The driver brother picked us up at the hotel on time, the trip was well arranged, introduced us to delicious food, and also introduced the local attractions. The driver has a kind attitude. It is recommended to charter a car for a day trip.

Very recommended! The room is so clean and comfortable. Lobby also very fragrance smell and make customer felt excited to stay. Breakfast also delicious even not much of choices but I really enjoy. But just basement parking need to upgrade, there's no security guard and I think stranger can go to basement parking. Just feel insecure on that. Parking a bit creepy on the night. The place is near to Gerbang malam and Ipoh Night Market and also Concubine Lane.
