We stayed here between flights. While a bit tired and dark (with an out-of-commission small restaurant), the room was large and comfortable and the desk manager a gracious lifesaver when travel bookings temporarily crumbled. A RM30 taxi from the airport, and walking distance to a...More

Because u arrive at that time u need to make sure you get the taxi coupon ride. Its 50% more than usual rate (about 45) and safe but hang on to your receipt. You don't need to tip the driver or anyone... Don't spoil the market ;) and enjoy your trip to KK! Go to the Phillipines market and get some pearls as souvenirs but bargain for about 60% from the displayed price. If they wont sell then walk away. Because its not worth the price on display.
