The room isn't huge, but it doesn't feel cramped either. The hygiene is excellent, and the customer service is warm and friendly. Check-in and check-out were quick and easy. The hotel is integrated with a shopping mall, which is super convenient for grabbing food, getting a massage, or a haircut. However, the massage within the hotel was a rip-off – the environment wasn't clean, and they cut corners on the service. It was supposed to be a 90-minute massage, but it ended in just 70 minutes.

The Amari Hotel in Johor Bahru is located in a very strategic and convenient area. Most major facilities and shopping complexes are within a 10‑minute walking distance, making it easy to access food, retail, and entertainment without needing transportation. Cleanliness: Overall, the hotel maintains good cleanliness standards. However, some moss can still be found on the windows, especially those facing the swimming pool. Despite this minor issue, the general cleanliness of the hotel is satisfactory. Internet Connection: The Wi‑Fi connection is not stable. It frequently disconnects, which can be inconvenient for guests who rely on a steady internet connection. Parking: Parking is not free. Guests are charged RM12 per day with multiple entry allowed. However, parking is complimentary if the booking is made directly with the hotel.

At least 8 out of 10 starts for this experience. Pros: Excellent location, right above the R&F mall. Kitchen is complete with adequate kitchenware. Comfortable stay for a 1-bedroom apartment. Felt very cosy (attached photo). Easy enough to check in and out following whatsapp directions for the mailbox. Customer service was responsive with my questions. Also the price for 1 night was excellent at only about $61 SGD, and this seems to be the cheapest among all 1 bedroom offerings on Trip.com for R&F Princess Cove. Cons: On a minor note, air-conditioner in the living room was a bit loud (some noise) but otherwise worked fine. I did not use the oven in the kitchen but there was a sign saying it was not to be used. The most unfortunate part of the stay was small bugs/cockroaches in the kitchen/toilet area, I otherwise would have given it a 10/10 for my stay there. I don't believe it is a hygiene issue though as the rooms were observed to be clean, not sure where the bugs are coming from but there is spray provided.

Each train has a limited capacity of approximately 320 passengers, which contributes to high demand and frequent sell-outs. The service operates on a fixed schedule, offering little flexibility for travellers who require spontaneous or last-minute travel options. In addition, passengers must adhere to strict boarding procedures, including arriving early to complete immigration and security checks.

This is a long-standing five-star hotel in Singapore. I stayed here for eight nights this time. It's my top choice for business and family trips to Singapore, offering great value for money. **Excellent Location** The location is superb. Right opposite the hotel exit is an MRT station. Although it's not a major line, it's convenient to get anywhere with a quick transfer. Within five or six minutes' walk, there's a large shopping center, The Great World, which has plenty of dining, shopping, and local specialty food options. The surrounding area is also a hub for tourist attractions, easily reachable by taxi or a few MRT stops. **Hotel Design** Given its five-star heritage and recent renovation, the rooms and hotel interior are very new and spacious. I was particularly impressed by the in-room coffee machine and water dispenser. Enjoying a rich cup of coffee while getting ready in the morning [smiley emoji] is a lovely touch. **Hotel Facilities** The swimming pool, gym, conference rooms, and restaurants are all well-equipped. **Service** I didn't get much chance to experience the service as I came back late and was out all day. My only minor complaint is the poor soundproofing. Perhaps it was because I was next to a door that seemed to lead nowhere, and the opening/closing sounds were loud. I could also hear cleaning staff making noise in the mornings. However, the front desk handled it very well, and they were much more careful afterward.

The hotel's location is excellent, with convenient transportation. It's right next to Funan Mall and very close to City Hall MRT station. Just one stop to Raffles Place and you're at the Asian Civilisations Museum. St Andrew's Cathedral is directly across the street from the hotel, and there's a 7-Eleven right opposite the hotel entrance. The Old Hill Street Police Station, Central Fire Station, and Fort Canning Park are all within walking distance. The hotel lobby is on level L, and the doorman is very patient and helpful with directions. The check-in staff all speak a little Chinese, so there's no need to worry about communication issues. The check-in process is pretty standard. The room was clean and odor-free, though not as big as I expected, and the bathroom was quite small. On the first night, I discovered the hairdryer was broken. I wanted to call the front desk to get it replaced, but then I found out the phone was also broken! 😂 😂 On the second day, someone came to the room for repairs, and the efficiency and service were both excellent. The hotel breakfast selection was quite limited, but there are plenty of great food options inside Funan Mall, so you might not need to book breakfast. My husband quite liked the hotel gym, which was decent. When checking out, I asked the friendly gentleman on the ground floor to help call a taxi, and he personally carried our luggage to the car. The service was really good. All in all, the value for money is pretty decent!

However, it's conveniently located, and the 7-Eleven next door is more expensive than at the airport or tourist spots.

Pros: Very close to VivoCity, just across the road (though you'll need to cross a few traffic lights). Other than that, there's not much else to write home about. The biggest problem is the excessive noise! The sound of vehicles (likely motorcycles) on the road at night is incredibly 'refreshing' – I've never had trouble sleeping before, but I was woken up multiple times. If you're a light sleeper, definitely avoid this place. The bed is also very high, so it's not suitable for seniors with mobility issues. The design of the bathroom and shower doors is quite odd, and the soundproofing in the room is terrible. Flushing the toilet in the middle of the night creates a very loud noise, which is disruptive to anyone else in the room.

Tips

When using the KTM Shuttle Tebrau, careful planning can significantly improve your travel experience between Johor Bahru and Singapore. Due to high demand and strict procedures, it is important to secure your ticket early and arrive at the station with sufficient time to complete all pre-departure requirements. Travelling during off-peak periods can also increase your chances of obtaining tickets and enjoying a smoother journey. Ensuring that your passport and necessary documents are readily accessible will help avoid delays during immigration clearance.
