We really enjoyed the stay and returned twice during our trip in Asia. The staff are friendly and helpful- going the extra mile to assist in every way. The rooms are small but comfortable and clean. Air con is great. The atmosphere is positive and friendly. Love the little terrace. It is close to facilities, food, shops and trains etc.... loved it. The only downside is the narrow stairs if you are on the fourth floor!!!! But we coped. Highly recommended.

We loved the Rainforest. It was in a nice quiet location which was in walking distance to the main malls of the Golden Triangle and the Menora Tower. Very clean, beautiful room, very friendly staff and breakfast was good as well. No downsides!

I have stayed in many hostels in different countries. This one is probably the best one I have ever stayed. Like the Chinese style decorations very much.

The family room was a great value and a big room. The shower was a little dangerous - but clean and nice. Great location close to the monorail.

Best place in town, quite, clean and safe, also great location. Just a walk away to Changkat Bukit Bintang, the best night life spot in KL. The staff are very friendly and helpful. Definitely will stay there again...

Great B&B. The beds are fine though the breakfast is rather light. Also they don't exchange the towels during the stay, but if you go to the reception they will happily supply fresh ones, so it's not really a problem. Good place, if you go there, you won't regret it.

Excellent boutique hostel in a prime location in bukit bintang. Excellent staffing and clean facilities really made my stay worthwhile. If you need a place to crash that's near to a monorail station and the main bits in KL, choose this place. They're very friendly too.

Hostel was amazing. The family room was large enough to accommodate all 4 of us, and it was spacious with a nice tv. The common kitchen was clean; not many guests use it. Walking distance to all the pubs and good restaurants, and the main shopping area.

I was truly impressed by the Rainforest B&B and would certainly return if I were ever to be in KL again. It's staff are very helpful and pleasant they even let me use their internet after I had checked out! Bedrooms are a good size with working AC, and TV all areas very clean which is a priority for me. They have a communal area with a fridge, stove, microwave so you can cook etc. Location is excellent 5 mins from the Raja Chunal monorail stop and 30 mins walking distance to the Petronas.

It was a nice hostel/hotel to stay in, the staff was polite and helpful also the breakfast was good. overall we had a very nice stay here. ( only downside is that there where no windows in the room but you will only be there to sleep so it\'s not a big deal enough to see all day in KL ).

This hostel had a good feel to it. My husband and I got a private room en suite and the bathroom was very nice. The only thing I didn't like about the rooms was that there weren't any windows in the room or ventilation from the bathroom. So the room was very musty and smelled kinda funky from having no fresh air. In order to get the smell down we HAD to turn on the a/c even though we didn't need it. Other then that it was a great breakfast and in a good location close to everything.

An excellent choice in KL. The building is beautifully decorated with greenery, and the rooms have wood floors, TVs, electronic safes, electronically-operated locks, and high-quality linens/mattresses. Everything is very clean, and the staff was helpful, even after I checked out. They offer safe luggage storage but charge for the service, which is disappointing. A safe bet and good value place.
