          Checked in spontaneous after our trip from Penang so we checked in at about 7pm. Process was fast and rooms were clean and spacious. Only thing is parking is insufficient and if unlucky need to park further. Secondly the room is close to a restaurant with buskers and roadside so at night can hear loud sounds coming from either loud bikers and cars ramming their exhaust or from the buskers till 12am.

          Everytime in ipoh, this is the only place for me and family stay. Even though a little pricey, we really satisfied. Every room is different each other. And of course, bunk bed room is our choice. Uncle that work there i think can appoint as a role model in hotel lines. 😊

          Location is nice, in the middle of the city & near to all amenities. Anyway I could have slept better if the mattress is in better shape. Should change to new mattresses & use fiber base.

          Room looks smaller than in website. Low shower water pressure. Limited TV programmes. Linens don't look clean - maybe overtime colour change. Close to lots of eatery. Easy parking probably coz of weekend. the night uncle was great.
