Reviews of Makotel Hostel Ipoh 1 stars

Mostly clean and great location, best is the earplugs for the noise outside

No one was there to help checkin, neither did answer calls. I went ahead and self checked in. Only later did he show up

It was calm and clean, has maaaany clean and hot showers and toilets for females only, a perfect location, and the people in charge were so nice and respectful, the beds were comfy and had their own curtains and you get your own locker, I’d certainly book there again.

The beds were a little bit squeaky, but it’s not their fault.

Clean and tidy

Upon check in there is no staff at the counter have to wait long time to be serve...call the hp...unfortunately the was on the table..rang the bell still no one answered...bad experience during check out...same experience..should call the staff from the bed..

Clean environment as per pictures, big storage to store my bag in the room with key provided (not recommend for big luggage), water dispenser and fridge also provided, car parking in the basement (limited parking)

Air con feel warm

The place is nice cuz near many restaurants and viewpoint. The environment is comfortable and clean. The staff, Asif, is approachable and polite, providing satisfied service.

The shower and the living area. It is huge.

the curfew of 11pm... I understand that it is for the safety of everyone. but as a traveller we normally stay outside to experience the night life at the area

Each facility has enough space. 8showers (maybe more),6toilets.and more than 10 washing basin.So I never waited to use toilet and never worried about how much I taking shower. Dorm room and common space are also wide. I didn't have to worry about my stuff getting scattered around. Staff are so helpful. They gave me a very useful map,those are mostly walking distance and located old town. So this hostel’s location is perfect.I enjoyed city walk with this map! I want to recommend this hostel those who want to visit Ipoh with affordable price.

The toilet seat is low(lt’s not that serious) I got use to it, its just funny.

This is a really good hostel, one of the best I've stayed at in Malaysia. The staff are friendly and helpful. Very good facilities, separate women and mens bathrooms, with plenty of showers which is great. Good location within walking distance of the main attractions in Ipoh.

Only issue was the noise due to the mosque very early in the morning; this isn't the hostel's fault though and they do give you some earplugs.

Got plates and forks that are free to use, free to use their umbrella, like their celebrity poster on the wall, they share Ipoh famous places to go and eat, it is very helpful and enjoyable. 🥰

A bit noisy at night, some motorbikes pass by the road beside the hotel, but they provide earplugs.

Clean and comfortable with parking lot, staff (Asif) very helpful. Can walk around without driving, great location

The manager Asif is extremely kind, helpful, and professional in every way. A/C in the dorm and hot showers worked perfectly. Hot and cold water available for drinking.

Very spacious, clean and well organised hostel. Comfortable beds with curtains. I am not sure, but I think there are at least 10 showers only for females. Super convenient! The receptionist is so professional and helpful, shared with you all the helpful information about Ipoh. Highly recommended!

There are large spaces for communications and chit-chatting, a single bunk bed full of private space and locker. Spacious toilets and shower regions. A great experience in this hostel, excellent location within walking distance to downtown and railway station. Wonderful experience ✨

I had a really nice stay during my time in Ipoh. The owner is very friendly and helpful, and the facilities are really good. Lots of showers and toilets, never had to wait and given a towel when you arrive. I extended another night as very comfortable.

There was a bit of noise from outside but you are given earplugs. Only woken up once by the call to prayer at 5:45am, but this isn't the hostels fault.

Instant beverages can be bought at the reception. Friendly staff

Hostel is located a stones throw from Ipoh Railway station. There are many eating options nearby in the day time. Asif is extremely warm and welcoming. The Hostel has an extremely large common area and the dormitory, bathroom and toilets are very clean. The prices during the period of my stay is great. Should I be in Ipoh again, this hostel will certainly be on the top of my list.
