Plaza Premium Lounge - KLIA 2

Plaza Premium Lounge operates several lounges and accommodations throughout Kuala Lumpur International Airport (and KLIA 2; which is the Low Cost Carrier terminal).

I am having an overnight layover in Kuala Lumpur, so I went and booked the landside Plaza Premium Lounge (by taking the KLIA Express train from KLIA to KLIA 2, which costs about MYR$3 one way).

Since my layover is around 15 hours, I have decided to book the meal + room for 12 hours on their suite room, however since I arrive after midnight, their suite room are no longer available, so they told me that they have upgraded me. The room setup is close to each other and all the rooms come with a personal bathroom. The room I was given is technically more expensive, it is a bunk bed style with a maximum of 2 persons, but given that the original room I have booked is most likely a queen, I have ended up getting a single so it doesn't benefit me at all for the upgrade.

Inside the room, there's a polish rock material bench, and then a bunk bed followed by the bathroom towards the back. The lighting was dimmed so the room was quite dark, however I believe that was the intention to bring out the elegance of the design of the room. The bathroom is also equipped with amenities which is much appreciated and not something you will get even on higher end hotels. The only issue I have with the room is there isn't any individual air conditioning control, I am assuming the central air conditioning was set rather cold so the room is pretty chilling.

Given the layout of the hotel is compact, there are also a lot of noise coming from guests walking past and going in/out of their room. I was very tired that night so I didn't hear much after falling asleep, but during peak hours from the morning until night I would assume that there would be a considerable amount of noise.

During the morning, I went to the lounge area where there's self service buffet, there wasn't anyone guarding or checking on who enter into the lounge, I walked straight in and thought I was going into the wrong place. I am not sure if the lounge is for the exclusive use of hotel guests or anyone can purchase a pass to enter into the lounge, but the seating area is not big and the food selection is rather limited.

Aerotel, which is also part of Plaza Premier Lounge, is a separate hotel which is also within KLIA 2, they have a slightly different pricing model but some of the room setups are the same. There is another hotel which is owned by Airasia, called Tune Hotel which is located outside of KLIA 2, they are operating on a budget model which is a pay for what you need. During my walk outside of the Plaza Premium Lounge, I came across these not yet completed semi private suite room. The signage says coming soon and I am assuming it may be a rest area that can be rented for a short stay, however I am not sure how they can manage the noise coming from the public area. I am not sure if they have installed chair that can turn into a lie flat seat, but it may be a good place for people to escape the public, maybe get some rest or do some work in a semi private space. I would have liked it if the walls are as high as a person's height, which will give complete privacy to people inside.
