Please put a signboard do not smoke in the toilet / bathroom! There's no ventilation and I don't want to die as a passive smoker. Ask them to be civilised and smoke at the open bridge. Comfortable + private bed, close to Chinatown + eatery but quiet as it's underground You'll never find the hotel as the name is not being displayed anywhere. The hotel exists under LEO LEISURE HOTEL (you'll check in at the counter here) at the opposite of PACIFIC EXPRESS HOTEL, Chinatown. The assistant will bring you underground to your comfortable hostel. Many restaurants, shops within vicinity which you can explore. Big points for being in the middle of the city but because you're underground, the noises from outside are not that loud. I love the curtain for each bed for privacy. Very few hostels in Malaysia have this. However, the curtain only covers on the side. There's a net next to your bed so those who are next to your bed could see you - but you can get some hooks for the net and hang your clothes & towel. Strong Wi-Fi connection. I love the individual power source & light and the air conditioning. New and super clean toilet with water pipe + water heater. It is inside the individual bathroom.
