![]() ![]() Berjaya Hotels & Resorts in Kuala Lumpur. ![]() Not a good experience for a global traveller BUT not a nightmare too for those who can manage a cavern. The only saving grace is this Front Office Manager called Rakesh Mahato whom I found very helpful and understanding. I saw on two ocassions walk-in customers (there is a separate entrance from the road) who left as food preparation was delayed. Food is palatable but takes a lot of time. ![]() This place too is also badly lit and one gets the feeling of entering another dark-hole. The first thing that hits you as soon as you enter the ESPLANADE Restaurant is the putrefying smell. The bed linen is certainly faded and overused too. Enter the bath and one sees a miniature sized wash-basin (literally the size of your palm) so much so the freebies given (shampoo, dental kit, moisturizer) have to be placed at the top of the window ledge above the toilet bowl.The towels provided are loose string towels and certainly overused one. The miniature window provided (covered) opens out to some dirty surroundings so this is ruled out. The lighting inside the rooms appears to be one similar to a dark cave being lit. Rooms are very crammed with every bit of furniture thrown in so much so it feels very claustrophobic. But it is true that they can be seen in droves (they all come here to Kolkata for medical treatment, etc.) in this locality. When I mentioned this, I was told that the Bangladeshi guests make all the noises as they come out of the rooms and speak in the corridors. And since I was on the 1st floor you had the employees talking to each other in loud voices. To add to this cacaphony are calls from the muezzin emitting from nearby mosques which makes it a nightmare as the sound-proof windows just does not help. Located amidst a bustling bazaar area with shops & vendors, with people & more people (don't forget that India is a country with a billion plus population) what can we expect - cars honking, crowd yelling, dirt, squalid poverty, etc. The owner ran this biz for several decades and today is the owner of this 3* star property. As told by a Taxi driver, this place called Lakhan Lal used to be an eatery for taxi-drivers, rickshaw pullers where a worker could eat a full meal for for just $ 0.35. Not that I have had any bad experience here but this place is certainly crammed and not breathable. It surprises me to see so many good reviews about this property.
