Property Description

PODs The Backpackers Home & Cafe provides affordable budget accommodation for backpackers and travelers. Our spacious common area offers a cozy and relaxing atmosphere with a cafe offering a range of beverages such as coffee, tea, beers and more. We are an eco-friendly venture, we use metallic straws, paper bags and we are doing our best to reduce the consumption of single-use plastic. We have our own rooftop where our guests can chill and hang out with each other!

Our location is in Kuala Lumpur, just a stone throw away from KL Sentral station, a hub where most of trains and buses are in and out of the city giving easy access to many major attractions as well as to both airports, KLIA and KLIA2. Housed in a new building in Brickfields with abundant choices of local food around and the fusion of colorful cultures, trinkets and merchandise traders. PODs is also situated in an area where lots of government and religious centers focus on the development of the less fortunate, such as the deaf and blind community and orphanages.

Our private PODs offer privacy away from the dormitories. The private PODs have mattresses on raised platforms to give a Zen like feel. Some come with tinted window, all have wardrobe/bedside table, individual fan and light. Our dorms have double bunk beds, individual power sockets, individual lockers and with decent personal space. Each floor has two or three sharing kampong (village) design hot water shower cabins. Central AC units are placed strategically with blowers to all PODs and all designs and themes are chosen to compliment and promote our eco-friendly theme, which is to be simple and always go green. And when traveling, respect the Earth!

PODs always values the important things travelers or backpackers need hence we provide free WiFi, clean linen and towel, luggage storage, and most importantly, lots of fun and interesting activities! Our prices range between that affordable shared dormitories and reasonable private PODs, with a promise of clean, friendly and hospitable services just like home!

I wish I could have stayed here longer! My partner and I stayed in a private room with an en-suite bathroom. The bed was quite firm but it was clean and secure. The bathroom was clean and traditional. The breakfast is substantial and tasty! Staff is knowledgeable and helpful. The vibes are great and there’s a comfy smoking area outside. Expectations of guests are expressed and are reasonable. This hostel provides and encourages social activities. I would absolutely stay again!

I stayed here with my wife and loved it. The atmosphere was wonderful, the staff was friendly and the rooms, washrooms and lounge areas were clean and relaxing. Very close to the train station an easy to get everywhere we wanted to go. Don't forget the amazing karaoke we heard during the CNY celebrations. I would recommend to any traveller. We need a 10 start rating options! We will definitely be back
