            Even though they didn't give any locker to put your things, each bed is covered by curtain. Thus, it is safe to keep you belonging and it is very privacy. The toilets space is limited and please bring your own toiletries. BTW, if you want a great sleep experience, do bring along an earplug. Overall, don't have much to complaint as the price is very reasonable compare to others.

            The worst accommodation I had in Malaysia”

            1 shared room with approx. 20 beds, bed sheets dirty, bathroom as well and the best: they will fully charge you the RM 10 tax added to the price Agoda is showing - they are obviously cheating! Never again.

            FULL of mosquitoes. No fans for your bed and the central AC isn't cold enough.

            Worse Hostel”

            + Staffs are nice and really helpful + Location is great and near to almost with everything. - Bed, pillow smell like a sweat - Toilet never been cleaned - Noisy - The worst part is there's one crazy guy stay next to my bed. He talking by himself. Accused me with "talking s#it" about him. Pick a fight with me from the day he enter the hostel until I check out.
