Great little place, located in a terrific part of KL. Very different in a charming way when you enter the place. We stayed in a room in the hotel part, and had bed bugs. Our friends stayed in a different room, but same part of the hotel, and they didn't. The person on front desk was really friendly. However, we... more

I had booked to stay here for 2 weeks but after 2 completely sleepless nights and cold showers I had to leave. The hostel itself is modern, clean and laid back with a great location for shopping but the road is full of traffic with beeping horns and loud scooters at night and my room faced this street. My private... more

My wife and I stayed here for two nights at the start of our holiday and found it to be a nice little place. The owner was very helpful and welcoming upon arrival after a long journey. The place is very nicely done out and handily located for exploration of the city. The rooms were clean and overall we had... more

We were told the staff know perfectly... more

we stayed in a double room with private batchroom. the room was to the backside of the guesthouse and it was very quiet. we had TV&DVD on our room and could rent DVDs for free. staff was very nice. in summary, a nice guesthouse with a clean room. recommended to stay. more

This was our 1st time in Kuala Lumpur so we do not have another place to rate this against. We enjoyed out stay at the No. 8. i agree with a lot of the other guests that it was a bit noisy, but for the price we didnt mind. I think I may have gotten bed bugs, however, I cannot... more

When it came to choosing a place to stay in KL for relatively low cost and general look and feel of the place (via internet) - the number eight guesthouse seemed to stand out from the rest. Their website is very good and sells itself well. I stayed there for 4 nights and overall I would say its way below... more

well, it is my first trip to KL, and my first time staying in a guesthouse . I'm staying in a double-ensuite room for 5D/4N. it was no noise at all during the night, well, maybe that's because the room is located on the backside. the bed is good, it's comfortable. the private bathroom is small, with hot water, and... more
