• Rashid (10/5): -
• Abu Bakar (9/5): - I like everything like place was nice and everything got in that room everything and staff was really nice and friendly I really enjoyed Yeah although there was smell always comes from toilet always even I bought some room freshness but stil...
• kim lee (10/5): - Meet my expectations. No table cloth for kitchen and pillows rather soft.
• Chong kok kong (9/5): -
• Hazrina (7/5): Definately will come back with new chepter good moments here - I really like the location but this time ive got no nice view 😭😭😭then i need to pay double cause got someting to settle there💔😭 Got little problem from the first room …air conditioner problem ( gas finish) but staff manage me to move in another room that upgrade to deluxe room studio
• Hazrina (7/5): Will come again - Location is really nice All staff respond good and deal good
• Sumathi (10/5): -
• Hazrina (8/5): -
• Josefine (6/5): War ok für seine Zweck - Hatte alles was man braucht. Super Pool! Handtücher sollte man selbst waschen, Deposit, Check in Check out über WhatsApp statt einem Counter (sind aber sehr schnell im antworten), Lift war kaputt, Sewige Wartezeiten (passiert). Roch nach Curry im Flur/Zimmer
• Shamilah (10/5): -
• Noé (8/5): -
• Hazrina (10/5): Place really cozy and relax expecialy for some one need me time and need place to settle some paperwork 🥰 - Like the most is place really near by Nu Central and easy to excess to other places and like the view too For now everything was perfect like I was expecting!
• Annis Syuhada (8/5): -
• Yap (10/5): - Good and comfortable stay
• Shanthene Sri (6/5): -
• Ming Huey (5/5): - 靠近我要去的目的地，安全措施还不错。 这已经是第三次入住了，第一次感觉挺好的，第二次厕所有很大的异味，第三次感觉地板黏哒哒的，而已烧热水器坏了也没换个给我，虽然冰箱电源修好，异味也很重，放了饮料也不敢喝。
• ALEKSANDR (9/5): Условия с депозитом надо пересматривать. - Расположение хорошее-в пешей доступности Центральный вокзал. Номер хорошо оборудован, в т.ч. кухня. Вполне качественный вариант для нескольких дней пребывания в Куала-Лампур. Не понравилось требование за несколько часов до заселения внести депозит 50 долларов именно банковским переводом. Туристы не всех стран могут сделать банковский перевод в незнакомой стране и не зная иностранные языки. Это очень большой недостаток! В моем случае удалось договорится о депозите наличными. Такие условия необходимо оговаривать заранее. Многих туристов это условие отпугнуло бы от бронирования.
• Ciara (10/5): Great Location and perfect for a short stay. - Key collection was pretty straightforward, although when I approached the person who I knew was waiting for me to tell him my name, he waved me off, I then waited 10 mins until he approached me and asked for my name. Was a little clunky but otherwise no issue. The lifts are super slow, so just make sure you budget in some extra time to get places. The pool was unfortunately closed due to emergency maintenance Nov 25. But that can't be helped.
• Sigrid (7/5): Dürftige Kommunikation - Die Lage in unmittelbarer Nähe zum Hauptbahnhof KL SENTRAL ist top. Auch bei der Ausstattung und Sauberkeit des Zimmers gibt es nichts auszusetzen. Die Kommunikation mit dem Ansprechpartner via WhatsApp war sehr dürftig. Die Antworten kamen erst Stunden später und diese waren dann auch noch dazu sehr dürftig: Sie wurden immer nur teilweise beantwortet. Die Notwendigkeit eine Kaution zu hinterlegen ist sehr kompliziert, gerade wenn man kurzfristig bucht. Offiziell gibt es nur die Möglichkeit einer Banküberweisung, was bei internationalen Gästen nicht möglich ist. Erst nach mehrfacher Rückfrage und Vorschlägen unsererseits wurde eine Barkaution angeboten. Wir waren am Tag der Anreise bereits vorort und konnten nicht einchecken weil die Check-in Infos erst kommen wenn die Kaution hinterlegt wurde. Die Rückerstattung der Kaution wurde am Abend vor Abreise abgewickelt. Zusammenfassend: Wir hatten in Kuala Lumpur schon wesentlich bessere Erfahrungen mit Check-In und Kommunikation gemacht.
