She 👩🏻 used to have her secondary after school tuition 📖✍🏻 at this area back then. She has recalled some of her old memories 💭 , especially her favourite iced longan drink 🥤 & fresh tau foo fa aka douhua with soya milk 🥛 stalls
Her mama 👵🏻 used to drop by the fried chesnuts 🌰 stall to pack for her grandma 🧓🏻 before her whole family 👭👫👬 was travelling back 🚘🚗 to her mama🧓🏻’s hometown for festive celebration 🎉🎊
Also her grandma 🧓🏻 loves ❤️ to wear the wooden clogs 👡 木屐, she wore as normal sandals, not just for toilet 🚽 though.

New 🆕 Express Style Hotel 🏢 ~ Pacific Express Hotel Chinatown
Hmm…Express style hotel 🏢 aims to offering standard amenities lean toward the convenient & practical, it specially caters for business travelers & short-term stays at a reasonable price 💰
She had a cosy comfy 1️⃣st express style hotel stay 🏢🛏🚿🚽 with her media friends 👭👫👬at this newly 🆕 launched (since early Oct 2018) hotel named Pacific Express Hotel Chinatown 🏢
She was checked-in 🔑 to a Premier Family Suite (4️⃣ pax) superb early 🔑🚪@ 1.30am after her Redang Island 🌴 🏖🏝 trip to join her media friends 👭👭
Guess what❓⁉️
Her Grab driver 🚖🚕 has sent her to the nearby named Pacific Express Hotel 🏢 Central Market instead. This is because this hotel 🏢 just 2️⃣ weeks old during her stay🛏🛋🚿🚽, too new 🆕 & yet to be updated with its address📍in the Grab app 📲 She has shared her experience with the hotel management 👨🏻💼👩🏻💼 so that they will connect with Grab to update its hotel address📍into the app 📲 to offer greater convenience to its hotel guests then 👬👭👫
1️⃣st impression when she got on the bed 🛏 to catch up her sleep 💤😴 , she loves ❤️ the light & soft blanket, an energised rest for sure 😌
She was impressed with its go green 💚 & sustainable initiative 👍🏻👏🏻🙌🏻 by setting up iron board & water 💦💧 dispenser at each floor for its hotel guests 👭👫👬, it definitely reduce ⬇️ electricity 🔌 & plastic wastage, bravo‼️👏🏻
The above 2️⃣ tourist destinations 📍📍 shared are both within walking 🚶🏻♀️🚶🏻♂️ distance from this hotel 🏢
It’s very convenient to exploring around the KL city 🌆🏙 from this hotel 🏢 with the free 🆓 GOKL bus 🚌 service as right outside the hotel’s entrance 🏢 is 1️⃣ of the bus station named Kota Raya (Purple 💜 Line) 😀
