"The location is great. It is just 15min from JB CIQ. There are many food options and Jaya Grocer is available for other needs. Staff are extremely friendly and helpful. The room is extremely comfortable with lots of amenities. Main complaint is the noise. I stayed on the 13rd floor on Friday and Saturday. The motorcycle noise from the road (apartment facing a major road) is unbearable. It continued until 2 to 3am on both night. I initally thought there was a F1 bike race but it is just heavy...

"Room was clean, location was fabulous close walking distance to mall with groceries and food places, close to ciq bridge to JB central station. Kitchen was good when you have kids but we were unable to use hob, the provide you an electric hot plate to cook on. Also only give one key card, and we had to plan how we went out and time it together with my partner. Communication via WhatsApp with host was excellent very friendly and helpful. We would probably come and stay again."