• Nathan (10/5): -
• PETER (8/5): Overall was good - Lift to slow/too many people using only 4 lifts
• Moses (8/5): - Views
• Swapan Kumar (8/5): -
• NCO1 (5/5): - Emplacement Personnel stressant
• Tanzina (10/5): I enjoyed the stay - Location and cleanliness Love it all
• Amir (9/5): -
• Citramunira (9/5): Penginapan terbaik - Bilik kondusif dan selesa...terbaik
• john (4/5): Ok for backpackers, not 80 year old tourists just coming from the Marriott Hotel, - at the end of rental at least there was communication on Whatsapp. no hot water to the basin, 49 floors too many creating time wastage, lack of english speaking representatives.
• Ng (8/5): -
• Swapan Kumar (8/5): -
• PAYET (9/5): je recommande - la piscine est fabuleuse et l'emplacement au top avec la station de métro pas très loin dommage que le ménage ne soit pas fait au mois une fois par semaine
• Wong (10/5): -
• LAXMI PRASAD (5/5): -
• Gopy_73 (9/5): A night @ The Riv - High floor unit with spectacular city view and pool, enjoyed the stay. Walking distance to NU Sentral and nearby places. Have parking lot within the property which is great!! Waiting time for lifts at peak time during chk-in period. To improve the service for check-in process with detailed instruction.
• low (10/5): -
• Ashwin (10/5): Exceptional -
• Anis (10/5): Exceptional -
• Hari (10/5): Exceptional -
• Rais (9/5): LURVEEE SLEEPY BEAR - I enjoy my stay for 3 days 2 night. Hence, I add one more night there. I doesn't like how they can built only 4 lift for 54 floor? it really take time to use the lift
• Hazrina (10/5): Exceptional -
• David (8/5): Very good -
• Rahimi (7/5): Good -
• Antany (8/5): Very good -
• Anna (10/5): Exceptional -
• Josh (8/5): Overall pretty good - + Super comfy clean room + AC/fan worked great + Free access to gym/pool area/work centre + Good location for transport links and restaurants + Kitchenette had everything you needed + Good value - check-in/checkout was harder than it needed to be - cash deposit awkward - admin staff disorganised (but responsive to be fair) - building can be busy with lifts / communal facilities - after about a week in the first room it had an electric fault and I had to change rooms, 2nd room was way better than the first - no shared entrance, no weird smell, much better view on a higher floor. So will kind of depend on what room you get.
• Janice (7/5): Good -
• Majumder (9/5): Superb - Location, value for money No waste basin in bathroom
• Desmond (4/5): Disappointing -
• Balasubramanian (10/5): Exceptional - Location and the facilities in room . Customer care support Can accept depositby card
• Guat (1/5): Place is good but deposit arrangement just prior to check in sucks !! - Clean, comfy BUT was asked to pay deposit via transfer to bank account in Malaysia just the day before check in!! Should have been alerted during booking !! When I get back the deposit I lost SGD20 as staff said any bank charges will be bear my me!!! So anyone who wants to make booking, please note of this EXTRA cost !! The deposit via bank transfer sucks with bank charges all bear by ME!!!
• Kmwqj (7/5): Good -
• Meshari (9/5): Close to KL Sentral - Comfy bed, nice view, and other necessities were provided. Lobby is gated plus security is top. I'll definitely consider coming again in the future god willing. And thanks to Mr Sujan. Nothing besides sticky floor.
