I took a leap of faith and booked this hotel room despite some negative feedback from other travellers about this hotel on various platforms. I was upgraded to the deluxe room by the kind receptionist Ikmal. Thank you very much! Here’s my honest review of the room. First impression, the deluxe room was extremely spacious. The room was also very clean. The bed sheet smells fresh. There were some minor spots on the bed sheet but it wasn’t a big deal. The hotel provided 2 pairs of slippers and 2 bottles of water. I did not use the water kettle. All the basic amenities in the washroom was also available. The aircon took a while to get running but it got colder as the night draws in. The noise isolation of the room was rather poor as I could hear noises from outside the hotel even though I was on the 8th floor. Despite the noises, I was able to sleep relatively well thanks to the soft pillows provided. One thing I found annoying was that the bathroom door cannot be closed shut fully. As the the result, some of the cool air from the air conditioning escaped into the bathroom. Please note that if you’re driving into JB, I don’t think this hotel has a parking lot. Kindly confirm before booking. Overall, I would book this hotel again as the pros (close proximity to the customs and dining options, clean room and value for money) outweighs the cons and I highly recommend this hotel to anyone who is looking for a decent hotel to stay without breaking the bank. See you soon Citrus Hotel!

This is the most disgusting hotel I've stayed! Such a waste since the location is perfect. Minutes away from shopping malls, custom and immigration and the night market. Have a stunning view of the causeway and Singapore especially in the evening. Back to the hotel. We arrived late after a long day. Staying just for a night. When we reached the lobby, we were greeted by the receptionist with a smile but at the same time I noticed something is not right. The lobby were unorganised, looks old and smelly. But we'll, I have a very low expectations on this hotel with the room rate that I paid. Never mind, I just want a good rest. Check in process is pretty fast, about less than 5 minutes since everything is prepaid. This time again I felt something is not quite ordinary when the receptionist hand me the air-con remote control. Went to the lift which is next to the reception counter. The area is just like an old shopping mall lift, nothing like hotels lift landing. However the came pretty fast. Once enter the lift, I was so so suprise to see how dirty it was. The real nightmare began when we reach our floor which is on the 14th floor. The carpet along the corridor is supposed to be red in color but it's turn black because of too dirty and no maintainance. It's really disgusting these kind of conditions in the hotel vicinity! It's super super dirty and I don't even know the appropriate words to describe. Walk all the way to my room and I saw 1 major safety issue that the management failed to see. The window and the end on the corridor is widely open! Just imagine if children playing and climb on the window, the resulting be catastrophic! This is truly a super massive issue!!! Enter the room, the size is big with 1 king size and 1 single bed BUT, the condition is even worse than those super cheap B&B!!! Just take a look at the photo attached. It is super disgusting!!!! 1. The trash bin the washroom filled with water and rubbish!!! The floor is dirty with stain everywhere!!! 2. The stain in the bedroom is out of this world, I can't even describe how dirty it is. Let the photo speak for itself. I don't even dare to take off my shoe. 3. The sofa is suitable to be thrown away. 4. The mattress is as hard as brick!! Same goes to the pillow. I don't 100% blame the staff for this condition but rather the management fault. They failed to manage the property properly. I am very sure if Malaysia Hotel association, building safety inspector and ministry of health making a suprise inspection, this building will fail in all areas. My suggestion is, if the management felt that they unable to maintain this hotel, I think it is better to rent/lease or even sell the property to any proper hotel chain.

Capri by Fraser Johor Bahru

City Center of Johor Bahru
2nd time staying at Capri but different room (this time Studio Executive King on the 23rd Floor). The only thing is that the bathing area of the bathroom, you need to ensure that the screen is firmly stick onto the glass panal or tape. As the screen will have a gap that the next building residence can see into the bathing area. Other than that, the room and location is great.

Suasana Residence by SC Homestay
4.2/55 Reviews
City Center of Johor Bahru
Highly recommend. I have a high standard of cleanliness and this suite easily passed the mark. I walked on barefoot and no stain! It’s even cleaner than a 5-star hotel. Pillow, bedsheet are all clean. It’s a serviced apartment type and so no meal is provided but city square is within 5 minutes.
Hotel CIQ @ Wong Ah Fook
3.7/559 Reviews
City Center of Johor Bahru
Stayed in superior queen room for two nights. Big receptionist at checkin was unfriendly and charged me RM10 more than stated from booking which is pennies but more for the principle. Room was relatively clean. Safe provided did not work. Kettle available in room. The Wi-Fi was spotty. The door separating neighbor provides no sound proof also can hear what goes on in hallway. A/C works well, no place to hang clothes, few channels tv, stained bed sheets, rainfall shower head only trickles, water temperature was difficult to calibrate, either scalding hot or cold.
Holiday Inn Johor Bahru City Centre

Consistent with brand standards, bulk-size amenities are provided here at the Holiday Inn Johor Bahru City Centre and while I do appreciate the positive impact these initiatives have on the environment, the body wash bottles located by the shower area were empty when I checked-in to the room. The opaque bottles definitely make it hard for housekeeping to check whether a top-up is required so this is quite certainly a pain point for everyone. Affordable and modern rooms in a great location make Holiday Inn Johor Bahru City Centre a great choice for travellers from Singapore without private transport.
Hotel CIQ, Jalan Trus
4/5195 Reviews
City Center of Johor Bahru
The place is quite convinient. Near the immigration. It is behind the zenith mall. Since we didnt take the room without wondows, we were staying at the basement. It is a no frill kind of room. Clean enough, the walls are a little bit thin, you can hear people showering but it is ok as it not so bad. Have some toiletries and towels which is really good. Towels are also provided and water as well. I would highly recommend this place for those staying for a night and are in a budget. If you have more room for spending, you can try the room with windows, it looks bigger and much more airy
