"This has been my regular 'go-to' hotel whenever I go to KL. Their service has always been good but this time round, housekeeping has slacken as I was left with THREE pathetic pieces of tissue in the box! I didn't bother to call for service because I was staying only a night. But I felt it's just not the expected service like the last time."
