On race weekends, we\u00a0are at the track from 9 &#8211; 5 every day. I don&#8217;t want to waste alot of time traveling, so location is important. I have to say that location was about the\u00a0only thing\u00a0going for this property.\u00a0We could walk around the bed if we put\u00a0all the luggage on the bed. When you sit down to go to the bathroom, you hit your head on the wall. You have to pay for towels and air conditioning. However, it was extremely clean, had a great shower, and offered free internet access in the computer lounge.\u00a0The lobby was always\u00a0busy and the courtyard was full of\u00a0guests, so it must be popular.<\/p>\n<p>We ventured into Kuala Lumpur. The main sights are spread around the city, but public transportation made it easy to move around. The Petronas Towers were gorgeous at night. I was disappointed with Merdeka Square, their main gathering area downtown. I expected more people out and about.<\/p>\n<div style=\"width: 760px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" title=\"KL4\" alt=\"Petronas Towers\" src=\"https:\/\/globaladventurestravel.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/10\/KL4.jpg\" width=\"750\" height=\"501\" \/><p class=\"wp-caption-text\">Petronas Towers<\/p><\/div>\n<div style=\"width: 760px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" title=\"KL1\" alt=\"Masjid Jamek Mosque\" src=\"https:\/\/globaladventurestravel.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/10\/KL1.jpg\" width=\"750\" height=\"501\" \/><p class=\"wp-caption-text\">Masjid Jamek Mosque<\/p><\/div>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<div style=\"width: 760px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" title=\"KL2\" alt=\"Malaysian Immigration Form\" src=\"https:\/\/globaladventurestravel.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/10\/KL2.jpg\" width=\"750\" height=\"501\" \/><p class=\"wp-caption-text\">Malaysian Immigration Form<\/p><\/div>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<div style=\"width: 510px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" title=\"KL3\" alt=\"Abdul Samad Building on Merdeka Square\" src=\"https:\/\/globaladventurestravel.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/10\/KL3.jpg\" width=\"500\" height=\"750\" \/><p class=\"wp-caption-text\">Abdul Samad Building on Merdeka Square<\/p><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>We&#8217;re in\u00a0Malaysia to go to a MotoGP\u00a0motorcycle race at Sepang International Circuit.
