"We stayed in Majestic Room, when we arrived we were quite surprise with the space, they have a big common room to hang out and a huge balcony(common space) to chill, everything is very style and neat. But the best is their staffs, very friendly and helpful. We rented 2 bikes from the homestay and drove for 30-45 mins then one of the bike had flat tire and it was raining. They helped us to collect it later, we just locked the bikes on the street safely for them to collect so we could continue our exploration in Ipoh, and they even refund your bike rental money. Superior!! Thank Brownstone to help us has nice mêmories in Ipoh ❤️"
