A pleasant and convenient short stay
Pros:

A basic value for money hotel that is good for short stay. No cleaning or top up service provided during my two nights stay. Door closing in neighbouring rooms and rain can be heard despite no windows in my room but otherwise fine. Two shopping malls of walking distance away with many eateries around. The Indian lady (sorry didn’t get her name) at the reception was very friendly and helpful.

Pros:

Strategic place to stay, cleanliness is good.Staff also very friendly and will choose to stay again.

Near 7eleven and main road. Easy to access, parking is based on first come, first serve.

The air-conditioner in my room 208, is not been place near my bed, so a bit hot. but will choose to stay here again!

Cosy
Pros:

Three of us stayed in a family room which had 1 king-size bed and two single double-decker beds.The room was neither big nor too small. You may ask the reception to provide iron+ironing board, hair dryer and plug extension (since there is only 1 socket in the room). The hotel is located in a housing area in Ipoh Garden. Tesco and Aeon are 5-minutes drive from the hotel and McDonalds is a 5-minute wwalk from the hotel.

Amazing!
Pros:

For the price, this is a great hotel. Convenient to in expensive restaurants in walking distance. Free parking. Good internet. Staff is of top standard, close to Tesco and a short walk from a Kinta City Mall. No complaints. For the price, the room are clean and comfortable. Very happy with the bed. Just wished we had some English language channels on the television though. A very big thank you to the staff members of Art Cottage Hotel. They made our stay very comfortable.

Basic needs at budget price
Pros:

Stayed for one night and it suited our needs I.e. just a place to sleep. The hotel is very clean except that the towels were a little 'tired' and had a funny smell. You get what you pay for; there is no fridge in the rooms.

Not suitable for light sleeper
Pros:

Expects to stay in a partitioned room with no window, fresh air or fan (only aircond), with low quality of amenities. Good for those that are exhausted (that couldn't care less about noises - even whisper outside the room was heard clearly), clean room but please bring own towel (as the towel provided had a strong odor), and also blanket for those that cant stand the funny smell of it. Be ready to be woken up with noises from the toilet pump when the next door room uses their toilet, kids running and shouting to be heard clearly. Overall, it was okay, but it can be better. With the price, can easily top up Rm30-40 to get proper hotel instead of this shop lot hotel.

ART COTTAGE HOTEL, IPOH, MALAYSIA
Pros:

The hotel is being rated as 2-3stars*, and seems to be fairly NEW. It is on top of some shop houses and facing the main road. The décor is modern and the rooms are well kept. It follows the current trend of BOUTIQUE Hotels, which takes the trend set by IBIS Hotel chain. It is a small hotel. The staff are friendly and helpful. THERE IS NO DINNING facilities. The location is out from the main town centre; and transport scare. It is more suited for travellers with own transport. There are many eatries and two SUPER MART near by. Good value for money.