• Tan (7/5): Quite a hassle checking-in. Overall room facilities are good & adequate - Not applicable Check-in procedure
• Nurul (8/5): Very good -
• Krishnaveni (7/5): Please change the mattress -
• Kim (7/5): Good - Lovely clean comfortable apartment with everything you need for your stay. Amazing roof top pooll with great views over the city. Gym. Good location. Short walk to shops and restaurants. Stressful check in/ check out. Poor communication with staff as they don't reply through Booking.com, only using WhatsApp which is difficult if you don't have WiFi. Lifts are very busy. Also there is a 200RM deposit which you are not aware of until after making the booking

• Gregory (10/5): Exceptional -
• Kirill (10/5): Exceptional -
• Pathy (10/5): First choice in KL Central -
• Azhan (9/5): Over my expectation - quiet area, comfort room/bed, great location. Many plus points. - The room cleanliness, the interior design, the bathroom & kitchen locations. The view outside the window, especially at night. The view from level 53A (roof top), extremely beautiful + the pool. The location is perfect, very close to the Tun Sambathan monorail station. Alternatively, 5 minutes walk to the KL Sentral (KL Main station), a big shopping mall (NU Sentral) and various restaurants. A mosque is also nearby for muslims (about 100 meters away). The room is very quiet. The bed with clean and and comfy mattress and 4 (!) fluffy pillows. And the best is the projector screen on the wall opposite bed, perfect position and picture and sound quality is very good.

I arrived and realised I needed to submit all sort of documents via WhatApp (which I thought was a bit dodgy). I then had to wait for verification to be done - it's not great having to deal with a WhatsApp "robot" when you are tired from the travel and just wanted to get into the room you have paid for. Thank god for me one of the security guards had the number of the person in charged, he called him to came down to pass me the key.
• Shantharuban (10/5): Exceptional -
• Ganfye83 (8/5): Very good -
• Sarah (1/5): Bad -
• Kam (6/5): Pleasant -
• Chak (8/5): Good value for the money. - I liked the layout of the apartment. The toilet and shower are separate. It has lots of counter space and a rack for hanging clothing. The kitchenette and refrigerator are a plus if you serve takeout food. The WiFi was fast. The bed was comfortable. The view of the city was awesome. The shower door allows water to leak out and form a puddle each time I showered. The wait time for the elevators can be as long as five minutes. The check process was cumbersome and confusing the first time. The second time was easier after I understood the check in process.
• Syed (8/5): Clean and value for money. - Location is strategic. Walking distance from NuSentral/KL Sentral. None.
• Christina (9/5): Superb - comfortable with a nice view gym and good pool. There is even a sauna only 5 min walk to KL Sentral pool is already closed at 7pm check-in and check-out process is a little anoying
• Vitali (7/5): Probably will not stay unless no other cheap options (as it was) - Fast WiFi and good (not the best) vioew out of window. Big fridge and cooking stove. Check-in/Check-out MUST be improved. only 3 working elevators for such huge apartment complex is a mess (expect to wait for 5-10mins) Shower and hot water could be better. Location not so great as promised - you need walk thru shady parking to get into the mall where all located. It's close to indian district if you know what i mean by that (at least you can eat Tikka Masala)
• Annie999999 (8/5): Very good - Facilities Not cleaning in everyday
• James (10/5): Exceptional - Great location, clean and comfortable. Nice views. Straightforward check in process and responsive host.
• Annie999999 (8/5): Very good -
• Gloria (9/5): Superb -
• Katerina (9/5): Nice clean studio with breathtaking views - Strategically located near KL Sentral, the main train city hub. Our room was on 45th floor and the view was simply amazing. The studio was small but fully equipped, incl. kitchen. Great bonus is the top floor swimming pool As this ways our second stay here, we came prepared. The host does not send information through the Booking but uses Whatsap. I had to remove my sim card in order to use Malaysian data sim. This caused a bit of chaos when we arrived the first time. Thes second time everything went smoothly. Deposit 200 MYR was not mentioned on Booking
• Taisia (9/5): Cool place, actually exceeded my expectation! - I mean, its a small studio in a massive building in a central location - so I was prepare to endless noise and talking over the walls. But it wasnt! Of course there are a construction building but only at working hours. And other guests were pretty quite too. Room is small but comfortable, a lot of place to sit and chill. We manage to find a place for two people working remotely with laptops. Great internet! And the pool on the roof - what a view! Convinient location - 8 min to Central and 5 min to Monorail station. Mini kitchen is also equipped. Everything was clean. Host is responsive and helping. elevator - could be a long time to wait. The floor in the shower is on wrong angle - so water doesnt always go to the drain and stays (and smell). One blanket - for two people could be hard to sleep.
