Great inexpensive hotel in city centre”

Great Location, Great Apartment, Good Amenities, Cheap for Group Stay. Different room sizes to suit different travellers. I chose this hotel because of price and location in Johor Bahru city centre. It didn't disappoint on both accounts. I really enjoyed my stay at TKL holiday home.

my compliments to tkl chambermaid”

been booking tkl homestay for my weekly physiotherapy at pelangi. would like to compliment the young chambermaid, Miss Sarau. She is always courteous and ensure the rooms and corridor are thoroughly cleaned. Theres once we arrived n our room is not ready yet, and the last customer just check-out. Due to the extreme hot sun in April,we are soaked in sweat.She hold us in another room ,let us turn on the air-con and place our heavy bags while she cleans our room. To our surprise, she also helped turn on our room”s aircon, so when we enter , our room is already cooling. I can’t forget her kindness and meticulous until today. Also once, i left my room for breakfast , passed by other room which she was cleaning, didn't saw her as i was fumbling my bag. She greeted me"Good Morning" loudly and cheerfu

Simple overnight stay - very satisfied ”

My kids and I loved that TKL homestay was sooo near to KSL. There were many good food stalls around the area. Checking in and out was a breeze. There was a hot water dispenser just outside the corridor. The room itself was clean. 'Hotness'and 'strongness' of shower very good. The TV was at a funny angle so screen can be seen from 1 bed only. TV reception was very bad but internet connection was very good. I would recommend this place if you just need a comfortable place to stay the night. On average 1 night in KSL hotel can buy you 3-4 nights here.

My Second Stay here and more in future”

Me and my parents enjoy the stay here. We were impressed by how efficient the staffs and the staffs were helpful. When we first check in, we found out that the room smells of cigarette, to which upon us notifying the staffs, they immediately bring in some machine to eliminate the odour. We never thought they will be this fast. We were impressed and we are glad we chose this. We will sure to come back to this in future whenever we are staying over a night at JB.

best homestay at JB with best location”

good place to stay for a few days in JB. Love the location.. there are so much good food at that area.. KSL, and hawker centre food stalls, and prices are quite affordable. KSL is a good place to do shopping in JB. It is like KL's Berjaya Times Square though. cheaper clothing and accessories. I bought a new phone case there. Unique and i definitely will visit and stay here again

New corner house unit unsatisfactory ”

We used to stay in one of the bedrooms the villa unit itself. It was a great experience. Second time round we were allocated in one of the bedrooms in the left corner house opposite the villa. I guess they bought it over & convert it to home stay there. The bedroom condition is almost the same so it was acceptable too. This time round i am disappointed bcos i was allocated a bedroom which located at another corner house opposite at the right. The room & private bathroom is not renovated at all. It's so small, dirty and smelly !! The toilet door tore off the next night !!!! Terrible experience!! I hav no idea how many more houses unit they bought but they should've renovated it!!!
