Rose Holiday Apartment

Getting into this apartment community from the morning market is terrible. Tourists park on both sides of the road, causing major traffic jams. The common areas need better maintenance and cleaning. The location is still a great choice if you want to walk from your accommodation to the morning or afternoon market.

The apartment was clean and had everything we needed, and it was a nice, cozy place once we got in. Getting there was a mess, though. The owner didn't know about our reservation even though we'd made it nearly four months earlier. We spent two hours waiting in the parking area and calling, while being told we couldn't stay. After a few calls, we finally got the keys from the parking lot guardhouse.

The apartment itself was very clean and tidy, with lots of pillows, comforters, extra beds and other things. It has three bedrooms and faces the mountain and vegetable farm. B-4-4 gave clear directions for getting to the homestay, which was helpful. The building looks old, though, and the road in is a narrow slope. The only way to reach it is a small road in front of a crowded market. I'd give the building three stars.

For a getaway in Cameron Highlands, this is an affordable place to stay. The entrance can get crowded, so expect some traffic. Apart from that, it gives you an adequate roof over your head.
