Guest Reviews
- Ann Lim (6/5): No free parking , room No window - My son online pay TNG parking .
- Alices_ohli (2/5): Bad stay experience - This used to be my favorites hotel before MCO, but now after MCO, everything changed, I booked the room 1 week earlier, when I check in, 2 indian lady staff ask for my booking ID, I passed them my booking details and my IC(as my booking name is same as the IC) but they just said they can't find my booking,they didn't receive my booking! They don't even search for my name to check properly. After they confirmed with their manager, my booking has been transferred to Expedia, but actually booking name is still same, just the booking I'd changed, why they still can't find the booking? Then, this 2 staff speaking Tamil Infront of me for few minutes to discuss their check in thing, .. they asked for my phone number, when I'm telling them my phone number, don't even finish my number yet then they speak Tamil again, discuss for something else. Then I stop and wait them to finished their discussion in Tamil language which I can't understand at all, then she ask again my phone number, then I have to repeat all over again. This is so rude to speak their own language Infront of guest somemore we can't understand it at all! After check-in,I realized they assigned me a twin bed room, they said they received my booking is with twin bed, but what I booked from agoda is double bed! Which is 1 big bed for 2 person! U tell me that u received booking stated twin bed, do u think this is my problem?! There are 2 different room type twin bed and double bed, I paid more expensive price for double bed, twin bed is cheaper! and I'm not saying that I choose the preference for double bed,The room type I booked is STANDARD DOUBLE BED ROOM. The next day I checked out early morning around 6/7 am, the front desk staff changed shift, is a Malay girl, she don't even say any word for the whole check out process, no greetings, no thank you at all and with dirty look. I stay in this hotel couple times before, everything was great back then, even though it located far from the Ipoh town I still choose to stay here but now no more next time, I know I should not have high expection for budget hotel but the staff really need to be train well on their knowledge and how to respect people..
- Verified traveler (2/5): - i booked this on expedia but never get the confimation email.i've book straight away by calling hotel but the receptionist didnt check that my book with expedia actually successful.i've lost money in the process.
- Chew (10/5): Excellent! - Quiet, clean n comfort!
- arminij (6/5): Short stay is best location - Nice place .. when u reach over the night and u need a place .. here u go.. few shops for Chinese food is nearby .. it’s a shoplot with receiptionist at ground. 2 floors, lift available..no swimming pool no gym.. so short stay is best stay
- Ng (8/5): - Overall is ok and value for money. Need improvement on wifi signal strength and loose furniture.
- Minato86 (8/5): Value for money. Location is also ok. - Stayed here for a night as I was in Ipoh for Qing Ming. For those who are going to Sam Poh Tong and the other temples on the same road as it, this is a good place to stay at. There are shophouses with eateries nearby and there is also a 7-11 within walking distance. The rooms are clean and comfortable.
- Verified traveler (10/5): - Nice hotel,near to town n best part clean room and
- Fiqaqa (4/5): Nothing much - I chose this hotel because of few criteria from tripadvisor itself but nah I can see nothing much difference tho. Tv channel nothing much to show, we went down asked the Indian guy regarding the tv channel but he said it’s random tv show depends on the room I was like what??? The room was ok, it’s spacious. We requested for king bed but what can I see is they’re actually combined 2 single bed that you can see the line gap which it will make you uncomfortable when sleeping. Wifi was ok. It was loud at 6-7 am. First, I can hear next room’s alarm clock which keep repeating after 5 mins. Second, and this is what annoys me the most. The staff itself I think might be cleaner or housekeeper, they turn on the radio when passing by the room and it was non stop as the housekeeper might be cleaning the same floor but well we still can hear tho. Please respect your guest. Overall, if I would come back to Ipoh I won’t stay here again.
- 518ektap (8/5): Good mountain view!! - was quite difficult to find this hotel as google kept showing weird ways to get there, but the hotel is clean and nice. Bug spacious room with a full glass window facing the mountains. There are a few chinese restaurants with good food nearby. There is a free parking nearby but the road is extremely bad to get out of that.
- lilinalena (6/5): Just Ok - If you just want to sleep and go. This is the correct place for you. (Suitable for backpacker traveller). - The bed was ok. - The toilet was ok. - The tv's channel was ok. Bad point : - The hotel got no view. 1 facing people's house. Another 1 facing the road full of cars. - The parking not so safe. Overall just OK. SLEEP AND GO.
- SX (6/5): - too noise because my room is too close to the road.
- AinilI (6/5): Value for money - Definitely value for money. RM 138 for deluxe king room. RM 100 for room with 2 single beds. Hotel lobby small but nice looking. Room wise.. basic amenities provided - coffee, hair dryer, tv, fridge, safe box, toiletries. Room condition - uneven looking paint wall, dripping water from shower hose but still usable, crooked aircond panel but still operable. This hotel is opposite the main road, thus can hear traffic flow but it didn't bother my night sleep much. We had nice thai food dinner at nearby restaurant ( waritha ). It's only 2 minutes walk from the hotel. Overall, it's a good stay with good price.
