Lights from outside and cafe lightened room (# 5) but ok with sleeping mask.

Location is near shops and many food options. Night market is right outside (6-12 pm) which could be a pro or con. Generally, quiet. Secure. Easy self check in and out.

The air conditioning is not cool enough even if you set the temperature to lowest

Cleanliness and cozy..the bathroom is quite big.

The bathroom wasn’t very clean, there was stuff inside the sink and toothpaste around the walls. Otherwise you’d had a higher score

Cute room. With very comfy bed and nice bathroom. Fan and air on both in room and placed to hang clothes etc

as a solo traveller, there was no possibility to meet people there. There is essentially no common area and the place just has 5 rooms. Also, the staff couldn't provide any information about Ipoh. There was no leaflets or anything of the sort either.

Bedroom was spacious and neat. The location is pretty good too.

There is a nightclub nearby and from around 12-3am you can hear the base.

It is centrally located and the room is like the pictures.

It could be noisy due to the night market, but it’s quiet after they are done. (The property provide earplugs)

It was very clean and comfortable.

I think the air conditioning can be improve. Very hot. Appreciate if you can improve.

The night market is very accessible from this location. Very strategic.

Sometimes a little bit noisy. And there were some stains on the blanket.

Good location, in the middle of Ipoh. Good room with everything you need. You can have a good breakfast downstairs at 9.30 AM.

The club nearby!!! They provided earplugs but best to avoid if you’re a light sleeper…

Clean and comfy room, there was also a night market right in front

Basically nothing because i really enjoyed my short stay

The room is small but cozy. It is located within the Gerbang Malam area but to my surprise the noise is quite bearable.

Nothing.

DoSomething Guest House 5 was nicely presented and clean. There was a fan as well as an airconditioner in the room which kept the room nice and cool. The night market sets up outside the door to the cafe. We found the sound of the fan with the airconditioner muffled any outside sounds and allowed us to sleep well.

The building itself has long history, shophouse looked to be renovated, so the soundproof is not strong enough.

It was really cosy place, and very convenient, you can access various type of food place nearby, convenience store as well. The staff were so kind and friendly.

Everything was really great. Just felt that it was a tad on the expensive side for a room that size.

It was very special to be able to stay up from a restaurant (takes me back to the old days). Despite being in the heart of a bustling night market, I didn’t hear any noise! The shower was great, the bed was comfy, the room temperature quick to my liking. Very quiet and peaceful. Very near the purple cane for quality Chinese tea and exciting tea infused food.

- 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.

- 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.

Great location by all the foodspots, great host and convenient check in and out

Was surprised that WiFi was not provided in this day and age at the guesthouse, but not a biggie since we were on a holiday so it was nice to get off our phones.

It was very easy to communicate with the owners, and they kindly allowed us to check in early as we took a night bus over to Ipoh. The location was convenient enough too (short walk to the old town and all the good food around!). The place itself was really cute and clean. We had a comfortable stay and would be back again if we're in Ipoh!

The only thing that I think can be improved and to make the money I spent here much worthy, is to add another mirror in the room and not only for the bathroom. Well, I ada rabun jauh, so it is a bit hassle to wear contact lens + make up with sink in between. I appreciate it if there's any mirror lah near the window to get the natural lighting too.

- Smooth check-in. We took the key from the owner at the cafe and the stairs to the guest house is inside the cafe. - The room itself looks good, very clean and the bathroom is nice as well. - We were provided with ear buds, so we kind of expecting for it to be quite noisy at night since there's a market there. Turns out it's not noisy at all. - Location is strategic. You can walk too if you want to go to the famous Concubine Lane etc, but with Msia's weather, we decided to go by car. - Overall, I am satisfied with it.
