6 Resorts in Johor Bahru District: Best hotel deals for 2023
A bargain shopper’s delight is just across the causeway in Malaysia, with numerous bus and train services available to ferry travelers across the border. The largest and most popular malls are easily accessible from the checkpoint and offer a blend of name-brand and knockoff shopping. Dig deeper and you’ll appreciate the city’s differences, good and bad, from Singapore, though rumors of rampant crime are overblown. Museums and places of worship abound, along with good dining for any budget. A new premium outlet mall opened just outside the city in December 2011, and keep an eye on the new Legoland Malaysia, slated to open at the end of 2012.

THE WORSE HOTEL I EVER STAYED
Reviewed By Jeffreylim79We check in to the hotel on 4 June 2022 around 10 pm. We got our room key (Tower 2, room 1444). As we enter the room my daughter was scared by the baby roaches running around in the toilet area. Then as we were about to take our bath, we found out that they only provided us with 2 towels (but during the booking we book a 3-person sharing room and we are charged for 3 persons). I called the room service and requested for an additional towel and waited for hours but they did not send it to our room. This is not all, the shower area was clog and as we took our shower the water rises as if we are in a flooding area. We complained this to the counter when we check out on the next day but till today they have not contacted us to refund or apologized to us for the unpleasant stay we had. THERE WILL BE NO MORE BOOKING OF THIS HOTEL FOR ME!!! TOTALLY DISAPPOINTED WITH THIS HOTEL.

COCKROACH INFESTATION!!!!!
Reviewed By itsphzlvsqNightmare. Room is infested with cockroaches crawling all over the carpeted floor & walls. Requested for a room change but staff said they closed a few levels due to cockroach infestation. No bath mat provided, some essential toiletries not provided and almost everything is run down.

One night stay in a quite place in Johor
Reviewed By Feisal_GhThe room was big for me. I got the 1 bed room apartment at one of the building which i am not sure which wing or which building i am at. I was not been informed by the reception what other asset or building does Pulai Springs have in its area as it was a big place and i did not know where to go at the first place until i ask someone where to check in. The signboard or information was not enough. Check in was quick as i have pre booked the room and fill up a few information. Room condition was clean but maybe a bit outdated. Television channel can be improved with more cable or can used the free MY Freeview TV. I did not spend much time wondering the hotel since i cannot run the next morning due to heavy rain. Breakfast was served according to the time slot given about 45 minuets. Breakfast was ok but can be more exiting. Its still a good hotel in a very quite place.
