Reviews and Ratings
Despite some major issues with the service and cleanliness, the hotel did have a few positive aspects. The rooms were extremely dirty with stains and cockroaches, and the service was quite disappointing with stolen items and lack of proper cleaning. The location was not safe and inconvenient for transit, and the dining experience was average. However, the hotel did offer a variety of dining options and had some good facilities available.
The hotel is centrally located, making it convenient for travelers, but it lacks nearby dining options and has some room issues. The service could be improved, and the dining experience falls short on weekdays. However, the location is practical, being close to malls and the city's customs, and it does offer some complimentary amenities.
The hotel had its ups and downs. The rooms were not initially comfy, requiring a call to room service for bedding change and floor cleaning. There was a noticeable smell as well. On the positive side, the service was a mix of unfriendly and rude interactions alongside very nice encounters. The location was a bit inconvenient, far from the city center and lacking clear directions to nearby facilities. The dining experience was acceptable but could be improved. Overall, the facilities offered were decent.
The hotel has some cleanliness issues in the rooms with dust and leftover items, but they are spacious and comfortable. The service lacks attention to detail and privacy but offers some helpful gestures. The location is convenient with nearby shops and restaurants, although the breakfast selection is below expectations. The facilities are adequate but not outstanding.
My stay at the hotel was a mixed experience. The rooms were clean and basic, suitable for a short stay, and the convenience of the car park being in the same building as the mall was a plus. However, the lack of nearby dining options was a downside, requiring a 15-20 minute walk to the city square. The location, close to many local eateries and behind Grand Blue Wave JB, was a highlight. The service from the hotel staff at the convenient shop was excellent and very kind, with quick responses to any concerns. The dining experience could use improvement in terms of food taste and standard. Overall, a decent stay with some room for enhancement.
I absolutely loved my stay at this hotel! The location is fantastic with easy access to buses and trains to Singapore, and the food truck right beside the hotel was a delightful surprise. While it's a bit far from the city center, it's a short walk to City Square and the bus interchange near CIQ for more dining options. The proximity to JB Sentral and CIQ made traveling a breeze. The rooms were clean but had some issues with blood stains, similar to what was shown in the hotel's photos. The service was average, with less friendly front desk staff after hours. The dining experience at the café offered a variety of fresh and tasty options for breakfast, although I found the homemade biscuits a bit lacking. The facilities were decent overall, providing everything needed for a comfortable stay.
The rooms were not well-maintained, with dust and small cockroaches present, giving a somewhat rundown feel to the accommodation.
The hotel is conveniently located near JB Sentral, making it easy to access mall, restaurants, and the town center. The rooms were decent but a bit too quiet. The service was lacking in friendliness and sometimes unhelpful. The dining experience was subpar with limited breakfast options. However, the strategic location near the train station and checkpoint was a plus.
The hotel's location is central with good access and walking distance to JB Central, but heavy traffic can be an issue. The rooms were smelly and not clean but met expectations despite the mix-up of bed sizes.
The hotel is definitely not the cleanest place I've stayed in, with rooms that looked like they hadn't been properly cleaned since the 90s. The service was a bit hit-or-miss, with some staff being friendly and helpful while others rudely expected guests to handle their luggage. On a positive note, the location was convenient for transportation, but a bit dark and lacking nearby facilities. The dining experience was surprisingly good, offering a variety of dishes and great value. The facilities were decent but nothing extraordinary.
