Taman Merdeka Holidays from AU$708

Booked a 2-night stay in a 3-bedroom apartment. Check-in was simple. There was just 1 guy standing near the perpetually crowded lobby giving out the keycard and his command of English wasn’t great. Good enough to tell you that you would be held responsible for any violation of house rules. Additional keycards required a further deposit of RM200, so cough up if you’re travelling in a big group and need flexibility. 1 parking lot allocated per apartment. What was advertised as a 3-bedroom apartment was more like a 2-bedroom and one makeshift room. The third room was converted into a bedroom using a sliding door with tinted glass. Zero privacy, claustrophobic, no windows and poor ventilation (musky smell). Totally could not meet our needs and we had to quickly search for an additional room in a hotel nearby incurring additional costs. There were only 2 bathrooms and not 3 as advertised. Other than that, the apartment was clean and well-furnished. WiFi was not working initially but we were given a fresh password and that was solved. Lifts were slow and we never knew when it would arrive because there were no displays showing which floor the lifts were at. Swimming pool was crowded and not enough deck chairs. In summary, this is an apartment for rent in a good location. You get what you pay for, but we didn’t appreciate the 2-bedroom being marketed as a 3-bedroom with 3 bathrooms. Won’t be coming back.

Very good location

I was lucky to be the only one amongst the 4 of us that had a room booked to get a lovely view of the Petronas towers. Because everything else in the room was old and falling apart. The sockets were coming out of the wall, the bedding had holes and foundation stains in them, the bathroom had mold and paint coming off the ceiling. the shower door wouldn't close and it looked like it had grime all over the tiles and walls...it was probably bleached so badly the colour had gone. Bath mat did not get changed at all during my 7 night stay, no hand/face towels for the first few days, then changing them was hit and miss, and at some point they took them away and not replaced them...bath towels were really old, had gone from white to some dirty grey, again with holes in them and at some point when replaced they had hair from other people. It is a very convenient hotel if you have business going on in the centre, and the view I got was lovely, but that aside it needs some serious renovation.

Staff not friendly. Room there was no hand face towels, buggy service is good but get in and out from buggy bit difficult for disabled people.
