Ipoh Manhattan Free Waterpark 3BR 8pax Family Suite Mha308 by City Home Empire

The location is really convenient, with plenty of food and shops nearby. My room was pleasant and quiet, unlike what other reviews say. Maybe that’s because mine faced the back. My main complaint was the man in charge of breakfast. He was very unpleasant and had lots of complaints about management. He spent 15 minutes telling me about them without ordering my food, so I had to wait even longer. He also asked me to include the complaint in my review so management would help him do his job better. Parking is another issue. There’s street parking, but the basement lot is extremely cramped, and its entrance slopes down at a strange angle that can scratch your undercarriage.

For RM350, our double queen room was comfortable for the night, and the water pressure was good. The hotel’s free parking is limited, but if those spaces are full, there are plenty of municipal parking spots around the hotel.

The bathroom was clean, and the room worked well for what we paid. It was also handy being near central Ipoh. My only real deduction is for the dim lighting. A smart TV would be a nice addition too.

The main problem was the noise outside at night. From about 11 p.m. until 4:30 a.m., mat rempits were racing right in front of the hotel, and I only got around two hours of sleep. You can even hear people talking in the street below, so the soundproofing needs work. I hope management considers improving it soon. Apart from that, everything about the hotel was fine.
