Ahyu Hotel

Amazing value for money in terms of a clean room in an unbeatable location. Just around the corner from Masjid Jamek station, surrounded by south Asian eateries and shops, 10-15 mins' walk from Chinatown, Central Market, etc. We requested a room with a window and still got a very quiet room in spite of being in such a busy location. A/C worked great. No weird smells in the room. Good pressure in shower. Very importantly, they provide a water dispenser on the top floor! Love this set up, more hotels should do this instead of providing small plastic water bottles in your room.

The room was fine as it was clean, smelled OK and although it wasn't big it wasn't too small either. The hotel was in a great location and I could easily walk to Chinatown, Little India and Dataran Merdeka. There was also an LRT station just around the corner which I used to visit other areas of Kuala Lumpur. The staff were friendly and accommodating and took care of my laundry and gave me good advice about the area. I slept great despite having a room above the street and near the elevator so my room was reasonably soundproof. Internet worked fine as well.

Staff were incredible, location was great. Was able to walk from the premises to KL Tower, Bukit Bintang, Jalan Alor etc, and honestly, value for money was pretty great! They also had a small "shop" downstairs that sold water, drinks, noodles. Lobby was staffed 24/7, which was great for security.

It is located next to so many indian restaurants which was very convenient for us. Also the hotel has good ambience and its very welcoming. They didnt cost us too much, so I would recommend it as a good place valuable for the money spent. Also its in the walking distance to some of the famous shopping sites like Central Market, Petalling street etc.

The rooms are big enough, almost enough for one person, and have a separate shower area. That means you don't flood the whole bathroom. Unfortunately, card payments weren't possible, but there is an ATM machine nearby. Remember that you have to pay a tourist surcharge of 10MYR per night and there is another 50MYR as a deposit. But you will of course get that back. If you want your room cleaned, please ask at reception. There are enough small shops in the area if you are hungry. There is even a McDonalds and KFC if you are in a hurry. I was able to get almost everywhere on foot, and I used GRAB for the rest. There is also a metro station just around the corner. I can't say whether there is a 24-hour reception, but it was always manned when I passed by. The internet was really fast and stable, which was really good.
