I made a last-minute decision to visit Batam for a 2-day, 1-night trip, so I chose this hotel based on reviews praising its good value for money. As soon as we walked in, the staff were all very warm and welcoming. It's not a huge hotel, but the exterior looks pretty good. It doesn't have a pool, but I'm out and about a lot, so I didn't need one. I opted for breakfast, expecting it to be very simple, but to my surprise, there were quite a few options and the taste wasn't bad. The room was clean, and the view outside the window was nice, though I didn't take any photos. The location is central, making it very convenient to get anywhere. You can just take a Grab. Of course, you can also walk if you don't mind the hot weather, dust, and heavy traffic. I did try walking, and it takes about 10-15 minutes to get to Grand Batam Mall for shopping. Right next door to the hotel is a Starbucks, and across the street is the famous Tua Pek Kong Temple if you'd like to visit. Since I was hungry, I tried a place across the street that served Ice Cendol and Mee Siam – both were surprisingly delicious!
