She has agreed with the booking availability and price. I have also paid the deposit and sent her confirmation with the total price agreed. However, in end of Dec 2009, she called me and said that she has wrongly told me the total price for the accommodation. She said she needs to increase another RM100 as it will be peak time during the cny 2010. She non-stop talking through the phone in order to stop me from talking. Then she said, if I want the apartment then have to pay the extra RM100 or else she just cancel the booking. </p> <p>She was so unprofessional to do that. She might have gotten another customer who want to book for the same date with higher price and that she forced me to pay another RM100. I was quite angry at that time but I tried to hold my anger as I afraid she doesn't want to give me back my deposit. Then after few days, I have received back my deposit and here I want to write my bad experience with this Mdm Tang. Hope that other people wont get cheated by her again. </p> http://forum.cameron-highland-destination.com/topic/4#post-36 Tue, 10 Nov 2009 15:11:41 +0000 chl222 36@http://forum.cameron-highland-destination.com/ <p>I went to Cameron Highlands on 6-Nov-2009. We rent the Brinchang Holiday Bungalow for 2 nights which cost us RM1200 per night.</p> <p>We rent the bungalow on-line. The description and photos of the bungalow seems like perfect and worth for the price.</p> <p><a href="http://www.bjaya.com/cameron_brinchangbungalow.html" rel="nofollow">http://www.bjaya.com/cameron_brinchangbungalow.html</a></p> <p>BRINCHANG HOLIDAY BUNGALOW<br /> All bungalow are equipped with quality fittings &#38; furnishings, suitable for<br /> family &#38; friends gathering. 5 bedroom, 5 bathroom, for 13-15 pax, Fully<br /> furnished, Astro TV program, Kitchen with utensil. BBQ pit.<br /> available upstairs only</p> <p>LOCATION<br /> Brinchang Town, Cameron Highlands<br /> 10 minutes distance to Tanah Rata Town<br /> My comment: Location is good. It is opposite Shell petro station.</p> <p>About the bungalow, I have several comments about it:-<br /> 1) I would describe the “Bungalow” as home stay because we are sharing the same building with the owner who stayed at ground floor. We paid RM1200 for home stay… sounds ridiculous, right? (See picture 1st row)<br /> 2) We need to walk upstairs by using staircase beside the “Bungalow” to enter the house. (See picture 2nd row left).<br /> 3) “All bungalows are equipped…” Sorry, only one bungalow available there. Surrounding is bushes and quarters.<br /> 4) It’s impossible to hold gathering in that “Bungalow” living hall because the actual living hall available on 1st floor is about size of one sedan car porch. Living hall showed in picture 2nd row right is located in ground floor, which means that occupied by the owner.<br /> 5) 5 bedrooms and 5 bathrooms are available. Bedrooms are equipped with new matress and clean window panel. But need to be aware that you might get cold shower during halfway showering. The hot water supply is not enough for 5 bathrooms operation.<br /> 6) Astro TV program is not available due to they didn’t pay for it. So end up we never turn on TV for that 2 days.<br /> 7) Kitchen with utensil??? Hmm… Kitchen size is small, it only able to fit 2 people in. Utensil means that one hob gas cooker, one spoilt rice cooker and dirty &#38; stained plates and bowls.<br /> 8) BBQ pit??? It’s only a Kuih Kapit stove that placed under the staircase.</p> <p>The most horrible thing is when we joke or laugh louder; the owner will walk up and show her face in front of glass panel door. Huh… no privacy at all! She shouldn’t rent out her upstairs if she cannot accept the noise.</p> <p>To me I feel like cheated. We are paying for Mercedes but we get only a Proton Saga.<br /> This is my small advice to any friends who want to rent this “Bungalow”. </p> http://forum.cameron-highland-destination.com/topic/4#post-24 Wed, 12 Aug 2009 11:22:41 +0000 jan 24@http://forum.cameron-highland-destination.com/ <p>Where is this Annie's House?

I pay the fuel penalty for this extra weight but I think I am better off buying a dozen at cheaper px and of course in case you NEED it anywhere or anytime....Also some water purifying tablets too...(Kiasu lah) </p> http://forum.cameron-highland-destination.com/topic/4#post-13 Sat, 27 Jun 2009 11:55:37 +0000 jan 13@http://forum.cameron-highland-destination.com/ <p>Equatorial Hotel will have water disruption on 12/July/2009? Well that's what the staff told one of my readers. Could be a routine water works department schedule maintenance. AFAIK the water shortage situation has been alleviated. </p> http://forum.cameron-highland-destination.com/topic/4#post-12 Sat, 13 Jun 2009 12:54:36 +0000 jan 12@http://forum.cameron-highland-destination.com/ <p>Dear Zai,<br /> Hope you will have great time up there in Cameron Highlands! I would want to go up there again soon. There weather in KL is so hot and humid nowadays. There is even talk of water rationing if there is no rain in the water cachement area. Do keep in touch! </p> http://forum.cameron-highland-destination.com/topic/4#post-11 Sun, 07 Jun 2009 04:01:28 +0000 Zai 11@http://forum.cameron-highland-destination.com/ <p>Hello Jan.am new to the forum .my family will be going to CH in 2 wks time.thanks for the valuable info on driving to CH.have been reading your CH website in preparation for this trip.We will be staying at Puncak Arabella. add; apt.http://cameron-highland.webs.com/home.htm..Can't wait to be there. </p> http://forum.cameron-highland-destination.com/topic/4#post-6 Wed, 22 Apr 2009 09:26:40 +0000 jan 6@http://forum.cameron-highland-destination.com/ <p>I guess in any trip, the first thing holiday goers check is to find out the accommodations. Which hotels, resorts, apartments, bungalows, guest house or even homestay place to stay? This choice is up to individual based on family size, budget, location, amenities, and convenience. Cameron Highlands got almost all types to choose, from cheap guesthouses with dormitory style accommodation, very cheap only RM10 per night! And of course the ultra luxurious like YTL Cameron Highlands Resort costing RM1000 per night! So where to stay? </p>
