It was very dirty. The bathroom was particularly dirty. It was convenient that the bus stop was nearby.

Clean, good air conditioning. Rooms separated by thin partitions with gap near the ceiling. Noise may be an issue, but other guests were well behaved during my 6 night stay.

I had a fine stay for one night, just to catch a morning train (It's conveniently located near railway and bus terminals). So I wasn't expecting much, and the hostel largely delivered.The beds, plumbing and Internet were all reliable. But what the photos don't show you is that the "rooms" are in fact cubicles - the thin walls fall short of the ceiling. This allows the units to be cooled by central airconditioning units, which is eco friendly - but lets in lots of noise from neighboring rooms. It's certainly better than a typical dorm, but don't expect full privacy.

There was some sand on my bedsheet. Generally clean but no dustbin in room but one in the common corridor outsidde my room. I chose the location as it was in town area and close to where I needed to go to meet a few customers I made appointments with before my trip. It was also a nostalgic trip as I used to frequent that area when I was working in Ipoh town for 12 years.
