I had a pleasant stay at this hotel with its clean and spacious rooms. The location is great, just across from a mall, making it convenient for shopping. However, the breakfast could improve in terms of timing and variety. While the value for money is decent, some noise from the highway was noticeable at times.
Rooms

The rooms were clean, spacious, and definitely Instagram-worthy, though they face the highway, which meant some noise seeped in when the windows were open. Also, there was only one mirror located in the bathroom.

The service was generally good, with friendly staff around, although I didn't explore many shops or commercial services offered.

The hotel is positioned conveniently just opposite R&F Mall, and there's an easy walk through a bridge. It was also near CIQ, which is a plus.

Breakfast was a bit lackluster and could have started earlier than 8 AM, especially for those needing to check out early.

I had a good stay overall at this hotel. The rooms were clean, spacious, and offered good value for money, although they faced the highway, which meant some noise could be heard, but it wasn't too disruptive. The location was super convenient, right across from the R&F Mall, making it easy to explore. However, the dining options were quite limited and could use some improvement.

My stay at the hotel had its ups and downs. The rooms were clean and definitely Instagram-worthy, but I had to switch rooms due to a lingering smoke smell. The location is great, just opposite R&F Mall and convenient for reaching JB CIQ. However, the dining options were pretty limited, especially since breakfast starts a bit late. Overall, it offers good value for money if you're focused on location and room quality.

I had a great stay at this hotel, which is conveniently located just a short walk from JB Sentral. The rooms were clean and comfortable, making it a good value for money. However, the dining experience left a bit to be desired with limited options, and the breakfast timing could be better. Overall, I'd recommend it for its location and comfort.

The hotel has a really great location right across from the R&F Mall, making it easy to get around. My room was clean and spacious enough for my family, although there was some noise coming from the highway. The staff was friendly and accommodating, though the breakfast options left much to be desired. Overall, it's a decent choice if you're looking for value for money, just don't expect a gourmet meal.
