well i survive here all i can say, this hotel start having too much problems , the only thing i hate is when people lying and ignore their problems, you have it all here, bugs everywhere bite you or big roaches, dirty walls with conditioning start making water.. but the hotel staff have the audacity to tell me that i bring the bug with me, enough is enough i change 4 time room to get a clean one in 3 week on this hotel, sorry again if i try to be clean and protect myself from bed bug and roaches, i really try stay positive with the submarine but enough is enough, dont tell your costumer they bring bugs, and dont complain when people change room for safety.

とても安く宿泊できます。 しかし、水回りのコンディションは良くないですので、清潔感を求める人には向いていません。 周辺エリアはチャイナタウンがすぐで、駅もすぐ。 旅行するには最適です。

初めて泊まりましたが、遅いチェックインにもかかわらず、オーナーは親切でスタッフも丁寧でした。安宿によくあるお客様の節度により評価が変るのは仕方ないとは思いますが、オーナー・スタッフはとても頑張っていて気持ち良いです♪　アジア圏を中心に同じ様なゲストハウスを泊まっていますが、また泊まりたいと感じる宿です！！次もお世話になりますね＾＾

日本から考えれば、信じられないくらいに安い。オーナーは質問すればなんでも答えてくれるのでとても助かる。ただ客室は値段相応なので期待すべきではない。しかし清潔に保たれている。総じてオススメする。

神経質には厳しい

ハウスダストアレルギーなのですが、1泊目で鼻水が止まらなくなってしまいました。おそらくベットのホコリか天井のカビかと思われます。 立地は駅からは分かりやすいものの、ホテル真下が浮浪者の寝床になっており、通過しないとホテルに入れません。夜はうめき声が1時ごろまで聞こえます。 あと、個人的にはシャワールームに小さな虫が沢山いたのがきつかったです。

Still don't know why it's named "Submarine"

I stayed at Submarine Guesthouse for six days. My original plan was for 8. It is not solely at the fault of the guesthouse but also because of Kuala Lumpur being too humid and me getting sick. Right out of the train station, I had a difficult time navigating in the dark, and wound up arriving much later than expected. The owner had something of a sarcastic attitude, which was kind of off-putting. Told me I wouldn't like it because bathrooms were outside the room, rooms weren't that great and after staying a few days I'd want out. I took that as a sign. I got a room with 2 beds. I'm only one person. Internet connection was tenuous at best. Could barely connect to anything. Room had black out curtains, but the wall was angled, so the curtain fell away from the window, and light would shine in uninterrupted. You can also hear everything through the walls.Floor is covered in contact paper that was super easy to accidentally shred. Few days later, I went to the front desk, and he says, "Oh, I was worried...when people disappear, it looks bad for us." This was because I hadn't come down for the "complimentary breakfast." Thanks, but white bread and jam is not a breakfast to me, so I would go out and buy my own. Otherwise, I was just exploring KL.

Excelente custo benefício

A guest house é simples, ideal para quem quer ficar bem localizado e não espera muito conforto. A localização é excelente, perto do transporte público, da merdeka square, de vários restaurantes. Os quartos são pequenos mas confortáveis. Há uma sala onde podemos sentar e conhecer outras pessoas. A wifi funciona muito bem, inclusive nos quartos. O café da manhá é bem simples. O Max, gerente, é uma pessoa encantadora e poderá sempre te ajudar! Thanks Max!!

I stayed in submarine guest house for 6 days, it was very clean, dorms were very good and very comfortable, the best thing about this hotel is its prime location and amenities.From there the many touristic location are just 10 minutes walking...the manager Max was very nice guy, anything you need he will help you, the breakfast was very good...If you are looking for cheap hotels/hostel, I strongly recommend you to go for it.

駅からは近い

駅からは近く、オーナーの方の人柄は良かった。客室も比較的清潔な感じだった。しかし、まずシャワー室とトイレが一体でとても狭くシャワーを浴びる気になれなかった。すこし広いシャワー室もあったが各フロアに１つだけ。朝ごはんはパンがあったが汚かった。日本人に人気とあったが、2泊の滞在中、日本人は見当たらなかった。

値段の割にかなり良い

値段の割にかなり良い、というのが感想になります。一部お湯が出ないシャワーなどもありましたが、そこに関してはスタッフの方が「こことここはお湯のシャワーが出ない」と事前に教えてくれますし、部屋も古い建物を丁寧に使用しているという感じで特に嫌な気持ちにはなりませんでした。
