    Location - a little difficult to walk through some areas due to RTS.

    No frills; basic for a one-night stay. Breakfast included.

    They told me that if we check-in after 7pm the room would be subject to availability, even though we booked it with a card guarantee and payment on-site. I didn’t appreciate this bad faith, the room was already non-refundable.

    Central location, cleanliness, breakfast

    - Rooms walls were a bit thin, but didn't really affect us - Shower curtain instead of glass door as a divider - Would be nice if there was another mirror and hangers

    - Good size for 2 people room - Overall clean room and good facilities - Pleasant stay for 1 night!

    The aircon filter might need a change. When I turned on the aircon, the air from it feels like in an old car.

    The location is convenient for the border crossing. It is only a few minutes walking to the JB Sentral. You have to use an overhead cross bridge to the other side of road in order to get into JB Sentral. The pedestrian cross has not had an elevator. We had to use GrabCab. The hotel staff could not provide the exact name of the JB Sentral for using GradCab. I would expect they should be more knowledgeable for this information. The hotel is clean and well managed. We feel safe. With breakfast, it provides good value for what we have paid. The range of the breakfast is good. We are really appreciated for having the breakfast in the hotel before crossing to Singapore.

    We did not know how to walk from City Square Mall to the hotel. We had to take grab each time. It would be great if there would be a map for walking directions from checkpoint to the hotel.

    The room has a good size 25sqm, staff was very nice, attentive and accommodating (there was no fridge in the room, we bought fridge stuff and the staff agreed to keep for us overnight).

    I wish there was a mini fridge for those who want their bottle of water chilled.

    As it is relatively a new hotel, everything is in great shape. Room is very clean and comfortable. Breakfast was simple and it definitely filled our stomach, plus the food is good. Simple and hearty and delicious.

    Not very clean.

    It’s really near CIQ. The whole hotel actually looks really decent even though the surrounding not so much, probably due to ongoing constructions nearby.

    Can hear a bit of traffic noise from outside. It is not overly loud, but those who are sensitive to noise and need a very quiet place to sleep may be affected. Even though location is close to CIQ, cars have to make one big round to get to the hotel entrance, which increases travel time.

    Close to CIQ. Good value for money. Simple and clean, no complaints.

    Great hotel, no-frills. Clean rooms with good acoustic soundproofing. Value for money as price includes breakfast. Location is quite close to CIQ on the map, but due to ongoing construction roadworks it took a while for the taxi to find the hotel. Would return for a weekend trip.
