Hotel Review: Agosto Inn – Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia [Closed]

February 12, 2015 By James Clark

Hotel Name: Agosto Inn
Address: 177A Jalan Tun H S Lee, Chinatown, Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia

Agosto Inn - Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia

[Edit: This hotel has now closed. This review is left as an archive.]

I stayed at the Agosto Inn in the Chinatown area of Kuala Lumpur. I booked online via Agoda and I picked it for its budget price and location. There are lots of budget guesthouses in KL’s Chinatown and you can still find the most basic of rooms for under $20 USD. I paid $16.35 USD for this room.

There are private rooms and dorm rooms here, of which I got a private room. My room had no windows though there are some rooms with windows. I picked up wifi in my rooms without any issues.

The rooms share a bathroom which consisted of the toilet/shower room. The bathrooms are small and have no place to hang anything but they were kept clean.

There is also a common area upstairs giving the guesthouse a hostel vibe.

Also similar to a hostel is the kitchen that is available for guest use.

No durians and no vomiting.

Agosto Inn is suitable for budget travellers who are looking for a private room in a hostel-type environment. You can book the Agosto Inn online or search for more hotels and guesthouses in KL.
