Liked: Nice location close to public transport. Hostel itself is clean and beds are pretty comfortable. Dorm rooms don't lock though, which is a minus. You do get a free locker, but it's only big enough for a smaller backpack and some valuables. Still, felt my stuff where pretty safe there.Would stay again.

Disliked: Customer left no negative feedback.

Liked: This was my second long-term (2 weeks) stay at Hostel Cosmopolitan and I loved it just as much as before! Comfortable accommodation, great for meeting fellow guests, friendly staff (who actually remembered me from my previous stay! Nice bit of personal service quality that I don't often find in hostels), free unlimited internet access on PCs, convenient location next to Chow Kit station, and the resident cats are as adorable as they've ever been!

Disliked: The sound / microphone doesn't work on two out of the four PCs. It's not a huge problem obviously, but there were a lot of us who wanted to use chat programs such as Skype and couldn't as a result.

Liked: The hostel was clean and well organized with enough bathrooms and showers. The free breakfast was only toast and jam, but it was free, so you can't complain. The staff was very helpful and even stayed up late to let me in when I arrived at 3:00am. It felt very safe and had a good location very close to the monorail making it very easy to get around.

Disliked: Customer left no negative feedback.

Liked: It was as they described pretty much. It was close to the monorail station.

Disliked: It was not that clean, even though it has won cleanliness awards from hostelling websites. They clean the main floors often but look further and its very dirty - walls and under beds etc. Also i didn't like the area that much, its very crowded, and i heard from some Malaysian friends that its not a great area to be in at night. The building is an old office building or simular and has no windows.

Liked: Loved this hostel. Would recommend it to anyone. We stayed 6 nights and didnt really want to leave. It is your home from home. Rooms where spottless and you get a nice fluffy white towel if you book the smaller dorms. Massive dvd collection you can watch any time and good breakfast till 11am. In a really good location next to the mono rail and buses. 10 out of 10.

Disliked: Showers did not work for one morning but they sorted it really quick.
