Hi there,

It's been a while since I left Nilai. Well, i stayed in Hostel for my study time there. It is.....well i should say could be better.

I got a lot of my friends stay outside. Apart from the apartment at the back of the hostel, other places you might need cars or some sort of transportation.

For the apartments behind the hostel, 3 of my friends stay in one apartment and it cost them RM200 per month. Of course, the price quoted is 18 months outdated and it doesn't include the Internet.

I also got friends stay at Melati (right hand side of INTI) in terrace house and it cost them RM750 for the whole house with three rooms and have to pay for electricity, internet, gas and water themselves.

The hostel price always change and I did not paid the hostel fees last time because I was "forced" to be there hence they subsidized us. Staying in hostel is quite "efficient" - can walk to the uni soon, got internet (albeit slow and danger), file sharing (dunno still got or not).

Let me put it this way, if you are there just for A-levels, meaning 12 - 18 months, I would suggest you to stay in hostel. If you are there for your everything, you can start looking, but for now, you can stay in hostel for a sem or two first.

Hope that helps.
