Cititel Express - Ipoh, Perak

-
I just love Ipoh food. You will never go hungry in Ipoh. Whenever we travel back north, we will definitely stopped for a night in Ipoh. This is the first time we stayed at Cititel Express Ipoh and it's indeed a good choice. Front desk staff was very friendly and attentive. They deliver on their brand promise of providing smart, clean and simple accommodation.

We stayed in a superior queen room, comes with a queen size bed, in room safe, study table, LED TV, open wardrobe, 2 complimentary bottles of drinking water, 2 packets of milk tea, hair dryer, bathroom with hot / cold shower, wall mounted 2 in 1 shampoo dispenser, self controlled air conditioning and toiletries (shower caps, cotton buds and mini bar soap). Simple and small room without mini fridge but most importantly it's clean and comfortable.

 Complimentary high speed wifi access up to 4 devices per room. Hot & cold water dispenser is located at the pantry area on every guest floor. However if you need water jug / thermos, slippers, adaptors, tooth kit, extra bed, tour package, taxi / car rental and airport transfer, you may call housekeeping. We requested an extra pillow and maximum 3 pillows per room. You can have more pillows but additional charges applied.

I just love the hot shower. It was great. Hot water with high water pressure. Love it. Besides that, shower is separated from the toilet area with its own transparent cubicle. I like their wooden floor concepts too. Apart from that, you will never get bored staying here because there's multiple free movie on demand for you to watch. Movie category includes action, adventure, animation, comedy, drama, general, horror, kids, romantic, Sci-Fi and thriller. The only setback is the breakfast. Click here to find out more about the buffet breakfast.

Guangzhou/Shenzhen - Day 4/Day 1 (Luohu Commercial City - Dongmen Pedestrian Street - Sun Plaza)

-
Image
We had planned to check out of the hotel at 12pm and board a train to Dongguan at 1pm to meet with one of Ben's potential supplier. However, the plan was cancelled as the supplier was unable to make it and Ben only notified us after we checked out of the hotel at 12pm. In the end, we did nothing for a half day in Guangzhou and missed the opportunity to see his supplier in Dongguan. Our initial plan was to meet with his supplier in Dongguan and then take the train to Shenzhen. Since the plan didn't work out, we purchased a last-minute ticket from  Guangzhou East Railway Station to Shenzhen Station (Price - RM 65.74 per person for first-class seat). We had our lunch together with Ben at  Chuangshan Restaurant, which is located opposite  Guangzhou East Railway Station . I had goose with roasted pork, while my partner had chicken with BBQ pork. Roasted pork is tasty and goose is flavourful but has rubbery skin. Ben's friend joined us for lunch as well. However, we have to lea...
