I am writing this fr on the bed of my 240k room in hotel 18. I dunno how to post pics since im using a tablet. So, a fuller FR will follow w pics when im back in sg tmr.
It is a 3d 2n trip. Good n bad experiences this trip. But overall, I still like it.
Things start on a bad note on sat. It was jam pack at the harbourfront ferry departure platform. I swear if there is an option to give up upon full refund of ferry tics...i would hv taken it. Inconsiderate n kiasu ppl are jamming at the gates n I have to push my way through to scan my boarding pass......i guess it is my fault coz i need to take an urgent dump so i drop taking 9am sindo n take the 9.35am one. Best thing is I frantically located 2 toilets but the cubicles are occupied. I rushed to vivocity n finally got a cubicle. By that time, part of my poo had came out. Lucky my briefs stopped it.
Ok....thinking back this is hilarious. Lol.
Things get worse upon reaching btm center customs. Long queue until outside.....luckily the indo customs are on the ball n I got thru in under 45 mins.
Check out the kaha counter....ok....casually ask for city central and hana.....unfortunately they dun deal w both hotels. The chap recommended goodway and novotel batam. Quoted goodway 520k....ok looks like no more carrot chop tactics.
I delibrately do this as i was chop before n i wrote a letter of complaint to kaha.
I didnt book any rooms and i know im taking a risk when i reach nagoya. I wanted to stay at city central or hana this time. I was looking at hotel booking website n it seemed most hotels in batam are fully book.
Had a lunch at byza cafe again. This time i remember to pay.
Take taxi to formosa hotel.....the driver dunno city central hotel....n he took a longer route w crowded traffic. I didnt bargain very hard so it is 50k.
So alighted at formosa n i made sure the driver drove off before i continue.
The previous trip.....the driver rushed in to talk to me when i was signing in at formosa.
I felt very intruded....
I admit im too complacent and i lost my way trying to find city central when in fact it is so near to formosa. In the end, i found hana first.....
Saw new berry....hehe...
Went to hana counter n the recep was surprised i made no booking.
The recep told me left only one room but is twin bed.....i plan to take chicken this time round so i walk off. Spent some 15 mins n finally located city central.
And at last, say only left a 388k room w twin bed. Alamak....
No choice took it. The chinese recep was kind enough to ask me whether want to take a look at the room before commiting. Maybe she see my reluctant face. Anyway, i know i wont have much choice if i rejected. Anyway, went up n take a look....very neat n clean....took the room. I must say everything is nice n clean. The floor is very clean.
Ok.....think i stop here for the night.....
Pardon me coz i tend to write very detail stuff so it can get pretty long winded.
But i feel that the details are important to newbies.
