We stayed at Alex's Homestay Guesthouse for 4 nights. Alex is a nice guy, very helpful with an open ear. His Homestay Guesthouse is 2 stations away from KL central. But trains are running very rarely and if you could catch one they are overcrowded. If you are planning a longer stay.... some people have been there for months, this... More

If you are in KL for just a few days and just want to do a bit of shopping and see the Batu Caves, then perhaps this isn't the place for you. It might be better to stay up in a hotel around Bukit Bintang. This place is just a bit too out of the way. It is also just... More

If you're travelling on a budget and want a local experience, this is the place to go. It's affordable, but basic. The rooms are clean when you arrive, but aren't cleaned during your stay. The interior is basic, and there was mildew on the wall of our windowless room. The shower is divine though. The airconditioning in the room works... More

We stayed at the Alex’s GH during a three week tour of Malaysia while finding the GH through the internet. We really appreciated the friendly and warm service at the GH and the cleanliness and good condition of the rooms. Despite not being fancy, the rooms are spacious, clean and orderly with great ensuite showers/toilets with superb water pressure, not... More

We enjoyed thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Alex's Guest House. We stayed for 2 months. The best things about it were Alex himself, who is a very kind, helpful, and generous person, and the other people who stayed there - everyone treated us like family. Our 2 yr old daughter got sick with a 103.5 (39.5) fever a few days... More

We stayed here three nights and found the room to be small and rather uncomfortable and unpleasant. But at least it was clean (except for some mildew). Also, you should know that it is located quite outside of town center. There is a train station right next to it, where sometimes a train will stop. (But only until 10 pm... More

Staying with Alex is like staying with an old friend. He is very friendly, kind, and even shows you around if he has time. His rooms are clean, his staff is efficient, and his guesthouse is conveniently located near a railway station. Alex prides himself on quality and it shows everywhere. Alex asks questions and is eager to help where... More
