[sbf4life]

Hi bros.

i am thinking of spending a night in JB with my new found girlfriend. Can anyone recommend me a good and safe hotel ( preferbly not too near from the woodland causeway) and some nice makan place( e.g seafood). Any kind bros can help?

Many thanks.

Hi,

You can try out Eden hotel (Rate RM 190.00) with 2 breakfast sets. When you walk out from the hotel you are able to see a row of seafood shophouses which offer nice and cheap stuff...fyi the red plastic chair food are okie to try...

Contentinal hotel (RM 125.00 less RM 10.00 if you got member card) it is cheap and provide 2 breakfast set. and makan u can take a cab to Da Ma hua yuan (market) to try out the seafood there....

U can try Duty Free Eden. 100% safe. Cause this hotel is well taken care.

Out from this hotel, got whole stretch of makan place up to Bluewave hotel.
It's by the sea side. Lots of couple sitting along the beach.

But don't stay at the dark place... cause u don't know who will pay u a visit.
(eg. peeping tom, robbers, rapists, police...etc) SAFETY FIRST..

Hope this helps.... Enjoy...

y go JB now as there are so many things happen( rob, snatch...) i would advise spending in SGP. i think u & ur GF live worth alot more than the few RM saving.

i disagree wit u bro patpat.im personally a malaysian here, i stay at sg.i will go to jb for fun sometimes, jb is a nice place especially for foods n shopping.there are things u cant get at singapore.im sure the feeling of staying at hotel wit ur girlfriend and the feeling of eating wit ur girlfriend at jb is different if u stay n eat at singapore.its the special feeling that u cant get at singapore spending oversea time wit ur girlfriend.no offend to bros here

To me I think if you don't venture abt is like a frog in the well.
Always thinking S'pore is the best & safe city.
But don't forget Robberies/rape/murder/etc still happen here in S'pore.

To make it simple & short, try to protect yrself & be street smart.
JB still got nice & friendly people around. Mi travel to & fro often & still
find JB got lots of potential to be a great food & shopping paradise.

Look at Jln Ah Fook now & 2 yrs back... so much different. Bear in mind
when u r in a foreign land, always respect the law & culture.
Anything u feel offensive just turn & move away. Don't challenge anyone.

Nobody knows u r rich unless u show yr tail/colors. Just act as an ordinary
humble person. As simple as possible.

Just my 1 cent comment.... hope it does not offend anyone...
Enjoy yr stay in JB.... & have fun...

i get your point bro but i think those who kena rob are usually those hao lian hao dai talk loudly cannot wait to announce to the world they are singaporeans type..actually i find malaysians are much more friendly then we singaporeans...as with any place there will always be the black sheep...just remember "when in rome do what the romans do"....doing otherwise will only make you stand out like a sore thumb...

Yes, i agree. Who said singapore there are no crimes!!! So many murder cases happening recently. Bear in mind when you are in other country just behave normal and dun wear until u look fucking rich family and of course also dun show off yr big car there just to keep u safe. Malaysian r nice place to visit and from my source, the increase of crime rates in malaysia is due to increasing of indonesia and foreign people who cannot find job there and then they start stealing, robbing and murdering. Stealing car are mostly done by them too....

If it is any comfort to you, that sort of thing can also happen to Malaysians.

What did those 'goverment' people do to you anyway?
