Kuala Lumpur Hostel review: Matahari Lodge

It was great there!I traveled with my girl freind and we stayed there, we only really wanted a place to crash whilst we explored the city and round about, granted the rooms are pretty basic we had everything we needed and wanted. We had a good internet service that was cheap and flexible (your given an hour's access which you didnt have to use in one session, you could go and come back) there was ample laundry fercilities, food storage and kitchen area was great and a great lounge area to relax which included a balconey area with ample seating and cover all regularly tended to. As for the showers, taking into account they are shared there were more than enough for each floor ( we never once had to wait for a hot shower) with cold and hot water which was hot and reliable and maintained just as much as they were used with shower slippers provided if wanted. Location was brilliant, its right around the corner to the night market and the central market and the train station Pesi Seni (one stop from KL central where you get the main train to go to the international airport) is just accross the road, alot of the buses that can take you to some great locations are just around the corner as well. And as for the service........Lee, Man & Zac it was literally a home from home, we are speechless at how great those guys were they were just great people whom we considered our friends as did alot of the other guest but besides that to arange trips, taxi's, tickets, adjustments in accomadation, (we moved around alot but revisited KL a few times and each time we stayed there because 1. It was a great place 2. It was cheap and 3. They made our stay so easy) nothing was to much for them. The place was packed when we got there and throughout our stay everyone that was there that we met (which were a alot) said how much they were enjoying there stay there. It truly is a great place, if we every find ourselves back in that neck of the woods we'l be shore to go there and we'd recommend it to anyone heading to that area, hope you find this usefull and happy traveling!
