It was kinda hard to find this place, since its hidden behind a big luxury hotel. The staff are chinese and can speak english. The room was clean enough (RM15!!!) and the area was quiet at night. A good place for the small budget!

The place is OK since it's quite cheap! BUT the owners of the ideal traveller's house are BAD, especially the son! Be CAREFULL when they want to drive you somewhere. the fee is quite expensive ! They charge you more! Be carefull!

We decided to stay at this place, based on recommendations regardless of the terrible reviews we could find on different websites. Well, that was the right choice. The location is just right. A few minutes from the night market, the central market and the bus terminal. And one minute from very nice stalls at night. The set-up of the guesthouse... More

Honestly, it's a dump and the friendly owners don't seem to notice the... More
