Hotel @ Batu Pahat.

I was at Batu Pahat for work recently, and this time round, due to some reason I had no place to stay. So I had to checked into a hotel. Because I wanted a Hotel nearby to where I work, I did not have much choices. The best I could get was this Garden Hotel located at 29, Jalan Jenang, 83000 Batu Pahat, Johor. Tel: 607-431-5999.

It was not too bad with Free Wifi Internet access @ the lounge & lobby floor. The room was pretty basic. A bed, 2 sofa, attached bathroom (small), a TV (both local & Singapore channels, no Astro channels)and Air-conditioning. But one basic thing missing was drinking water! They dont provide drinking water!!!! I asked the staff there and she said not provided! How can that be??? I had to go buy bottles of drinking water across the street. But it was acceptably clean, so I was quite ok with it. At RM98 per night (inclusive of breakfast), I expected it to be slightly better. Anyway, it has a small basement parking (about 13 lots) plus an outdoor parking. As for the view..... what view? Batu Pahat has got no view worth looking at! In Batu Pahat you meet people and you go for Good Food at very good price! Would you believe you can still get RM2 Chicken Rice! Well you can, just need to know where to get it. The people @ Batu Pahat are mostly very friendly. Well at least for most of the people I met.
