The best thing about this hotel is the location, which is only a short distance from jb sentral station. It is apparently an old hotel judged by its design and architecture. I stayed on 21st floor, the room is clean and spacious, with large window and beautiful city view.

Old hotel, inside Johor Tower, if you walk to JB Sentral or Komtar it's quite close, around 5-10 minutes, for a clean hotel (but the name of the old hotel is of course the furniture and conditions are not as good as the new hotel) friendly service, can leave goods, tools showers and towels are provided, there are connecting rooms and the rooms are quite spacious and there are carpets, the price is cheap, but the construction of the RTS to Singapore is a bit noisy, in front there is also a food stall at affordable prices around 10 RM with 1 side dish and vegetables (buffet /take it yourself), passport is left behind and kept by the staff, oh yes, there is a deposit of 50 RM and tax of 10 RM (standard policy throughout Malaysia).

The hotel is strategically good close to central JB. Suitable for those in transit but there seems to be a musty smell. What about the floor carpet? And the room interiors are still old or classic in concept. Like all the beds too and so on.

Don't book this hotel! The lobby is really nice, the rooms are nice according to the photos, but the hallway to the room is very dark, stuffy and really not maintained creepy. The elevator is very old and lacks maintenance. The atmosphere is really creepy! For foreigners, a 50RM deposit charge is charged and returned + a 10RM charge is charged and not returned. The 10RM fee is not explained why it was not returned. What a very unimpressive and creepy experience.
