"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...

Attrus By LSE - Hostel

8/10 Good

"The bunks are built into the walls and very sturdy. The mattress is asian firm, with a thick duvet which is useful as the AC is strong. The bunk also has a privacy curtain, a private light and an electrical socket. There were also 2 USB socket, but they were broken. There's a locker under the bed, which could fit my small backpack and a small suitcase. You'll need a padlock though. There were separate bathrooms for boys and girls. The boys shared bathroom had shower rooms and combined toilet/shower rooms. The wooden doors to the showers are suffering from rot, while the shower walls have signs of mould. There's also no air conditioning, so it gets hot and sweaty after a shower. A hair dryer was provided in the showers. The hotel is close to the main sights of Johor Bahru. All of these were with in easy walking distance: the Old Temple of Johor Bahru; Skyscape; JB Sentral and City Square. There's also a restaurant on the ground floor of the hotel and a cafe next door. Other than the bathroom condition, the only thing I didn't like were the unfriendly the staff. They're not particularly happy or welcoming. Otherwise, I was happy with the stay as the bunks are clean and comfortable. That's all I needed for a 1 day visit to the city"
