Hey all,

I will be a new student in Taylor's University next february.
Would love to ask you all from Taylor's University about which place is the most recommended accommodation for me beside the on-campus hostel?
Thank you.

P/S: I have posted my question in taylor's University thread but i did not get any reply...
So, I have started a new topic.

Anyone here stayed in the on campus hostel before?
How's it? Good or bad?

my recommendation is to go personally to SS15, Subang Jaya where Taylor's College is situated and find accommodations there. There are more affordable options there and it's convenient with all the shops situated around the area. You can always take the shuttle bus that's available to go to Taylor's University for classes.

sunway mentari..but u need to have transport..

U mean mentari court? Where it used to be accomodation for the old PJ campus?

Added on December 8, 2010, 10:27 amactually i surveyed the lakeside campus last year when it was still in building stage..there is a nearby taman, where i saw many houses for rent.. i think there is a low-cost flat there as well? it should be cheap but u have to worry security matters (robbery, theft, etc.) because u r staying in public area

Which campus you're going? Lake side or SS15?

You may consider Suriamas/Ridzuan

- More frequent bus shuttle to Lakeside campus.
- Closer to Sunway Pyramid for shopping and recreation.

Lakeside Surrounding Areas:
Pros - Proximity to campus
Cons - Relatively isolated to campus facilities.

SS15:
Pros - Proximity and endless food choices.
Cons - Further from Lakeside. Bus shuttle less frequent(refer to Inter-Campus Bus Schedule Booklet)

Hope that helped.

yeaps..but the place is full of immigrants..

be careful when u staying mentari/suriamas/ridzuan

last year, my friend got robbed while walking to the condo (he claimed they are indonesians), nevertheless that area really is full of immigrants

If u mean Taylor Lakeside then the nearest one would be the houses nearby which is quite expensive, the cheaper option is where I'm living now, Lagoon Perdana Apartment.

if u talking about the SS15 Taylor UniCollege, then there ALOT of house, room, apartment for rent, go to LYN's classified section and u can find alot of places to rent too.

As for Mentari court, not a good place, its far(unless u got car) and filled with foreigner..

Added on December 9, 2010, 12:29 amI am searching for the rooms near that area as well..
but very limited choices available.

Added on December 9, 2010, 12:31 amomg, i heard a lot bout mentari court too, it's really not an ideal place for students.

so u gonna study at lakeside campus? and u want cheap place and near?
my best recommendation is Lagoon Perdana Apartment..
small room ranges from RM200~RM300
middle room ranges from RM250~RM400
master room ranges from RM300~RM400
the whole unit ranges from RM650~RM1000

price difference normally caused by unit condition, furnished or unfurnished, air cond or not etc..
the mgt is currently tightening the security, access card not only for cars, even human need them to enter.

Well I know all these cuz I'm renting here too, a student as well..

Lagoon Perdana is near to Sunway UC right?
Which means i will need to drive to the campus?

not really near Sunway UC... Its nearer to Lakeside campus than Sunway UC.. Check google map if u not sure..

Wow! Very cheap compared with Sun-U residence; In Sun-u -twin sharing with air-con RM730 per person!

If I am not mistaken, Taylors Lakeside apartment are also comparative to Sun-U, no?

If you are looking for something within walking distance to Lakeside campus,
you are really down to:

1. Houses nearby
2. Mutiara Perdana Apartments.
3. Sunway Court.
4. Taylors campus accommodation.

isn't it called Lagoon Perdana Apartment?

I think it's mutiara instead of lagoon.
Lagoon Perdana is the one near to monash and sunway uc.

just avoid mentari court area, my friend lived there for 2 years. full of immigrants, dangerous, if im not mistaken 2 suicide case happened.

TS do you have your own transportation? if have

u can find other place such as indah villa. nearer to sunway uc though

Still rent is exp all over the area you mentioned.

Thanks for the reply.
I dun plan to drive to the campus.
Not gonna wish to waste time to search a parking slot which is far away.

Lagoon Perdana is across the highway(LDP) from Lakeside.
Yellow building with a hint of maroon here and there.
Visible when one approaches the Sunway-Puchong Toll
Unless Taylors pans on building an overhead bridge(crossing) or underground tunnel,
crossing over might be slightly challenging, let alone dangerous.

LagoonView is the one right next to Sunway University College or behind Sun-U Residence.

In terms of proximity, Mutiara Perdana is still the closest for an apartment.

Hope that helped

I see.
How about houses in PJS 7/5 and 7/2?

Er guys, anyone renting/know the price range at Sri Hartamas which is within walking range to the campus?

Hi hope it is ok I ask this here, I want to go to Taylor lakeside this weekend for the open day. Anyone know a nice clean & cheap hotel I can stay at?

http://www.taylors.edu.my/en/university/ab...lors/contact_us
Call thm up. You might be able to register through their centre.

Yea I wanna know the hotel nearby too.
So far I know summit hotel which is cheaper than Sunway hotel.
But it's in usj n quite a distance from lakeside.

Bro do you know what is the cheapest hotel in the sunway lagoon area???

No. >.<
I am finding one too coz i need to go down to Sunway someday to find rooms for my accommodation there.
The cheapest I can find is only summit hotel.
Sunway Hotel is too expensive.
Not affordable for a student. ):

Added on January 6, 2011, 6:28 pmIf u need a clean hotel room with security and very affordable, try 3K, which is the community centre for subang jaya. The motel is beside the 3K sporting facilities and at night it is very quiet there. In the event u need supper, A and W is just right besides it, and a short walk from the motel there are a few warungs. It is managed by Summit group, but the place is owned by Selangor state. I live nearby and sometimes I place my friends there as its quite safe.

You may use the swimming pool for free and parking is also free for customer.

Hi everyone..!!

I am from JB and I will be sending my daughter to do her 1 year foundation studies at Taylor's College in Subang Jaya in JULY 2011.

We are in the process of looking for information on the various options available for accomodation for my daughter. Most of you would probably know that the college does provide student accomodation at the these places:

1. My Place, SJ
2. Ridzuan Condominium, Bandar Sunway
3. Mentari Court, Bandar Sunway
4. E-Tiara, Subang Parade

I would like to get some feedback from the locals about private accomodations around the college and how do people go about looking for them? i.e. the kind folks here, on these places (in terms of convenience/conduciveness of environment for study/comfort/cost, etc) to help me make a decision as we have no idea about the place.

Is there any female students who wants to find a roommates for this July intake ?

My children stay at suriamas condo. they study at Taylor too

how much you paid for the rent?
how about the safety levels there?
heard that there is a lot of Africans stay around there..a bit worried for my daughter..
