"Decent hotel with Excellent views. I would recommend the breakfast because it has amazing views. I would recommend against ordering room service due to cold food arriving and poor quality. We had to have food redone, and had to dispute room charges after being double charged. For the price point ithe hotel should do better. i would only recommend for one night because of the Excellent views if booking a tower view."

"I didn’t feel good about the city of Kuala Lumpur at first. First the couple invited me there did not show up. Airport signs were confusing. Taxi drivers didn’t take Visa or Master cards and a guys wanted to charge me 20 Ringgit from Berjaya Times Square to Holiday Inn Express city center only about 10-15 minutes of walking distance. It took me 4 hours finally getting to the hotel from the airport thanks to all these confusion. I pissed so much and wanted to leave the country immediately. But Bakesh soothed me. He calmed me down and guided me patiently to finish my two days tour by staying in your place comfortably. I appreciate his hospitality and eventually started to enjoy the tour during my staying there. It really wonderful and I love it though lots of setbacks."
