First of all, this is not our first trip to Langkawi. So, we are not so keen about the beach and about the aqua activities. We travel with kids, 2 yo & 3 mo. 1. This hotel. BJ Bayview Inn was more like a homestay/ motel like environment on the outside. A countryside feel and very homely. I like it very much. The best thing about BJ Bayview is: - it has swimming pool. small one, yes small. one for kids & another for adult. I think this is the first time I saw a motel with a pool. - it has a semi-auto Washing machine!! YesI was very happy to see the washing machine nearby the pool. Which is free of charge. - the owner is very soft spoken and very friendly. - away from the busy city. 2. The room. We took 2 rooms, with 2 double bed, it was very comfortable and very cozy. Despite the outside look, the room has a very hotel like feel. As of Nov 2016, everything is still new, and very well maintained.The room and bathroom was separated with a sliding door. It is very spacious. we had a good night sleep. We have rest well & sleep tightly. 3. Parking Exactly at the door step. 4. Cafe There is a small cafe near the pool, but we realized that on our last day, so we have not tried the food yet. We chose BJ Bayview Inn for a comfortable stay & to hideaway from the busy city. If you are looking for a hotel near the beach, this is not the place. And if you're looking for a hotel near restaurants, groceries and markets and bars, This is not it. But, if you're looking for a comfortable stay with an unreasonably cheap price. This is the place.
