“The location opposite City Square Mall really defines the experience here; it's hard to argue with that convenience. Rooms are basic, and some wear and tear is apparent, but the proximity to the heart of Johor Bahru compensates for what it lacks in polish. If you want to explore the area, this is a reasonable base.”
