Pods The Backpackers Home & Cafe, Kuala Lumpur.

Unclaimed

I've been there during Christmas for my second time and I really enjoyed it. The staff is really friendly, the hang out area downstairs is nice and with aircon. They also improved a lot of things from my first to my second stay for example it was now possible to close the door from the dorm room which is really important for me. The hostel is also really clean.

8/10. It was a great place for a solo traveler female. It was safe and very clean. Would definitely rent again when i’m in KL. Pro: - The receptionist guy was really sweet and helpful. - The rooms were clean and sheets are changed daily. - The beds were comfortable. - The rooftop has an amazing view - The rooms and the alleys are always so cold (bring an extra hoodie just in case) - The bathroom is clean and has heater - Loved the lobby area, has water dispenser, microwave, fridge and cups (could bring your 3 in 1 sachets if you like) - Strategic location (2min walk to kl sentral monorel) - Very easy accesible to food (24hr food and convenience stores) - Able to put your luggage even after checking out - the rate of luggage storage is RM10 per bag for one day if you aren’t staying Con: - There’s only 2 bathrooms per level and one sink, would be a problem if every room is occupied - There’s no lock in the locker. Would suggest to buy 2 locks, one for your bag if it doesnt fit the locker and one for your personal belongings in your locker. - Only body wash is in the shower - No towel provided for the dormitory, charged RM5 i guess - The noise from the road might disrupt your sleep - There isn’t a mirror in the dormitory so you gotta walk all the way to the bathroom, abit inconvienent - The housekeeping lady is passive aggressive, completely misunderstood me but didn’t even apologize. Heard her talking shit about me on call to the receptionist guy and confronted me rudely - The rooftop is abit scary to go alone at night
