“great value for your money!”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 5 November 2011

My fiance and I stayed there for a couple of nights. The rooms are newly renovated. The place is clean, comfort room's spacious, and the pantry area will make you feel at home. It has perfect location as it's in the corner of Gaya St where you'll see great finds and cheap local products.

Enjoy your stay in Sensi!

“Clean and Convenient”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 31 July 2011

We stayed here for a couple of nights for less than 100 RM. The place is very tidy. My first time to use a common bathroom. It wasn't bad at all. Free bread and water at the common area with jam and coffee. The location is at Gaya St. Which was more than perfect. I almost don't want to let you know, this is a great steal.

“Great hostel not found in THE guidebook”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 20 March 2011

This is a fairly new hostel right at the heart of the Sunday Market and a good location for walking anywhere in KK. The dorms are nice, and they give you two comfy pillows! Bathrooms are clean. The Staff are very friendly and helpful.
