A hostel in the heart of the city, close to KL Sentral and Little India. A lively and busy place with all the basic amenities. Perfect location and ideal for active backpackers. But be warned, if you are looking for a place to relax and sleep, this is definitely not for you because you will hear Punjabi music all night long at full volume from your roommates who do not want to respect the hostel's quiet time from 11pm to 8am. There's a cozy cafe downstairs with a nice vibe and the staff is friendly.