- alvinder (8/5): - relatively new hotel, about 10 minutes drive from the airport. Definitely need a car of your own to move about and head into the city, free parking is provided in an empty lot beside the hotel. rooms are decent sized, clean and either facing the main road or back of houses. keep the curtains closed and you're good. noise levels are low and pretty peaceful at night. walk around the housing estate and you'll come across some convenient stores and local eateries.
- Verified traveler (8/5): - good，friendly staff,altough is a bit far from town but is fine as long as u have car
- Vincent (10/5): Hotel room - Others very good but only bed is not comfortable at all due to two single bed combine together.
- Vincent (10/5): Convenient - Do more in promotion price fit customer to enjoy the more privileges in this hotel
- singletraveller (6/5): 10 mins drive from center. - Noisy and non functioning aircond. Sound from adjoining rooms. Stayed three nights. Bathroom wasnt cleaned by hotel staffs and bedsheets not changed.
- 20akiml (8/5): Good Budget Hotel - It is a hotel located in shop houses, quite new. The staffs are friendly and attentive. The room is cozy and clean. Nearby have a lot of restaurants, coffee shops and attractions. Worth to stay This awesome budget hotel. I strongly recommend
- Kim Ryan Dee (10/5): Hotel staff was outstanding in customer service. - Well clean area. Nice staff and also maybe could have a check on the WIFI speed.
- Verified traveler (8/5): Noise from the main road. - Overall it was a pleasant stay. My only complaint was the noise coming from the main road. The hotel does not provide any soundproof rentention or whatsoever to manage this problem.
- phoenix (8/5): Nice and clean hotel - Nice clean and comfort hotel. Near to kuanyin temple just cross the road.
- gunalan (8/5): hotel experience - had a pleasant stay, friendly staff, the hotel facilities was new and had a comfort experience there.
- JulianawatiE (6/5): Budget - 1. Standard rooms 2. Not much facilities 3. Clean 4. Back of hotel is a cemetery 5. Mart beside hotel 6. Not much parking lots 7. No safe box 8. Heater not hot enough 9. No extra key card given. Only 1 for each room. 10. No breakfast
- 371jetn (8/5): What a surprise... !!! - This hotel is totally worth it for the amount of money pay. The condition of the hotel is clean, pleasant front desk, ample parking space and near to central. Wifi is good. The only reason i am not giving 5 star is because the pillow is really uncomfortable. Just remember to put parking voucher as the city council will come and write saman.
- Verified traveler (8/5): nice hotel - nice hotel to stay but a bit far from the city centre
- G4232WTjeffreyl (2/5): Below expectation - The hotel was a recommendation from a friend. Stay for one night and paid Rm 148 for a deluxe room. Hotel is converted from shop houses. Reception is okay for this kind of hotel. Room is smaller than the advertised picture. Bathroom is wet after shower as there is no shower screen. The entire hotel has a perfume smell like in an Indian restaurant. Hotel may charge for extra pillow if you take 2 pillow. Car parking is at road side with a night guard who sit inside lobby, rather than watching. The price I paid is considered high given this type of quality standard and location outside city center. I will not stay at this hotel again
- JeannKhoo (8/5): Water dispenser, ideal for those who don't like mineral water. - For those who wish to stay at a cheaper option and don't mind slightly far to the Ipoh city, Mornington is one of the best hotel to stay. The check in took a little bit longer, but they let us checking earlier so I'm okay with that. Housekeeping service was prompt. What impressed me was the water dispenser at the lobby. The bed was comfortable but slightly hard for my liking. The downside is, there's no complimentary parking lot. But for those who don't own a car it shouldn't be a problem.
- Verified traveler (10/5): Clean, friendly, budget and plenty of parking spac - Good stay although slightly out of town. I don't mind travelling a little to have a good parking spaces, clean and worth the stay.
- Cheryl (10/5): Clean hotel - Clean hotel, great view out front, friendly hotel staff. Ideal for traveller with vehicles as there are ample of parking spaces in front of hotel.
- Irving (6/5): Overall nice budget hotel near to nice coffee shop - Pleasant and helpful receptionist and nice and clean hotel.
- dubaijournal (8/5): Good choice for singletons and bikers - I really liked this hotel although I imagine some might gripe about the lack of windows. I'm out all day, so I don't need a view, and I prefer to come back to a cool bedroom (with great a/c) and to sleep without any road noise. This hotel is on a main road into the city and around 12-13 minutes from the train station so it's really only for travellers who have a vehicle or don't mind waiting for a Grab ride. The hotel has a night security guard and you can park right in front of the 24 hour reception desk. The staff are very good, but no tourist information is provided - not even maps. Equipment = hairdryer, loo roll and toothbrush, safe and fridge plus cold water in the reception so flashpacker standard except that there was only one towel in the single room. Everyone has to produce a passport or ID card at check-in. The "tourist tax" is a fixed 10RM.
