Avoid this hotel
I got carried away by the name of the hotel and also the photos on the website ! Considering the excellent location of the hotel, the apathy of the owners in maintenance & upkeep of this property is shocking. I strongly urge readers to AVOID this hotel inspite of the attractive price tag. Unless you have to stay compulsorily in Masjid Jamek, especially in the same location that the hotel is situated, I will certainly request the readers of this review to reconsider and hop on to other hotels in the vicinity without spending too much time looking at the photos on the site which are deceiving and in contrast to reality. I end this review without mentioning the poor wifi connectivity, depressed look of the rooms etc. so as not to waste time.

Awful
Had booked a superior double room but no window and small room. Bed took up most of the room. Dont know how 2 people could manage in the room. Room cleaned only if specifically requested. No jug to heat water for tea/coffee. No bed light. Had to get up to turn light off at wall. Good location close to MRT. Better value elsewhere at that price.

Shocking Rooms!!!
Do you want to stay in a room that has the following characteristics? - a shaking bed and mattress spring poking your back - a removable toilet seat - a non-adjustable water heater temperature – either too cool or hot - a safety deposit box could not be used and you will be charged if really wanted to use it - a room with window but the curtain could not be fully opened I know this is a budget hotel but didn’t know it was this bad. Also, I had clearly stated requesting for a quiet room and made a call to the hotel and received a confirmation from Mr Heri, I was given a room facing the main road. The hotel was not fully booked. On a positive note, the room was clean and no unpleasant smell. Air-con was cool but noisy. TVs had 5 channels of which 2 were local channels. In Malaysia, we have 7 free local channels. The only thing working perfectly was the main power supply as you could not use any card to switch on the power. Also, I didn’t know why the hotel opened all the unoccupied rooms doors. A room deposit RM50 was required. I will not return for a second stay even complimentary. This was the fastest hotel that I checked out at 7am.

Location is fantastic. Right off the train. Very walkable area! Hotel was okay. Service slow, have to leave a 50 cash deposit, room had no window even though I selected room with window. Air con was noisy, water cooler only gave hot water. Room was fine, served it's purpose, nothing fantastic

My experience
The hotel used to be much better around two years ago. Maybe because it was kind of new. but now it's run down, and I don't think they want to invest much in fixing all that is wrong the rooms, bathrooms, pest control etc... Also too expensive for what it is especially considering the neighbouring competition.
