I've just back from batam recently and stayed at island garden hotel. I liked this hotel because of the location and the price. About 36 dollars. Near Top 100, BCS shopping mall and massage. Have you heard of sydney hotel?...the friend of mine to me was nice? Anyway is there a nice place for booking cewek?...so far i always been to sedona, jungle minda, maxim and bougenvilla.

Triniti is more of a boutique hotel...with a food court just in front...the BBQ fish is quite good.....there is a massage which have happening (friends that went there told me)...besides that there's nothing much....but its not a very convenience road in...

the new entertainment is not inside Nagoya Hill Shopping Centre area....its outside just directly opposite Puri Garden Hotel if you know....or else...you ask the people sure they know as its very prominently located...from main road can see it....

alot of renovation work still going on at the inner side of the hotel....I've gone to view the room....ok quite standard...maybe because its new....but don't think you'll like the noise..... hacking floor & wall/banging/cutting tiles/machine....when in the afternoon this work is on-going.....I'm estimating it to complete maybe 2 to 3 more months....in Batam...consider very fast.....looking at the housekeeping service.....may need quite awhile to keep to standard ...

hi bros here.. just thinking of making another solo trip there again. last time i went, dont know where to get gal, so asked a taxi driver to drive me around, sent me to a few discos, finally placed my $ on a late 20s gal for $350k rp. I think it was kind of expensive cos i heard usually around $250-270k rp? that was in august. is there price change? what is the norm price? where are these villages that u guys talked about? sorry i dont know any bahasa indonesian so cant really communicate with the drivers except tell them "char bo" or "girl", then they drove me off.. would appreciate if someone can give me a survival guide or maybe address. planning on staying at hotel 88 or utama this time. also what is the norm price now? and how to make sure they dont overcharge

[Tyral]

I've just been to Utama solo last week the rate was 250k. If you wan to know more pm me or see my post(english not beri good).