• Paula (8/5): Very good - Great place to stay! Close to Nu SENTRAL so very easy to move around the city from there! Amenities were excellent (pool, gym, rooftop). SleepyBear Team was super helpful and made the check in/out process very easy! I even had issues with my card for the deposit and they were kind enough to let me pay it in cash! The building bottom floor are still under construction (Jan.'25) so do expect a bit of noise from 8am until 6pm... but nothing unbearable! There is a shortcut from NuSentral that saves you half the time to get to the place! It would be nice to know of it in advance... maybe during the pre-check process (I only knew of it because I read the reviews before booking!)
• Cheng (5/5): I won’t recommend my friends to stay here. - Close to KL Sentra Waiting too long for the lift.
• Chak (7/5): Pretty good value for the money. - Adequately furnished. Clean. The shower door not properly installed and water pooled outside the shower stall every time I showered.
• Alexandr (9/5): Superb -
• Deric (8/5): Very good -
• Billal (4/5): not coming back - nice location , friendly staff The stay doesn’t include room cleaning, so be prepared to pay each time you want your room cleaned or the sheets changed. Additionally, I haven’t received my deposit despite asking multiple times—they just keep giving empty promises
• Samantha (5/5): Nice room and facilities but check in process was not good - The room itself was nice and as expected, also great views as we were on the side facing the main city. Location handy for the train station too. The check in process was a bit chaotic and stressful. I didn't receive any comms from the hotel about how it would work ahead of time, so it was only after we did some digging on their website that we messaged them on whatsapp to see if there was anywhere we could leave our luggage whilst we explored the city. After a bit of back and forth they asked us to send over a picture of our passport as well as to transfer a deposit to them online which all felt a bit sketchy having not had any info about this on the listing or ahead of time! So we waited until we arrived at which point we were met by someone who said we'd need to pay the deposit in cash (200 MYR). We didn't have this much cash as we were flying out the country the next day and didn't want to be left with currency we wouldn't use, but in the end they agreed to 100 MYR cash (which did then mean we had to get more cash out to use during our day there). It was all pretty confusing made more complicated by the fact that the person who met us hardly spoke any english. They then had to come and meet us at 5:30 the following morning to give our deposit back when we checked out. It would've been better if this info was all made available on the listing prior to booking as this may have changed our decision, or even ahead of us arriving to be honest so we could've planned better and knew what to expect. Also as a side note - leave enough time when getting the lift as it can take ages to arrive!
• Huang (8/5): Very good -
• Curtina (4/5): my partner didn’t fee comfortable with the cleaner - the view. Since the space is small, we were getting bump with our foot on the corners many times, in addition the cleaner is always in a hurry when we checkout, not just that hes pointing on the stain on the bedsheet and the floormat that it was dirty,its like he is asking for a payment since he keep saying “ bro broo broo and pointing a finger to the sheets. everything is paid before we leave we make sure the room is clean.
• Mohammed (10/5): Exceptional - - The perfect location of the property with excellent access to transportation to everywhere in KL. - The active fast responding and generous host - The cleanliness of the property - The
• Ciara (10/5): Perfect location for a city getaway - The apartment was perfect. It was very nicely appointed and quite spacious for two people. Clean with all the modern amenities you might need. The building facilities were fantastic, the gym was clean and had modern new equipment. There was a beautiful reading room, with views, near the laundry area, which was yet to be open, but looked nearly ready. The real plus was the magnificent pool with awesome views of the KL skyline. A couple of lounge chairs were spotted around too. There were also some smaller, jacuzzi-style pools with a perfect view for sunset! Would highly recommend this property. It was a little bit of a maze to get to from KL Sentral but once on the right level very straight forward.
