Anyone stayed before in Highway Budget Hotel Ipoh?

heyz..any budget hotel around cheras area? the one nearby leisure mall one ok or not?

Better add a little more and stay at Lucky Hotel in Ipoh.
Price at only RM78 and you can get a big spacious hotel room compare to the budget hotel.

I'm travel from KL, want to arrive at Penang on Saturday morning. Not prefer to drive at night. So I plan to depart from KL on Friday, and stay a night somewhere near Taiping. Any hotel suggest? Prefer to be cheap and near highway.

The 2 exits to Taiping town also far from town atleast 8km b4 Taiping. Thjose budget hotels located at Taiping Town itself.

Can try Legend Inn, Sri Malaysia & etc...

How about other exits which are on the North of Taiping? Any hotel located near the highway?
Thanks.

North Yes. Kamunting exit but D don't think the new hotel not far from Kamunting bus station is cheap. SSL Trader Hotel. Also ~ 8km from Kamunting toll plaza..Almsot similar distance if you enter from teh South to Taiping town area..There are lotsa cheap hotels in the Town ctr but other than Legend Inn & Sri Malaysia, dunno how's the condition of those pre-war style hotels

May i know what is the rate of tunes hotel? I currently checking it in the website but found no info

Tunes hotel is just like Air Asia-lah..If during promo you can get really cheap but on normal day avg ~ RM90- RM120..very seasonal..Just a random check ~ Jan 2011:

Welcome. ^^

Hi, i knew there's a pinned thread about cheap hotel in KL. However, the thread was kind of confusing as it did not state the rate of the room and also turned out to be a mess as all those luxurious hotel were included in. So may i know is there any good , cheap and affordable hotel for student like us in KL? I heard tune hotel was an ex- hospital , which mean the hospital might be haunted . >.< We don't want those hooker place that full with prostitution. Please help us, Thank you. *We are girls*

Well, locals in KL only know about the location as we don't stay there and also not sure about the condition. For price, just visit those website all call them..I know there are lotsa budget hotels surrounding Bkt Bintang (opposite KL Police station) and also surrounding Petaling st too..

For budget hotels for sure there are those activities..No choice. wan but those are also hotels those foreign backpackers love to go bcos it's cheap..

But we all are girls, so with such activities i don't think is ok. >.<
By the way, did you heard about this hotel?

Yes stayorange I hv posted on 1st pg too & even recommended earlier in similar thread you & your friend opened at Kopitiam Q&A. As i said, I dunno the condition but on the location, it is right beside Mc Donald Petaling street.

Very clean from what I saw & very boutique quality just like Tune.

That was prostitution area too.

haha the front part near stayorange not so bad-lah only the end of Petaling st, You can see lotsa middle aged pros walking around 7-11 and the few pre-war styled budget hotels..

So got that activity too? lol

Every budget or even some 1- 3 star rated hotels also got those activities wan lah..probably not by the hotel nmgt but by their staff!!

Even those 4-5 star rated you probably heard before raiding happening and pimping by outsiders to the hotels..famous cases of high class pimping normally at 5 stars hotels..

U can't really avoiding those activities..just ognore-lah. I stayed b4 at one of the budget hotel in Geylang Singapore (Family hor)..seeing old unker bringing in young pros...just ignore lor..but the hotel is clean & superb although right in the red light district

I see. But we are girls leh. Is not really good. haha

Dun worry-lah.

If really sked go for B&B style hostel or dormitories. I think Stayorange also having that. just double decker beds and seperated between men & women..For sure no such activities there since no private rooms..haha

What is B&B style? O.o
