Was that a backpack hotel? Even worse, compared with the money that we paid. RM90++ with a family room, with no water boiling facility, insufficient lighting, small bad receiving TV, and the worse, the bed with extremely low quality matress and pillows.

The station itself has been recently renovated in anticipation of running frequent trains to/from Kuala Lumpur as part of the KTMB's double-tracking and electrification project (starting mid-2009?). The hotel is an interesting place to... more
