"1. Excellent location
2. Clean and hygienic
3. Spacious and comfortable
This was my first time staying in such a spacious guesthouse. The location is excellent because it's close to the train station, the City Hall (a magnificent classical building from the British colonial era), Concubine Lane (Big/Second/Third Lane), and popular restaurants like Nam Heong Tea House, Sin Yuen Lung Tea House, Ding Feng Teochew Tofu Pudding, Lao Wong or An Kee Bean Sprout Chicken, Bentong Beef Brisket Noodle Shop, and Sin Wing Fai Bakery... I estimate it's a 5-20 minute walk to all the attractions I planned to visit.
The guesthouse opened in 2024, so the facilities are still new. The bedding is comfortable, with white sheets and thick towels. There are nine shared shower rooms for women, so you don't have to worry about sharing. There's a hot and cold water dispenser and a refrigerator... For backpackers looking to relax and travel, this is a very cost-effective guesthouse.
The staff are friendly and helpful, recommending nearby restaurants and even giving me earplugs, which I, as a heavy sleeper, didn't need at all. I originally planned to stay one night, but after experiencing it firsthand, I found it wasn't like the photos had misled me, so I extended my stay for two more nights to truly experience... the slow pace of life in Ipoh."
