Staying at Grand Sentosa Hotel Johor Bahru was quite an experience! The location is fantastic, nestled in the bustling 'Chinatown' district, allowing for so much activity and entertainment right at my doorstep. The rooms were decent and quite clean, but I found myself wishing for a mini-fridge to keep my drinks cool.

I recently stayed at Grand Sentosa Hotel in Johor Bahru, and there were some highlights as well as a few letdowns. The hotel is buzzing with energy thanks to its location in the vibrant Chinatown district, making it easy to grab a bite or shop nearby. The rooms were quite comfortable with large beds and a great TV setup, but I did encounter issues regarding service and parking guidance that weren’t ideal. The dining options could use some improvement, as the choices were a bit limited. Overall, it offered decent value for money, but some aspects could definitely be enhanced.

The rooms could use a bit more comfort and amenities, like a mini bar, as they felt somewhat cramped. On the bright side, the nightlife and dining options nearby are fantastic and keep the area lively. Overall, it's a decent value for the price, but certainly has room for improvement.
