When I asked for 3 instead of 2 room entry cards,  they said that they only had 2 per room, no more.

During check in the receptionist failed to inform us that the hotel offered 10% discount for Parkson card holder.

I did not try the WiFi as I already have a prepaid card with Digi.

b)  Hotel room 302 - card lock spoilt,  could not get it repaired,  used a metal key instead.

Impose RM200 recovery charges for smoking in the room.

There was some chaos over our credit cards not working on their machine, and then -- when we said we wouldn't pay for our rooms in cash, then suddenly one of our cards did work miraculously.

They did made a mistake of charging me $100 instead of just authorising the deposit.

While I did like the hotel, I was surprised that they wanted to charge extra for my daughter who stayed with me me in the room with my mother.

but hey look at how much they charge and then bask in the bargain you have found.

Hope they consider charging extra and offer complimentary breakfast.

The thing is that they charge per head if the amount of people staying exceeds what's mentioned on the hotel room.

Security 		:	8/10, OK, CCTV and digital Card Access room door
Cleanliless 	:	8/10, Clean, 412 toilet bowl has non removable stain
Facilities 	:	8/10, working table with table light, bed side table.

They charged the creditcard I'd used at the hotel and later alsoi tried to ch=arge the creditcard I used to secure the booking via booking.com.

To my surprise, they allow me to early check in without any additional charges.

Unlike most other hotels, French Hotel does not allow you to check out without returning both key cards, no exceptions.

have to buy a prepaid card top up to 50 buck , just to enjoy the 3g.

Wifi is limited to 2 devices and should you need extra blankets there will be a nominal surcharge.

I booked two rooms, one for hubby and I and the other were for our American friends as we wanted them to enjoy Ipoh's famous foods.

Excellent water pressure

The hotel is well-located, near to restaurants and within walking distance of old town across the river.

Room was clean, comfortable and well kept.

but the room is still maintained relatively well, still the clean room with hot shower that I expected.

Even after 7 years, the hotel looks just as good and the room was spotlessly clean and fresh.

It was a really really confortable and clean room.

For the price, the rooms were clean with comfortable beds.

We were unsure if the hotel rooms were clean, tidy and comfortable having seen the quite run down hotel exterior and surroundings.

This hotel room 401 is clean,even the air-cond is very cool.The bed is very good to slip.But only the bath shower is leaking need to replaced or repaired it.This hotel is very convenient place is on the town.The staff are also friendly and polite.The security guard personnel hotel is helpful and told us that parking outside opposite hotel is summons on 0800 am.He told us take the ticket coupon at front desk counter than park in front the hotel that have parking place there.I will come back here to stayed when come to Ipoh.

The room is modern, bright and in good condition

I like the design of the room which is very modern.

Location is great, affordable rates, nice modern rooms.

Quirky design, modern furnishing, contemporary setup, practical facilities, what more could anyone ask for.

I decided to turn in at 12 am and continuously hear my neighbour talking, going into the toilet and turning on the faucet.

however Windows sound insulation can be improved for its proximity with roundabout - maybe due to cars/motorcycles with illegally modified exhaust pipes.

The sound proof pretty bad, at night can heard guest talking and open the room door, morning can hear the housekeeper pushed the cleaning cart and pulled luggage bag sound by the hotel guests etc etc.

2. sound proofing was not good, was disturbed by noise in the corridor at night, disturbed sleep.

Spent 3 nights here and found few disturbing concerns with this place:

1.

Also with a mosque nearby, better noise insulation should have been installed.

might be bit noisy when football match is present.

The only thing to improve is to add more soundproof at any corridor level.

Very Noisy as you may hear fire bridge engine in out with Siren.

overall is good, just this time quite noisy as facing the main road, having firefighter siren, big bikes gathering down there during the night.

room clean, beds etc adequate for a livable stay except can hear people talkIng and laughing along corridor and next door room that wake you up in the middle of the night.

Likewise with sound insulation from outside noise e.g. motorbike

Downside: As was school holidays and with no sound insulation in the walls, was disturbed by noises(children screaming, running up and down) in the corridors at night.

We could hear music and speakers blaring from the nearby stadium for a couple of house at night.

there are rooms to improve, on the door hinge (quick noisy), sound proof (i can hear people talking out loud around 1am+ at the corridor, and the door lockset of the bathroom (likely not able to lock).

