More about 27 Ah Peng - Bentong At Your Doorstep




ABOUT THIS SPACE


Our place, 27 Ah Peng, is a vintage 2-bedroom property in the heart of durian country. It's within walking distance of Bentong's best food, and the dazzling Chamang waterfall and fruit orchards are only a few minutes drive away. Meet our friendly neighbours and rediscover old world trades amidst old shops, barbers & even a printing press. A block from the lively Bentong Walk night & morning markets, 27 is great for couples & family adventures - or you can just curl up on the sofa with a book :)


THE SPACE


Dating back to 1934, our vintage loft is a retro escape located above an old bookshop on one of Bentong's historical main streets. Bentong is a charming old tin mining town in Pahang, and is just an hour's drive by highway from Kuala Lumpur. Hong Kong classic film-inspired and with 1500 sqf to relax in, our place features two bedrooms and a large living & dining area. Just 100 meters away from Bentong Walk, cafes, restaurants, shops and the town market, you’ll be within walking distance of the town’s best food & places to explore.



GUEST ACCESS


There is ample parking along the street our unit is on. Guests can also park in the back lane behind our unit. However, if you are parking on the main street on weekdays, you will need to buy scratch & display coupons which are available at the bookstore directly below us. On weekends, it's free.



KINDLY NOTE


There can be some noise from the street as we are located on the main road - so we appreciate your understanding :) As our property is an old one, certain sections of the floorboards can feel a bit sandy despite being swept, vacuumed & mopped after every checkout. Our bedrooms are air-conditioned & we hope to install air-conditioning in the living area soon. By the way, we have a long staircase leading up to our unit, older folks & children may need a helping hand when enter. Lastly, our wifi works fairly well with most devices. However, speeds may vary.

Great location and deco”

Situated at the heart of the Bentong city, this retro style shop house is great for one night stay and explore the Bentong city and its food. Only thing you need to bear in mind is the street noise at night and early morning if you are a light sleeper.

Great homestay”

The owner of this homestay is superb. She is very helpful and caring. Most importantly the house or shall I call it “home” is very clean and you’ll get more than you expected. It is really made out of love, with attention to details and the setting is awesome! Perfect for family or a gathering. You can basically enjoy your stay there with plenty of space for you to organise your activities or to move around. Maybe you can opt sitting down and enjoy the relaxing musics and yes! The owner provides DVDs and CDs too😄 . The location is very convenient and you can park your car in front.

Location near to many eateries and a market. However, as it was on the road side, its very noisy. Car park along the road will get lots of sparrow shit on the car. House is very unique, good experience for kids to experience olden days house.

Thanks, Sieow, glad you and the family found 27 unique :) Apologies about the bird poo, they are not sparrows, by the way. We are not certain of the species, but they are migrating birds and have since left. Noise levels vary from time to time as we are on the main road, but happy to say we also have our share of quiet nights :)

Environment is really nice, but sleeping time surrounded is noisy”

Overall experience can have 70% marks. The good things is what u see in pics, is what you get. But what is not good is, surrounding cos nearby the road side, and it’s old building, old shop lots upstairs, the noice of cars and motorcycles when u sleep, is really loud. But if u say the surrounding of the environment, the shops besides all people are kind, even pharmacy / hospital / market / coffee and cake shop is just nearby. Rooms have air condition, but living room just have ceiling fan, so expect to be hot/warm while u gather in living room before go to bed. If u have more than a family to stay there. Pls be aware that they only have ONE toilet here. And if u prefer to walk around in the house without wearing shoes, the cleanness of the floor will be not up to expected. Coz our foot easily getting black even just right after bath. So, other than the noise at night, share toilet, cleanness of the floor and no air cond at living room, overall environment is quite comfortable.

Dissapointed ! Overrated !”

I wondered how they got so high score. My husband is from Bentong. Ever since our children grown up, we used to book homestay whenever we need to go back hometown as my in law's house not able to accommodate so many people. We have stayed different-different homestay for the past many years, and this unit is the worst that we ever stayed in Bentong. My daughter choosen this unit because of the vintage theme. But I can tell you nothing impressed us. The location is strategic by the main road. So we did expect the noise from the roadside. But when we arrived the 1st thing we noticed is the narrow and steep wooden old staircase. Upstair flooring also old wooden floor which is very noisy whenever someone walk on it. There are three pairs of paper type room slipper there. Three pairs for 5 persons ? So when the two of us walk with bare feet not even 2 mins our feet were so dirty, the floor was so dusty, then only we realised we do need something to put on. so both of us wear the clogs which placed outside the bathroom to walk around the house. Just image the sound of the clog walk on the wooden flooring. Secondly, there is not even paper roll in the house. When we bring our luggage into the rooms, Alamak! Mosquitoes were everywhere. I have to rushed out to buy toilet rolls and mosquitoes repellent. Not only that, we found insects and bugs on the bed and mattress. The living area has no aircon, even we on all the three fans you can still feel the heat from outside as the curtain was only partially cover the window. The most frightening is they put an red old umbrella at the end of the house outside the bathroom, just like the haunted movie. My children were so scare to go to the washroom at night. And one more thing make me so upset is when we came back from dinner with our relatives around 10pm, we found the staircase light was out of order. Imagine climbing up the narrow and steep staircase in dark carrying a

Dear Miss Ng, We would like to point out that all our furnishings are correctly reflected in our listing. It may be a good idea to read everything carefully before you book in future. Also, you sounded very cheerful when we contacted you, but on hearing that the floors were scratched, you suddenly seemed to not understand any of the three languages we spoke to you. Odd that you understood all prior English communication. Likewise the friend you passed the phone to. As we mentioned, we are not seeking any compensation from you. We called to point out the incident and to inform you that we would lodge a report to Agoda. It is they who will decide what action needs to be taken. We would understand if this had been an accident. However, we regret to inform you that bad behaviour from guests will not be tolerated. Also, may we suggest that you book a modern hotel in future as you as not everyone appreciates vintage. Thanks again for staying with us and our "dilapidated furniture." :)
