Answer 1 :
are you getting any shots before the trip?
Answer 2 :
http://www.concorde.net/kl/ do the booking on the internet. Its nice to know you have something booked, they will fetch you from the airport (which is a fair way from KL), and I think its a better rate anyway. This was a really nice inexpensive hotel in KL last time I went but that was a few years ago. The Concorde is 10-15 mins walk from the main shops but plenty buses and taxis if that's too far. The new MRT may even be finished to go there by now. Its right next to the Hard Rock Cafe although the Malaysian food is excellent (go where the locals go) I would be cautious to buy a laptop as its going to be pretty hard to take back if there's a problem but there are plenty places in KL to buy them, you will need to decide your specification before you go so that you know what you are comparing them with and if its worth the risk. Bukit Bintang has many shops selling clothes and everything else at good prices. China town market has cheap fakes. Presumably you will fly into KL but 5 days is a tight time frame to go far without wasting too much time traveling so Pennang may be too far. Why not try to stay longer because although KL is great, its a big city and doesn't necessarily represent the true beauty of this fantastic country and its great people