- prisca0913 (8/5): Budget and clean stay - Best for those who are tight in budget but seek for clean and comfortable room. About 10 mins drive from town eg, Ipoh Parade. Hotel location is just few hundred metres away from Sam Poh Tong and Pomelo shops. It is also near to Kellie's Castle, and exit to KL.
- Izhar (10/5): Had a great stay. - Stay for a night. Room is spacious and clean. Amenities are adequate. Hardly any negative thing to write.
- dkr28 (10/5): Pleasant stay - Value for money - The hotel room is big and spacious. It is very clean and well maintained. Has an iron in the lobby of every floor. The TV channels are well selected for all walks of people and multi lingual. The food outlets are very limited within the vicinity. If there can be a good restaurant in one of the empty shop houses in the block would be complimenting the guest of the hotel convenience.
- 755elainet (8/5): Clean and comfy stay - Stayed there for a night with my mom. Location is quite close to the city, just 7-10 mins drive away. The room is equipped with all that the basic amenities that you need, and there is securities guarding at night. However staff did not mention the complimentary garage parking as seen in other reviews, and recommended us to get coupons, until we asked if we could park at the hotel property. Overall we like the room and it's definitely value for money to recommend my friends for their future visit to ipoh.
- CSK_2004 (8/5): Comfortable Room - New comfortable room, the hotel provide basic amenities such as cotton bud, toothbrush with toothpaste, towel, coffee and tea. it is ok for a short stay, it is 10 mins drive from Ipoh old town and restaurant but it is just 5 mins drive away from the famous Kek Look Tong Cave.
- Munyee92 (8/5): Comfortable stay - We stayed in the standard family room and it was so spacious. The hotel was generous with the basic amenities provided.The staff were helpful with arrangement of rooms for my family members who booked 2 other rooms with them. Definitely will return again!
- farizaz2015 (10/5): Nice And Spacious - Was been friendly greet. Workers in the hotel are friendly. Room are very spacious and clean. Located very close to the city. Convenient to buy food because the convenient store just right below of the hotel.
- MalaysianSingaporean (10/5): Affordable, new, clean, good service - We needed to book for 14 people and this was one of the few accommodations that had space and was refundable. We decided to choose a hotel instead of a homestay because of price and convenience (more bathrooms per person, 24-hr check in, amenities, etc) LOCATION It's a ten-minute drive from the city centre. Not far at all, if you are driving around Ipoh. SURROUNDINGS Right next to the hotel is a small but very well-stocked supermarket. There's also a halal cafe where we had supper one night. We parked our cars in front of the hotel. CHECK-IN Every room was given one key card, air con remote, and TV remove. We paid a deposit for the key and remotes. We mistakenly booked one room more than we needed. The T&Cs stated that we would have to pay for the room because we did not cancel it in time. Nonetheless, the front desk manager agreed to refund the room and asked us to call the booking website to process the refund. After a couple of phone calls, all was confirmed. On another note, the lobby had a long sofa, chairs and a table, and a water dispenser, which was nice for the rest of our party waiting for the check-in process. ROOM ACCESS There was one lift, and there were no steps or stairs. ROOM The room had no windows, but it didn't matter to us because we only stayed a night. It also had air-conditioning (not central -- we could control it ourselves with a remote), two beds, a bedside drawer, a long bench to put luggage, a wardrobe, a desk and chair, hair dryer, and cable TV. Inside the wardrobe was a safe, 2 glasses, coffee packet, bathroom amenities like soap and sewing kit. Each bed had a towel and a pair of slippers on it. Lighting was bright. I'd say that the room was small (we definitely would not have been able to fix an extra bed in it) but it was clean and cosy. BATHROOM The en suite was small and basic but clean and modern -- seemed very new. The shower area was not enclosed with a door or curtain -- only a glass panel between the shower area and the toilet bowl. To try to keep the bathroom as dry as possible for my roommate, I had to shower very carefully and very close to the wall. Fortunately we were only there for one night. CLEANING We only stayed for a night, so housekeeping didn't come in to clear our room. WI-FI There are several Wi-Fi routers around the hotel and the password is written on the phone in the rooms. We didn't use it much but it worked fine for Whatsapp and facebook. MEALS We didn't eat in the hotel -- I don't think they have a restaurant there anyway. FACILITIES No typical facilities I can think of. There was a water dispenser in the lobby, and parking outside the hotel. The receptionist provided us with a list of places of interest. SERVICE The front desk was accommodating and helpful. CHECK-OUT Although typical check out is noon, we requested for a later check out and were able to check out at 2pm. FINAL RECOMMENDATION I would stay in Mornington Soon Choon again. Sure, the room doesn't have a window, and showering can be a little inconvenient, but whenever we do go to Ipoh, it's never more than one night, and we're certainly driving. So it's just perfect for us. (Sidenote: It's time consuming to write reviews! If you found this review useful, please pay it forward by sharing your own experiences on TripAdvisor.)
