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.

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.

The Best hotel a
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.

Ok hostel with terrible spring mattresses
Submarine is centrally located near Central Market and China Town and thus in a great location to start exploring KL. The hostel offers cheaper rates for those without a booking so try not to book if you can. The hostel and the bathrooms are clean with decent WiFi but if fully occupied trying to use the bathroom might be difficult as there are only 2 bathrooms for 7 double rooms. All said n' done Submarine is a good hostel but it's biggest downfall are the horrendous condition of the beds. Each mattress has springs poking out at you making for a very uncomfortable sleep. We changed rooms because the first room (if I remember correctly no. 7 facing the street) had a hugely uncomfortable mattress - enough that it's hard to sleep.

Average guesthouse/hostel, but good location
It's an average hostel with a good location near Central Market, Chinatown, and the metro. The staff was polite and helpful, and the bed was comfortable, but the smell of fuel made its way into the room while I was sleeping due to the windows/shutters not being fully sealed from the outdoors.

節約バックパッカー向けの宿
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^^

ขอแนะนำสำหรับคนไทย ที่กำลังมองหาโฮสเทล ราคาประหยัด เดินทางสะดวก ใกล้แหล่งกินแหล่งเที่ยวครับ ถึงแม้สภาพที่พักจะเก่าไปนิด แคบไปหน่อย ก็เหมาะสมกับราคา
