I'm absolutely thrilled with Brownstone Hostel. The value for money is simply unbeatable.
Highlights:
• Design: Beautifully renovated historic building with a fantastic loft feel.
• Cleanliness: Everything is very well-maintained and clean; you immediately feel comfortable.
• Atmosphere: Super relaxed and ideal for meeting people or working in the common areas.
Anyone looking for a stylish and affordable accommodation in Ipoh will find it here. Highly recommended!
The facilities and the service in the hostel are good.
The room condition is subjective.
1. The damage is not fixed before opening for the next customer use. Not affect the use of the room but is a bad presentation.
2. The curtain rail rack for the lower bed is not concealed, with a screw expose could cause the upper bed user easily get cut which happen to my daughter.
3. When renovation works are off, there is no immediate cleaning of the common area cause the whole place dusty especially the floor. I think the cleaner did come in to mop the floor later.
4. The noise from the neighboring nightclub hopefully they can be off before 2 am.
I have to be honest, this hostel is one of the best that you can find with this modest price, but excellent services.
First enter, the counter was having a good chat with a chinese, teen girl who traveled alone in Malaysia. The counter, who is a girl immediately served me as I wanted to place my luggage here before exploring Ipoh .
When i check in, around 2pm, (yeah i can check in before 3pm, this is a life saver), an uncle, who served me with care and gave me a tour with their amenities.
The amenities were amazing. You can play guitar if you do as they provided at the resting area. You can have a relaxing, comforting hot bath with shampoo and body wash provided. The pillows and bed were cozy...
The only thing i am unsatisfied is the attitude of the chinese traveler who sleeps beside me. I can hesr his whispers, saying rude words in chinese (maybe he is having a bad time in Ipoh i guess).
The rest, is awesome. If you are looking for a cozy place to stay with home's warmth and modest price, Miner's house is for you.
The host was very friendly and helpful, and the check-in and check-out process was smooth. Overall, it felt safe and welcoming.
Just a small note for future guests: this homestay has a “quiet hour” policy, which means you should avoid making noise — no music, no loud conversations, and try to keep your voice low in the room. During our stay, my friends and I received a noise complaint, even though we were not being loud. It may have come from another traveler nearby. So it’s important to be extra careful during quiet hours to avoid misunderstandings.
Overall, I would recommend this homestay to anyone looking for a comfortable place to stay, as long as you are mindful of the quiet hour rules
Hostel located in the heart of tourist spots. Famous eateries like Tuck Kee, Lou Wong are all walking distance. Superb location for an affordable price! Not to mention Suky was very helpful and attentive, she had reached out to me first on check-in details before I could ask her anything. The only down side of the hostel is probably the street noise. It doesn't really bother me anyway however those who need perfect silence to sleep will probably need ear plugs. Overall, I'm happy with the stay and will definitely come back again if I happen to visit Ipoh!

The room is clean and no stinky smell (which is very good!) and the staff help us to on the aircond before check in which is very considerate 🥰 the host there will also recommend the local food which we tried and taste nice. The breakfast there was nice too although not much choices but we rent a motor with the host so we went out for food hunting. The location is a bit far from town but shouldn’t be a big issue if you rent a motor/car there. Overall is good 🤗
The hostel was very responsive to all my requests. It a very cosy place and only 20 minutes walk from the railway station and food is plentiful around the hostel with 3 food courts just opposite the hostel.
if you guys coming here for healing and nak vibe island boy/girl you guys should stay here because literally depan pantai and another one is there’s so many kedai makan kat sini overall i give 9/10
