    I had a very pleasant experience at the Hostel, the view is wonderful, the staff is kind and attentive, the structure of the building is great with an infinity pool, laundry, mini market. The Hostel was full of backpackers, so it was great to socialize and meet new people. The location is very privileged, close to the train station and 5 minutes walking distance to the shopping mall.

    Honestly a bang for your buck. Its a super affordable hostel that has a very nice swimming pool. They have the normal bunk beds if you're on a tight budget but they also have curtained bunk beds with slightly wider beds if you're looking for something a little more private at a slightly higher price(very much worth it). They sell food and drinks, and the laundry machines are cheaper than regular laundromats. Getting around is easy since public transport is near. The staff are great, the guests are great. No regrets

    ARH home KLCC is only ten-minute walking from the Twin Towers. It is located in a safe and fancy local residence. The hostel is very clean and organized. Moreover, Raky, receptionist of the hostel, is a very nice, patient, and helpful person. I got a good vibe from the hostel and enjoyed my stay. I believe that it is one of the best hostels in Kuala Lumpur and is very budget-friendly to travelers.

    The property is exactly what we needed for a cheap stay in KL with a great location. The owner is really friendly and shared details for finding the place, and I think they were definitely needed as we struggled to find it initially, but it is accessible through a car park. The room is basic but does the job! would recommend for cheap hostel-style stay.

    Very unique place, a hidden gem for a traveller! The pool is amazing and just like in the pictures. The beds and sheets are very comfortable and it's nice to have AC. You can even do laundry here! Drinking water available. The area is very safe. Hot shower, tidy. Most budget hostels in KL are bad, so this is a very good deal. Many guests were fun and friendly, but when reading the reviews it looks like some expect luxury private hotel vibe but only want to pay hostel price. :D Therefore it's not only backpackers staying here.
