“Smells like cigarettes”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed January 1, 2013

It's a boutique hotel with a minimalist concept, and you get what you pay for. Personally I didn't mind it as the place was relatively clean, big shower stall and modern furnishings.

The superior room; good for smaller-build individuals as the place is quite small and there isn't much space for large bags and many things.

Location: just a short drive from Danga Bay, a place with a few restaurants overlooking the water. The entire town itself is unremarkable, as I would not have went there if it wasn't to visit Legoland.

The only thing that I really didn't like was the smell of cigarettes in the corridors, the hotel and even in the room when the hotel itself is a non-smoking hotel.

Sometimes the price tag can serve as an indicator of expectations.

Room Tip: Go for the bigger rooms if you have two bags or more.

“A good budget hotel with contemporary design”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed December 12, 2012

Get a superior room with just RM 101 per night. Check in is fast, they do take RM 50 as deposit. My room is at second floor. No lift provide. Bed is nice, complimentary wifi is really good. A modern bathroom design with sliding glass door. Hot water is great. The hotel provide complimentary coffee and tea sachet in the room. LCD TV and AC good enough. However my room got no window.

Few nice restaurant nearby. One of it is Restoran Singgah Selalu, but you need to cross the highway in front hotel area, just wait about 1 minute, then the road will clear for you to cross. We have a really good dinner with live band in this restaurant (11 pm at that time).

“Just the place in JB”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed June 10, 2012

My band - the Two Hats Gang - were put up at Danga Bay's Zoom Inn boutique hotel when we performed at Bar Lazio, last week. The hotel is really good, the rooms very comfortable, small but when all you need is a hot shower and comfortable, this is a great place. The service by Zainab Idris and her team is very warm. They are all out to please you and very helpful at giving direction and even a short ride into town. We also checked out the executive suite (they have four units) and found quite good for parents and a kid. There is a bus service just around the corner for anyone who to visit Singapore's Universal Studios and Sentosa Island. Highly recommended.
