Great facilities of indoor playground. With cafe and nursing room inside. Crews are friendly to guard the kids while playing. Just a bit warm when afternoon time, no AC in general area. Only AC in “theatre” and “magic wall” at designated room. At first I feel entrance fees quite pricey for ipoh area, but worth the penny with its facilities. Try to book from Klook earlier. The confirmation booking took 24hours.
