DoSomething Guest House 5

Great value for money and location was mostly positive! Conveniently located in a busy district of Ipoh's new city and was only a short ~10 minute walk across the river to the old city for sightseeing. Plenty of great, well-known food locations right outside and there's a daily night market that pops up underneath the building. Room was clean and tidy! Compact but met our expectations for the budget. Staff are friendly and we were able to leave our luggage with them after check-out to continue exploring Ipoh! We didn't try the cafe downstairs but its nice that guests have a convenient food option throughout the day right underneath.

The location was a bit of a double-edged sword as there is a night-club that plays until ~2am. The staff have taken notice of this and kindly provide earplugs for every room. Note that there appears to be no handsoap provided (unsure if the shower lotion dispenser is meant to be used as handsoap) Doors in the guest floor were all a bit creaky, they're in need of some WD-40 :P

Big, nice room with bathroom, very clean, in a central position. There's a night market right on the guest house street, but the room is on the other side of the building and therefore quiet at night. Important note, you cannot park the car on that street at night, but we easily found parking in the streets nearby. The host was very responsive, communication with him and the staff was great, they stored our luggages until check-in time and gave us useful information about parking and shops nearby.

Nothing, all was perfect!

The atmosphere of the room is clean

big window, ceiling plants at window.

noise from pasar malam.

Really enjoyed our stay in the room, it exceeded our expectations in many ways. The noise is understandably unavoidable as it is on a busy night market street however it was not an issue beyond 12am and it was generally quiet up to 8am. We really liked how comfortable the bed was and really like the aesthetics of the room. Check in was also really smooth and the host was always very friendly and approachable.

Everything was very nice and we had no major issues.

The environment very comfortable and the room was nice, clean and neat. The owner was very responsive and near with other places . Eventho, it is at gerbang malam but doesnt have a noisy sound. It quite good for solo traveller

- Friendly, helpful staff. - Spacious, clean and modern room. - Good Wi-Fi coverage. - Central location close to a lot of shops and eateries, the old town is just a 15-minute walk away.

- Not their fault, but unfortunately the downstairs cafe was closed during my stay. - The building is one block away from a nightclub, which was clearly audible until 2AM during both nights.
