Woah finally I'm back from KL. Overall its a pleasant trip for me and my family. Thanks Jason for his recommendation for the travel agency, guides and etc... The service on the bus was really good; attitude and service of the steward is good, they make sure you are fed with food and biscuits, feel comfortable with movies and music and hot drinks throughout the journey to KL.
We reached KL around 11.30pm and took a cab to our hotel - Royale Bintang (I will recommend this hotel and will definately choose to go back to this hotel again), check-in and went down to the night street for supper. Was quite surprised that the entire street sells food till really late in the wee hours, some are 24 hrs. So there won't be lack of food to eat over there. Haha and what surprised me was that when we went back to my hotel room, I saw 2 ladies with an extra bed waiting outside my room. I had requested for an additonal bed for my room with my family earlier on but the thing is that we had informed the receptionist that we are going out for supper, and I know that the room service ppl can have access to our rooms and they can just leave the bed there.
So seriously I do not know how long have they been waiting outside and I felt really bad about it. So we are like asking them how come they don't want to go in with the access key and just leave it there. And their reply was they are told that if the guest is not in his/her room, they are not supposed to go in although they have the access key. For whatever reason I don't know but one thing that I'm sure is that I know I can trust the hotel staffs and leave my things in the hotel room without any worries that they will ransack my stuffs or take some stuffs away which I experienced quite a few times at diff hotels before.
The next morning we went down for breakfast and the food is good with lots of variety! Then we set off for Berjaya Times Square(Vivocity). Witnessed a 1st International KL dancing competition over there, its very interesting. Then we moved off to Lot 10(Lido) for lunch and some shopping. After which we proceeded to Sungei Wang and Bukit Bintang Plaza(Far East) and I got most of my tops there. Seriously there's nothing much to buy over there for my parents and relatives. My relatives only bought some baby clothings and I got a few tops. The rest are spend on eating only. I also realized the KL is dominated mainly by Starbucks. I walked past like 10 starbucks, 1 coffee bean and 1 dome? Haha. After all the shopping, we went back to the hotel for a rest and went down for the Latenight Chinatown Buffet. The food was phew... fresh and delicious! Haha.. After which we took a cab over to Chinatown. Was very crowded n pretty chaotic over there too but didn't buy anything. Then we decided to walk back to the hotel. The distance was like er... dunno how many kilometres but I only know we walked really long! I'm like telling my mum I can train for my 48 km for NS lol.
Went to Plaza Low Yat(Sim Lim square) and KLCC(Takashimaya) the next day but too bad cannot go out to the twin towers since its only open from Mon-Thurs. Left KL at 4pm and reached SG at about 10.30pm. Halfway through the journey the bus broke down to the rain. Heard that the sensor of the bus come into contact with water or something and its not functioning properly. So they arranged for a back-up bus for us. I will rate a 7/10 as an overall experience. Hees.
