"Close to Chow Kit station (light green line). I recommend taking exit B for an easier, shorter walk to the accommodation with fewer road crossings.
The atmosphere feels new, and the area looks clean, but my room had some stains on the walls. However, this was compensated by the soft bed, blanket, and pillows, which made for a good night's sleep.
The walls, though, are not soundproof. The noise from doors opening and closing was quite loud, which I wouldn't recommend for light sleepers. It only started to quiet down around 2 AM.
~Bring earplugs if you're a light sleeper!
The room deposit is 50 RM.
But for a hostel with shared bathrooms and private sleeping pods, it's acceptable for a temporary stay.
**It seemed my room had an issue with the smoke detector, and I was confused and upset that staff tried to open my room with a master key without knocking first!!!"

Mr Backpacker Hostel
9.8/10
Outstanding
Posted on May 4, 2026|1 Person In 6-Bed Dormitory - Female Only
Anonymous UserI really enjoyed and felt comfortable during my stay at Mr. Backpacker. The hostel is really nice, clean, cozy, and affordable. Above all, the staff are very kind, accommodating, and friendly, most especially the owner, Mr. Andy, who is incredibly kind. Another thing I liked is the high-quality security locks on their doors. All worth it.

What a beautiful place! I felt like I was at home. The owner was very friendly and helpful, and I really loved his creativity in decorating the place.
The location is good and close to many restaurants. However, it was a little difficult to find at first, but I managed to find it in the end.
You can even cook your own meals if you want, which is very convenient. They also provide laundry service for just a few ringgit. They even offered some snacks, which was a nice touch.
I will definitely come back again!

The place has an old, cozy vibe that feels unique. The location is excellent — close to train and bus stations, markets, and all services. The staff were very kind and friendly, which made the stay more pleasant. Rooms are simple but clean, and while the amenities are basic, it’s a comfortable stay for solo travelers who value convenience and good atmosphere

A very nice hotel, clean, good location, convenient transportation. The only drawback is that this platform is too expensive to book. Friends who traveled with me said that other apps can be booked for more than 30 RMB, and offline is only 25 MYR. It's really......

I was a bit dissapointed as soon as i arrive at the hotel. The receptionist inform me that my booking was not there. But i do receive an email that my booking was confirmed and the bill already deducted from my accound bank. So i’ve decided to call service center ,luckily i got a good staff one name chelsea. And within a second service center call the hotel and glady hotel actually do receive the booking but missing the email as they were sending under expedia email (sharing company and the booking was made under apps trip.com). For the hotel , the staff the room all just complete my statisfaction with no complain. Thanks fr both hotel and trip com service center. Both are doing a goodjob

The price is very suitable and the location is also very good. It only takes five minutes to walk to the subway station.
This hostel has two buildings. One side is mainly bunk beds, but there are also single rooms.
The other side is mainly single rooms and triple rooms on the two floors inside, and the stairs are quite steep.
The only drawback is that the room is not soundproofed. The stairs are very noisy at night. Many guests go to the bar on the rooftop, so it is very noisy before 1 a.m., especially on weekends

Location is good.
Staff is nice, helpful and friendly.
The main thing was that AC was broken on second day, the entrance door as well, so anyone could come over from the street, and room wasn’t clean enough.
