The Brownstone Hostel & Space

Extremely friendly and helpful staff.

Liked Very friendly Staffa and chilled vibe.

Liked Rustic

An absolute amazing hostel, probably one of my favourite in SE asia.

Liked The Brownstone hostel is amazing for anyone who is travelling as part of a group or by themselves. I stayed here with a couple of people I had met while travelling around SE Asia. The staff were very accommodating, took us around the Cameron Highlands on a private tour in their car, had a recommendations board and had the cutest kittens running around during our stay. Not once did I feel unsafe, lonely or bored within this hostel, and the staff could not have been nicer (especially our tour guide for the Cameron Highlands, Ming). This is by no means a party hostel; it is a very chill and relaxed place to stay, which is exactly what I was looking for. The beds were extremely comfy and spacious as well as the personal storage which was very secure and big enough for all of my stuff.

Horrible.

Liked My experience was horrible. Room very bad smelled and staff confirm me that room bad smell. I dealed about canceled my accommodation with return my money with staff because is not was possible free room with private bathroom. After communications via booking they wrote me that doesnt aprroved my cancel room and after my more questions doesnt answer me. I dont recommend it !

Lots of Character!

Liked Stayed one night here on my recent SE Asia trip. The hostel has an old-time feel to it with lots of cool antiques scattered around the place. But don’t think this place is old and crusty; it’s very modern where it counts, like the dorms, the toilets and the kitchen. The dorm beds are pod-like with privacy curtains and plenty of outlets to plug your devices. The air conditioning was blissfully cool in the dorms, but the bathrooms are an open air concept, so can be a bit steamy depending on the weather. This hostel was a short walk to a great night market, and a 20 minute walk to the Old Town. An excellent choice for the backpacker in Ipoh.