The only qualm i had was that the walls to the corridors are quite thin, and you can hear children and people running/walking/playing up and down. There are laundry and gym(?)

The walls are quite thin though, so you might want to consider to lower down your noise - whatever that would be.

Our room facing the Fire station and there are frequent loud silent from the firetruck.

From my 2 nights staying, everything was good except the cleanliness of the room and open bay parking.

Everything was good except the cleanliness of the room, my room was upgraded from superior to deluxe which i got the king size bed, the pool was great as it is in the rooftop.

Rooms are clean and spacious, all necessary amenities were provided, beds are comfortable.

This hotel has nice deco, clean room and toilet.

My arrival was promptly greeted, check-in process was smooth and superb cleanliness of my room.

The room is clean & very comfortable for sleeping.

Room is clean, well equipped with amenities.

The room was very clean and tastefully decorated with black and white theme.

Nice hotel, very clean for the room and conformable, have toiletries full complete set.

The room is clean, new and well maintained.

Cleanliness in the room can have more improvement especially the bedroom switches.

To my surprise it was tastefully decorated, room was clean and comes with all necessary amenities at a reasonable price.

Reasonable price, spacious and clean room.

Place is clean and room is spacious enough for two with lots of TV channels to choose.

The room was disgusting - ceiling paint is peeling off, floor is dusty, furnishing feels dirty and there are leftover tissue wedged in the between the sofa cushion.

Smoking their lives away without any regards for hotel image.

Staff are smoking the parking area in front of hotel entrance, it generates negative impression to the hotel guests

we tried to ignore and spray our perfume at first

Besides the cutted nail on the sofa was disgusting ..housekeeping must improve on this..Very disappointed

The tissue inside the toilet box is smelly due to wet and dry in it.

Out of three stays, two rooms had a musty smell.

There is also a weird smell in the night at the corridors like a never ending fart smell.

The sanitary service by IWK can be better.. 
Can have choking, leakage sewage smell along the walk way corridor.

1)There was a bad smell in the entrance and toilets.

Excellent room service with immediately to send & exchange 1 of bathing towel was a little smelling after made a complaint on phone call.

but a bit smelly when I walk into the bedroom.

Imagine lifting up the lid of the toilet, and greeted by urine stains from previous guest!!

-Those square black pillows, does the hotel ever wash them?They smell really funny and seem to have the sweats and feet smells of hundreds.if true, please dont put them on the bed.

but rooms are lacking in maintenance such as mold and rust stains in rooms.

The drainage was almost not working, water takes a good 15mins to go down even after I'm done showering.

The bathroom had this bad odour/smell smell after flushing the toilet bowl..Should have the full-length mirror attached to the cupboard, not just in the bathroom.

My only complain would be that their hot water doesn't last very long, max for a couple of minutes.

6, Sg Kampar White Water Rafting Malaysia, Terminal Freesia, Casa Dela Rosa, Cameron Highlands Jungle Trail No.

however the air cond is not cold and the water pressure is low.

Sufficient bottle of mineral water (one big and two small bottles) provided for each room.

but water kept wet the floor and we placed towel but doesnt sort out the issue, plus make it worse slowly the bad smell was develop make it really bad after that.. Next my dad's room on the right side next to toilet i can say very strong smell came from there like a strong smelly feet.

shower water temperature was very inconsistent,  from hot water become warn then cold water subsequently.

The toilet door needs to be improved so that the water would not splash out to the outer even is closed.

When comes to 2nd person to bath, I have to endure bathing with cold water. 3.

Hot water not even enough for a bath and have to take cold by end shower.

Shower only has 2 minutes of hot water before running out.

I booked 5 nights and 3 nights no HOT water when I showered.

The only downside for this hotel which I had experienced so far is their shower water temperature is not consistent, hot water for shortwhile then is become cold water all the way.

Volume of water heater is limited, not enough for two person shower !!

The Hot Water Shower In the Room is not Hot Enough.

It would have been an awesome hotel stay if it wasn't for the lack of hot water.

And oh ya, the water pressure in the shower area is very weak and hot water supply is not consistent while our family using it.

washroom outlet water flowing slow, and the water pressure not high enough.

The room water pressure is very low and sorry to say that no action has been taken eventhough I have complaint to the front desk.

but can be improve in terms of facility such as swimming pool need to clean at least 2-3 a week to prevent from greenish colour water in order to let the water look more clean

What I didn't like:
- No space for the luggage to be spread open for easy access.
