Dongfang Motel

Changed their price when I tried to check in, demanding more money in cash, blaming Trip.com for advertising the wrong price. Refused to let me stay unless I paid more money. The owner was very rude and did not want to listen unless I paid more money. Since their motel is booked with terms and conditions that do not allow a refund, I ended up losing the money I paid for the stay and was not allowed to stay there, had to find somewhere else. Heard from another stranded guest that that’s what they do, they advertise a low price and then demand more when the guest arrives, knowing that the guest cannot get a refund and is stranded. PLEASE STAY AWAY FROM THESE CROOKS, IT’S A SCAM AND THEY ARE UNRELIABLE, DISHONEST AND UNTRUSTWORTHY!

this hotel facilities are very poor.. wash room was very poor condition.

May2022. Motel name (DongFang Motel) is marked WRONGLY on Google Maps. Search by address instead (70 Jalan Rembia, Bukit Bintang). The GPS coordinates I recorded while standing at the main door of this motel is [N3.146377,E101.708600]. This motel is on the row facing away from Jalan Alor so there is no noise to cause disturbance, but yet it is just a short walk from Jalan Alor shopping street (less than 4 mins for me). It was cheap so I didn't expect much but to my surprise, the air-con was cold enough and the bathroom tap & shower water was strong enough. Water heater works well too. The toilet flush also works well. In my room there were 3 power outlets, placed at strategic places. One at the foot of the bed (eg. to use with laptop), and two at the head (eg. to charge phone while watching Youtube). The Wifi was not too bad either. Mostly the Wifi speed was OK but sometimes it may be slow (I guess when too many guests are accessing it). The bedsheet and pillow case were all very clean. Simple blanket and towels were provided. This is about 10 mins walk from Bukit Bintang MRT station. This motel is located back to Jalan Alor, near to Low Yat Plaza, Berjaya Times Square, etc. etc. I found the location so convenient.
