    Maya Brasserie@Hotel Maya

    This is Maya Brasserie where you have breakfast in Hotel Maya.
    When I nearly finished my breakfast,I noticed a menu at my table.
    It says please order from here.
    I DID NOT know we can have menu meals!I just thought it was only buffet style restaurant.
    So i ordered..I squeezed the meals into my already-full stomach,not to waste precious meal in the hotel.
    as we entered the restaurant, we were assigned to a seat(2 seat only for one small table) which was really small,and even worse, our table is kind of connected to next table..no separation or anything..So we were so close to another couple sitting down next to us. I think its so bad we can clearly listen to what they are talking and vice versa, they can clearly hear what we were talking.
    By the way,a couple sitting next to us was one British male,one Asian girl..I wondered if the woman was a prostitute or just an ordinary girlfriend of his...He was talking to her in slow and very clear English to her,but she seemed she didn't understand it.








    Porridge





    This is one of menu meal I ordered at the end of breakfast.I pushed it into my stomach!

    Tune Hotel, KLIA-LCCT

    Category:Budget Hotel

    Location:nearby LCCT

    より大きな地図で Tune Hotel, LCCT を表示

    Accessibility:The official website of Tune hotel says 7 mins walk to the hotel from the airport,but I am sure the walk is not very comfortable.There's NO proper walkway or pavement for pedestrians. Im sure 7 mins are NOT enough to finish the walking journey to the hotel.I guess it would take about 15 mins at least.My recommendation is "Do not walk".Malaysia is a hot country with killing sunshine.
    So,how?
    There is a shuttle van between the airport (LCCT)and the Tune Hotel.
    Van fare is RM1.It takes about 2 mins only to get to the hotel.
    The problem,well,typical problem in Malaysia,is at LCCT or atleast at arrival hall NO informatoin provided where people can board the van to the hotel!!
    Van stops and lets passengers from the hotel alight right in front of the domestic departure hall like this.



    If you see it,you are lucky,Go to the van and get on!
    If you cant find it,you have 2 choices.1.wait there 2 go to bus stop in front of the food court walking past some bus stops of skybus,aerobus,bus to main termina,and star bus...probably many staff will shout at you "Sentral?" which is super annoying..In fact,proper bus stop of the van is in front of food court! without asking people,how can I know where to board the van??I have asked 4 people to just to find the bus stop.But be careful ,people who chose choice 2, even though its the proper bus stop,the van can only accomodate up to 9 people maximum. What if the van is full because people get on the van at departure hall(choice1)? Hmm, you might have to wait another half an hour..
    But the last day ,I saw the van is waiting at spot between skybus stop and LCCT terminal...
    Pls look carefully and find the van.
    Frequency of the van is half an hour.

    15mins and 45 mins in every hour from LCCT.

    Negative Comments:*Though its near LCCT,its not walking distance(not easy to walk)
    *Rooms are very small.But I think most of people stay there only for one night,so they dont mind the room is small.

    Website



    rooms are very small



    clean bathroom


    all rooms face outdoor corridor,its like an apartment.


    it ticks how long time I use aircon


    corridor,I guess they build such outdoor corridor because they dont need to use aircon for the corridors and cut costs.and also for fire emergency.

    really nice palm oil trees ,the view from the corridor

    I had thought the hotel is just beside the LCCT,but actually...hmm far..



    Lobby,enjoy aircon there.


    how about having some beer there?





    massage before /after airflight?

    outside look,very fancy



    I dont feel like walking under the sun..

    car park,pls pay


    this is an office of captrans where you can buy tickets of van to LCCT.go in the office and say "LCCT" and pay RM1 per person.The female staff there advised me its better to book ticket for early morning van of the next day to LCCT from tune hotel because many of people who stay at the hotel take airasia flight early in the morning .

    The Sky lounge@Hotel Maya

    The Sky lounge is on 13th floor(I think..my memory is ..)
    From the lounge, I enjoyed the nice view of petronus twin towers and KLCC.At night from 9pm to 11pm, there is complimentary coffee/tea and light snacks.just say coffee or tea to staff who approach u.The door that you can enter from the terrace to lounge is the central door. I saw many people are confused how and where they can go in.

    The lounge is only available for hotel guests

    Toilet at the lounge level is washlet.

    If you stay at Hotel Maya,U must try the lounge!
