Lonely Planet Review

Quotes Don't be put off by the minimalist signage: Pujangga's motto is 'your home away from home'. Past the understated entrance is a simple lounge area, a cheery galley kitchen and a small, sweet selection of budget rooms.

You may worry that you're rattling the gate of a private residence, and indeed Pujangga Homestay could put a bit of time into the front courtyard, but the lack of effort ends as soon as you enter this small pension, housed in one of KL's charming colonial terraces. The ground floor loungeroom is set up for long days of reading, as well as a few DVD sessions (sometimes there's a BBQ in the courtyard). There's only space for 11 people, so you don't get the swinging-door atmosphere of bigger places, but there's still Internet access and an international phone line. Rooms are clean and come with fresh-looking linen and air-con; some don't have windows. Pujangga Homestay is a low-key choice on what is more of a residential street than a thoroughfare.
