This place has 3 different things... First in the underground you can find a bar and restaurant and sometimes there are live performances too. Second there was an exhibition. I personally haven't tried to go in so I don't know what kind of exhibition for sure is about art. Third there was a bookstore. The bookstore itself was owned by book xcess but the interesting part is that the design of their bookshelf. Well the down side you need to ask their staff if you want to search for the book that you are looking for.
Oh the last one, at the top of the bookstore there was another bar but it's more chill and relaxing You can have drinks over there if you don't like crowded places at the underground.

Overall, it was a nice place with a nice bookstore.

I came here on Wednesday night. Many of the food vendors were closed. The hot wings pizza was good, noodles are nice, and the ice cream was really nice. Dark chocolate was bitter, and I choose the banana ice cream called "banana business" and I loved it! There is a cocktail bar which I did not try.
There is a tattoo parlor here, book access, not very big and needs some maintenance done. The art gallery has some nice music that I like. Parking can be hard to find. Ended up parking walking distance away for 4.50/hr.

- walking distance from Chinatown
- has different floors. Love the concept of the building. The building where REXKL is also have food stores/like a food court, they also have a coffee shop, vape store, bar, and like an antique store
- REXKL is an Instagrammable spot actually the whole place is but it's kinda hot there. Hopefully they improve the place by making it a little colder so people could stay or hang there

The place is super kewl normally. Got a little market downstairs. Retro shops and books shops. They have an absolutely massive and unpractical bookshop at the top. Well worth a look. It was like a factory or something once. We went for a visual arts thing, and it was awesome

Cultural arts place with lots of food at the basement, a Cafe and ice cream stall on the first and second floor, a book store at the top floor. There's so many picture worthy spots and just a place full of hipster vibes.

It’s a nice hangout place with friends. The little shops and Bookstore is fun and interesting. However, the choices of food on the ground floor is kinda limited, not a good options for people with different dietary needs. The bar has a (not too bad) selection for beers and IPA but the cocktails… hmm… let’s say, they don’t have many many choices. On and off they have some events and at times, it gets too loud and not fun.

This is an amazing bookstore! The atmosphere is enhanced by the powerful theatre sound system and the layout is delightful, like a maze! Many nooks and crannies to explore and we almost forgot its a bookstore. Had a wonderful experience here and would recommend any visitors to KL to drop by.

Cool place, totally worth it for bookworms as well. One meeting point for hang out with your friends and loved ones. Please watch your step when explore the book maze. You can get your ice cream or snacks in first floor after exploring the maze and got your book. They still have shows as well. It's 10/10 to go to this place.
