Good hotel but not for TYPICAL traveler ”

About - as in pics it is old hotel - tradition bed, older than me furniture, single wall air con, bathroom with big water boiler and small water tank, old environment - so TYPICAL travelers hope for new hotel or least 2 to 3 stars then u can skip this as this is indeed old hotel imagine 80's or 70's. My experience - everything is OK as I not demand and want for a night sleep = price is good. Good location as in the middle of the town and next to pasar. Staff is helpful.

There are basic facilities inside big ceiling fan, an useless AC coz not really function, table, 80 century's big TV with one channel, really old fashion water heater still functioning yes, but I checked the bed sheet not really clean, cabinet Once was enough for this experience !

Outdated”

Old stlye bed. Room curtains torn down. Please dont list this kind of hotels in Agoda. Earlier when i called to the hotel request for late check in, the staff i believe is the owner is very rude replying cant hold booking for late checkin and hand up the phone. So i rushed from KL to Taiping manage to reach the place so can get the room, once i saw the room, I'd rather let go the room. So others can get it but i saw nobody check in the place around 7.30pm. Not worth for what we paying.

The hotel is near a lot of food stalls or restaurant, also good for a walk around the town. But the wifi was rather poor inside the room that I had to connect to it in the corridor. I would like to recommend you to try roasted chicken at Ayam Dindings below the hotel. Sangat sedap!

Roadside parking only”

Close to food

It was a simple room from the heydays of 1960's - 1970's and had remained unchanged. I am a bit concerned for fire safety, but other than that, I have no complaints. Staff was helpful, and helped stick on a parking coupon for me in the morning because it only has roadside parking, which requires a coupon for daytime use.

better for the building to be torn down for rebuilt. putting up in the room, tiptoeing into the bathroom and walking along the corridor makes you feel like you were in a dilapidated haunted house. rotted wood, rusted metal and the pillows reek super awful. paid for 2 days stay but we moved out to a different hotel in less than 3 hours.
