What recent reviews say

Visitors consistently praise the clean, comfortable rooms and Kak Kiah's friendly, responsive approach. Location near Taiping Zoo and markets appeals to families. One note: the second bedroom has no AC, which matters during humid spells.

Based on limited recent reviews, so treat this as low-confidence.
