I stayed four nights at the Ipoh Boutique Hotel and didn’t manage to get one comfortable nights sleep. The bed was fine but the pillows were like rocks. The towels they supplied were grey and hard, and the walls of the room were damaged and filthy (R409) as was the overall condition of the hotel. My room was overrun with wildlife including a few beetles, mosquitoes and several ants, that took me a couple of days afterwards removing them from my suitcase and rucksack!!
But on a positive side, the bathroom, shower and Air Con unit was very good and the Wifi excellent. The location of the hotel was great, walking distance from old and new town but also very close to several local eating places.
I wanted to open the curtains to get some real light into the room, but they were jammed! But hey, it wasn’t like I was missing the Serengeti migration or something.
