Despite located in a busy area, KL Journal Hotel is hidden in a valley beside the ever-busy Bukit Bintang crossing. Rest-assured that the hotel is petty quiet at night. The hotel is pretty easy to spot, with its modern-design building.
Check-in was pretty smooth, and I am able to get the keys to my room in less than 10 minutes.
