It’s surrounding with the Malaysia 🇲🇾 ‘s largest manmade freshwater lake 💦💧 (7️⃣k acres) named Bukit Merah 🏞💦💧 & approximately 3️⃣-hour drive 🚐 from Kuala Lumpur city & through Bukit Merah toll Exit 150 along the North-South Expressway 🛣

Room

After buffet lunch 🍽🍴@ Lelac Cafe, she 👩🏻 went to check-in 🔐 with her media friend 👭to a standard hotel room 🛌🚿🚽

A simple, clean yet comfy stay with toiletries available. There is no ❌ iron / hair dryer available in the hotel room 🛌

However, no wifi ❌📶 network detection in the hotel room, though the wifi password was printed on the hotel room key 🔑 ‘s envelope 😌

Frankly, the hotel rooms are considered quite well maintained 👌🏻 since it’s an old resort since its establishment in 1995. More of its hotel room types & room information via 🌐 http://www.bukitmerahresort.com.my/laketown-hotel

    1. Ha…Ha…Good point, their room not really underwhelming though, personally it’s considered well managed for an old resort 😀

      Perhaps you’re right that they may purposely making the room wifi not working, so that we are out to enjoy its surrounding activities available 😛
