are only once every 4 days." Some guests had a strong body odor that filled the elevator. Even when passing by them in the hallway, they gave off a very strong odor, so I felt that it was very unclean to have to change it once every 4 days. It was relatively quiet at night. The fan in the room can be adjusted to 5 levels and I never felt hot when sleeping. However, the fan is loud so it's a good idea to bring earplugs. It's a good location and a facility that I can recommend if you're just going to sleep. Don't expect too much.

1. Great location. Right on the passage and down from KL CENTRAL. Any metro line and monorail come from here, and buses from the airport also come here. 2. Wi-Fi is available in all areas and rooms, which is rare. 3. The owner is very responsive and will always tell you where to go or go. That's where the good ends. The staff and Malaysian citizens will not tell you anything. Because they either do not know or do not want to. They are angry that I do not know English well, especially the Indians who serve on the streets and in stores. The room for women is 2 * 2, where there are 4 old beds without hangers. There is a persistent smell of human stench. I lived for 5 days and not once did they change the linen for the washers, which also stank. No ventilation. I was forced to go to the common room for 1 night, where there is more space and there are windows!!! The floors are clean, but like everywhere in Asia this is due to the soil, which has no sand or dust, so it is easy to wave the floors with a rag. And on the ceiling and walls there are century-old cobwebs, on the cabinets there is dust. But I repeat, this is everywhere in Asia. In short, it is very unfriendly and alien to Europeans here (I am talking about Malaysia)
