Clean, large rooms at a very good price. Within walking distance of a new shopping mall. Good view from room looking across the strait. Bed was way too hard, making sleeping difficult. The next day we both had sore shoulders, hips and backs. Ironically this meant we had to stay in our room to recover, sitting up on the hard bed and waiting until we limbered up enough to walk.

The room smells of moth balls and rhe furniture is dated. No toothbrush provided. Only all in one soap.

When I arrived, I asked the receptionist if there are any rooms available for the night. He told me straight face ''sorry we are fully booked out''... I recalled earlier, before I went to the hotel, I have checked on Expedia site, that there were still rooms available. Then I walked outside the hotel and check again on Expedia. I saw there were rooms available, so I booked it and paid for it online. Then after receiving the confirmation, I return to the reception and told the receptionist that I have a booking and showed my booking number. The receptionist immediately change his tone and told me he could still get me a room, but they are over booked. A liar.

Like its quite environment

The room was okay but breakfast place is dirty and the breakfast menu was really basic. They even served nasi lemak & bihun bungkus? Terrible

Live up to its name

This hotel location is right by the straits so you can literally have a view at Singapore across it. I believe it has undergone some uplift so the hotel condition is really good. The room is also spacious and comfortable. The breakfast is tasty although not too many options are given but we're contented enough. They also deliver a newspaper to you in your preferred language in the morning (Which is rare in this price range) and it's so easy to park here if you're driving. With all of the above being said, I've made a rebook with this hotel for our next visit to Legoland because it's only a 15 minutes drive there.

Low cost. Nice View

I arrived a 3am. Desk was manned and check-in very smooth. Downside was the leafblower at 8am..

not many choices in the breakfast spread. Fruits could be included in the spread

Just good compare to price.

Cheap and clean. But, noisy during the night. Because this hotel is located just beside the 4 lanes way. And, I stayed at end of ground floor. WIFI was not able to use. But, I could accept all about these. Because the price was so cheap!

The hotel staff was very friendly. The check in were done smoothly. Request was fulfilled. The room was comfortable enough and cleaned. Would love to come back again 😍😍

Very quiet, cozy and comfortable.

Affordable Hotel in JB

Friendly staff and peaceful stay

It was nice staying here, big, nice rooms, clean sheets. Neat place and friendly staff. Just below there is food. Good parking and near to city square.

Very pleasent. Friendly and helpful staff. Nice seafood restaurant and bar.

Friendly staff, neat and well-located place.

The front office was very good, check in was smooth. The room is nice and spacious. Nice parking. We loved the place and will visit again with family and friends. TV channels has kids friendly and news channel. There is little fish aquarium breakfast was good and sumptuous. The suggestion is to add baked beans and some options for vegetarians. In all value for money and happy customer.

Just an OK hotel

Hotel is ok for just a night stay or so or for people without family. Facility and room is run down.Windows are not really soundproof and traffic from highway adjacent to the hotel can be bothering. Nice view away from city with eateries nearby.

quite and calm place to relax.

The hotel is nice to stay away from the crowds. Location is out skirt. Need to call uber services. Breakfast is very local orientated. Anyway i have a peaceful sleep through 2 nights.

Nice hotel. Clean. Pleasant staff. Good parking.

Generally clean. Good space. Pleasant staff. Great parking. Nice, simple breakfast.

You could do a lot worse

It was as expected. You get what you pay for. The hotel staff were really good, please and thank you go a long way in Malaysia. but the hotel is old and tired. Never the less it was perfect for me. Location also was good. 10/12 rm to JB central in a cab. If your looking for somewhere that is not in town, quiet you have found it

It was good, close to town.

It was a good location very quiet and peaceful and relaxing.

A nice place to stay,peaceful,quiet,

It is a nice place to stay due to quietness and peaceful and the staff too are pleasant and obliging except for the breakfast which was the same menu for all my three days stay.

Not many sightseeing in proximity. comfort stay and simple breakfast.

So so

Facing garden and sea view, near to the city, room so so. Served very simple breakfast.

surprise charges

Convenient and clean hotel.

It was very comfortable during ourcstay there.

Clean and spacious hotel

It is not new but value for money. Clean and decent

Very comfortable and cleanliness is awesome

A smooth checkin. Cleanliness is superb. Bed was surprisingly clean (based on my previous exp around other places). Almost all was a pleasantry experience. Just a note, for security and peace of mind, an extra lock at the door, will be good. Other than that, everything else was good.

Good hotel, close to the city centre.

Convenient location, plenty of parking space and close to city centre and the causeway to Singapore.

Good view simple hotel

Overall is good. Reasonable price. Only find pillow to soft and there only 2 in the room.

Could be great, but needs maintenance.

Rooms clean but in need of maintenance. Paint on wall from mirror scuffing, tired curtains, etc. Sheets probably at the end of their life. That said, nice view and generally comfortable.

uncomfortable that reception can view inside the room with cc camera

room was spacious, however breakfast are bad. overall i enjoy my stay!

rest and relax

greenery and breezy

No frills hotel

This is really down- to- basic hotel.. The buffet breakfast included is acceptable except that they do not replenish the fried noodles/rice when it is finished. Therefore, many of us that have our breakfast at 9am will find a chafing dish, with a few grains of fried rice and some broken string of noodles. What is left are bread, jam, butter and eggs and some fruits.

Decent Option

No basic toiletries. But otherwise nice for the price. Good location.

Value for money

The address given brought us to another place. I had to call the hotel to get directions. Other than the small adventure, the stay was pleasant. The room was clean and spacious. Value for money.

Spacious room, not much things but just like how you expect from the price. Overall, very satisfied for me.

The best hotel in JB

love it

Normal

Breakfast need to be improved

Sarapan ala kadar.

Bilik Selesa. Sarapan yg disediakan kurang memuaskan. Tiada pilihan. Hanya sekadar utk lapik perut sahaja.

非常不推廌

房間霉味很重，床單不乾淨...
