⭐️⭐️⭐️THE BEST BUDGET 2 STAR HOTEL THAT I HAVE FOUND TO DATE. I'VE BEEN VERY HAPPY HERE FOR 5 MONTHS (WITH EXCEPTIONS) ⭐️⭐️⭐️
This is an older practical "budget" Malaysian Chinese hotel with no frills (only the essentials) located on the main nerve in Chinatown... Jalan Sultan. But don't let the online price fool you. The hotel management has standards. There is a friendly guy from Burma juicing sugar cane (air tebu) right in front of the hotel. I've been his customer for 2 years now. Up/down the street and in the alleys are local style kopi shops, char siew + siew yoke stalls, wan tan mee production, Ray's Power Corner, plenty of vendors, places to eat... selling almost anything imaginable. Even bongs!!!😛
Remember to eat at Mee Tarik Jalan Sultan at the end of the road (Chinese Halal). She is the original.
Hotel Nang Yeang offers a spacious balcony on the right side with a spectacular view of Warison Merdeka 118. So the room doesn't feel like a box. The left side... ah well... KL Tower and Pudu🤷♂️ I walk out onto my balcony and see the newly built skyscraper upfront, close and personal. I don't know if this is a building or a rocket or a spaceship with lasers. That is how many features this structure has!!
The managers on staff are two lovely women, Ms. Chong❤️ and Ms. Eng❤️ who oversee the operations of the hotel. They make sure that the air conditioning units in the rooms are serviced regularly. And they have the maintenance staff paint the rooms and corridors.
Housekeeping is good enough... nice women from Indonesia. But if you stay longer than a week like regular tourists, live your life (have romantic interests) or have people sleep over that make noise during intimacy they will start spying and eavesdropping on you.🤣 CREEPY. And then your private information immediately gets uploaded to their tribal/kampung/village neural-link... blah blah blah blah. It happens in seconds. There is just no hope for these people. Their mouth and rude comments behind your back never closes. I understand it's in their DNA. They must know everything about everybody every second of the day to protect themselves. This must be a very old village habit. It also must be exhausting. It's also very sad to feel it is necessary to do that . Because I have a life and interests and they don't. They are only in pursuit of money or paper.
Housekeeping could do a more thorough job. A deeper clean. I've been here long enough to see the types of customers that check-in and how dirty they leave the rooms. I've never seen anything like it in the civilized world. A developing country is still considered civilized.
Lastly, the front desk staff is very warm and friendly (and they put up with me which is a bonus). What more could you ask for??
Except that guy at the front desk that works at 3 p.m. is an arrogant gossip and all around negative person. I've already spoken with management at length about those that concern me here.
✅️ I ATTEST THAT EVERYTHING I HAVE WRITTEN ABOVE IS TRUE.
