Couldn't connect to the wifi

The property is recently rebranded & refurbished. As such, the facilities are still relatively new. The room is spacious and comfortable, and comfortably fits a small family. There is a kitchen, a dining area and a living room, but no cooking utensils are provided. Location wise, it is situated in an older part of Johor Bahru, so transport is needed to access to retail stores and malls.
The breakfast spread is small but sufficient. I suspect it is sourced from an external kitchen.
The one area I hope the management can improve is security. The elevators do not require access cards so anyone can access the room floors. I hope this can be addressed.
4.3
I like the cleanliness and wide space.

No wifi at room. After reporting, the IT staff said they had changed to another company but front desk still gave us the old one. Seemed front desk didn't know what's going on at the hotel. Second, the door key didn't work twice (I just stayed for 1 nite). No F&B restaurants nearby and must take Grab for in & out....
4.3
Area was abit ulu plus didnt have much dinning, stores that sell foods around.
Room was simple but cozy
4.3
Nearby the checkpoint! Love how clean and simple the stay was. Will be back :)
4.3
Nice & very spacious studio suites for couple or family getaway. The room includes breakfast.
The only problem is for those light sleepers…..because there are many wild roosters around the area which start cuckooing as early as 3am
4.3
The rooms are spacious but quite noisy especially during early morning 5:00am.
4.3
Clean. Windy Environment. Good to stay.
4.3
Room is decent with the basic necessity but location of the hotel is really ulu and no shopping malls within walking distance. There is also no restaurant or cafe within the hotel.
4.3
Rooms are nice and spacious compare to other properties around this location.

First time 3D2N stay with my 3 children. Booked last minute because last minute planning. Got this good offer from the apartment via Expedia app. Fast check in & check out. Environment is peaceful! Simple breakfast given by the apartment. Food stalls & groceries shop via walking distance.
Wifi reception was bad! Hardly got any network for the whole day! Always lagging…
1 of the plug at microwave area is faulty!
The swimming pool is sandy & below the pool was many cigarettes bud laying around.
Need to improve on these above please.
Overall, the stay is pleasant! Thanks!

Nice place
4.3
Spacious and clean room. Bed is slightly hard.
There is a pool as well as kids pool.. small but still lots of fun.
Simple buffet breakfast but food is good.
There is nothing much around the area
4.3
Check-in was easy. Need a RM100 deposit tho. Requested high floor, didn't get it.
big apartment. Not the one I booked though. This apartment didn't even feature on the website. I booked a studio king. This was a weird 1 bed with the living room window looking onto the corridor which I didn't like. Was also a big security risk imo as someone could easily gain entry to the apartment.
No safe inside the apartment. Also, no pots and pans to cook. Pointless to say fully fitted kitchen when there's nothing to cook with!
Just 2 plates, bowls and mugs. Not even a glass!
Nice swimming pool on the 5th floor and small gym.
Apartment far away from the main town. Walked it once but took nearly an hour.
Convenient mini mart nearby. Wouldn't recommend the Indian across the street tho. Got bad upset stomach after eating there. Be warned!
TV only through the internet, which was down for the duration of my 3 day stay so couldn't watch anything.
No bedside light which made it awkward at night time. Good Aircon and comfortable bed.
4.3
No frills accommodation
4.3
Location is isolated. My advice is to stay away from this property unless u are oblivious to noise and ok to deal with early morning prayer chants and rooster calls starting from ard 3am. Beds are rock hard.
4.3
Limited dining
4.3
The hotel room is spacious, simple furnishing, but clean and cozy. The staff there are friendly too.
4.3
Great stay, the place is very clean and the room is huge. Great for family! Night time it’s quite noisy, dog barking. Staff is very friendly and helpful, would still recommend staying here. Awesome place!
4.3
Comfy place to stay. Well maintained room n facilities.
4.3
What you expect with the pricing. BF out dont expect wonders as the pricing. Rooms ok² only. Nothing to be expected.
4.3
As it was still new, was clean and in good condition. The room was spacious. Only grievance is the quality of breakfast. The nearby coffeshops have better range and quality. So lower your expectations if you decide to wake up early and have breakfast.
4.3
Clean space and great staff and friendly.
4.3
Great property for the price point that I had paid! Property was new and in excellent condition. No issues with cleanliness whatsoever and housekeeping came by daily, which was a pleasant surprise for a service apartment-like venue.
Saw some comments that it was a little far away from amenities, but it was a mere RM6 Grab ride from places like KSL city & City Square.
Had noisy chickens in the morning but not within the control of the hotel. Only grouses I have were that the bed was a little too hard for my liking & the wifi strength was not great.
Nevertheless, still a good stay and would highly recommend for families!
4.3
All good but the wifi is terrible.
4.3
So far everything is good , air con cooled enough, water pressure strong enough. Room lock was spoil, had to put a fire extinguish behind as a secondary security.
Breakfast was 2/5 star, lack of food during 9.30am already. Less table and chair. Even cup also less.
Slope going up car park was dangerous, bigger car like SUV or MPV need extra caution.
4.3
The staff is friendly and helpful but the internet is terribly sluggish.
4.3
The apartment is clean and the area nice and quite, mini mart and some food options within 5 min walking distance
4.3
I like everything here.
4.3
The room very comfortable. But the hot water not function well. My suggestion please provide 1 to 2 plates and spoon as well as iron since it is apartment.
4.3
Staffs are helpful. Cleanliness needs to be improved.
4.3
Overall a nice and spacious apartment. Clean bedroom, comfortable stay. No washing machine. Located a short distance drive from custom.
4.3
Don't expect too much! Booked 2 rooms and 1 was not even cleaned. Wi-Fi connection was hopeless. The Wi-Fi gets connected but no internet, we had to use our roaming. One of our room entrance door lock was spoilt so that added to poor security. However, the staff was great as he ensured our stay was comfortable even though with shortcomings. But definitely I won't be coming back here next time.
4.3
Overall is good. Room is big and comfortable. I just hope they may prepare some plate/cutlery/kitchenette in the room. Fridge cleanliness need to be notice as well.
4.3
It's near Lazy Monday, a relatively new Instagram spot for burgers, amd many 24-hour fast food outlets. Convenient for those who drive.
4.3
Good 👍👍👍
