KSL Mall (Johor)

[Andrew833]

ok, here's the link~ i think once the host re-list his unit, the link will be different~ for 2N stays, total i paid S$151.47~

the jacuzzi bathtub is quite worth it~ the water jet is powerful, pour abit of bath solution, the whole bathtub foam up quickly~ with the RGB light, its quite cool~

Thanks for sharing, is there any min of stay? I usually stay sat, sun check out.

Homestay usually 1 nite is not worth because of the addition of 1-time cleaning fee and booking fee. Both usu cost as much as 1 nite stay.
How was the Austin vs Skudai Mall in terms of convenience of getting there and around?

Details/restrictions are normally available in the individual listing, but it's quite common for 1-night minimum, while some give discount for weekly and monthly stays.

no min stay~

you are right that longer stay may get discount and its upto the host to define long stay or not~ the one i stay at Vista Residences at Genting has Long Stay Discount even though it was just 2 nights stay~

and the one i stay at Taipei has additional "Occupancy taxes and fees" on top of the cleaning & service fees~ the rate may also change due to holiday season, so best is to try out the airbnb web to see the final cost~

Austin more for café and restaurants, price slightly higher. Got 2 pubs, 1 of them very strict, you can't see what happening inside. Tons of bb tea.

Sutera Mall area, more for local standard, price lower. Many restaurants. It's near to Paradigm and bukit indah.

"addition of 1-time cleaning fee and booking fee"
Yeah, but I want to try the bath tub

Another nice review with pictures and pricing from sunsetbay. so Average is abt $80/nite for 2BR for homestay for Dec holiday period. Competitive vs 2 hotel rooms. A big diff bet homestay vs hotel is u can do laundry. Have you stayed R&F condo before?

Ya, price definitely more competitive than hotel and no tourist tax~ I checked thru the host listing, he also have a studio apartment at Paragon suites~ it's just next door of where I'd stayed~ it's a dual keys unit~ cheaper and with jacuzzi bathtub if you don't need a 2 bedder~

Had went to R&F mall but have not stayed there~ a bigger development with many blocks~ maybe some other time~ next homestay I may consider Danga Bay~

Need help here... tiv!! Checking in esplanade tmr at 3 bed apartment. Where do I get the acess card? I booked it from Agoda and no clear instructions was given
I thought is ksl hotel resort. Agoda never mention is esplanade until I did research.

You need the access card to enter from KSL mall to D'esplanade~ if not you have to go in to the lobby by D'esplanade carpark entrance~

The access door from KSL mall is just a small door with a long narrow passage~ it's at Ground level, beside FOS, it's hard to spot~

To go-to swimming pool from D'esplanade, you have to goto mscp level 6 walk to KSL hotel carpark, there's a fence gate divided both of the carparks~ you need access card as well~ from KSL hotel carpark take lift up level 7 to go-to swimming pool~ which means you can't access from KSL hotel swimming pool then go to d'esplanade without the access card~

Check in first, reception area for D'Esplanade is on the right as you go into that carpark entrance, your 3rd photo. After checking in you'll get the card and start using those shortcuts.

 

[sunbear71]

Oic. So all the apartments booked through agoda are esplanade residences? Thanks

If you've booked D'Esplanade, then it's D'Esplanade apartments regardless of where you booked from.

D'Esplanade isn't KSL's only apartment for booking. Go take a look at KSL's own website and you'll get a better idea.

Ya, those photos are KSL's apartment premise that's next to their mall, D'Esplanade Residences (or whatever exact name they have).

Anyway, only their apartments have 3-room units, definitely not their hotel side, so no worries.

since you book thru agoda, then you shld get the access cards from the reception~ reception is at the glass entrance on the right, after carpark gantry~ if you driving in, you shld tell the guard at carpark gantry that you are checking in, so that he can let you in and temporary park at the visitor lots~

the passage door to KSL shopping mall is located beside the reception, on the right~

for airbnb users, hv to park outside the road temporary, go to letterbox (they called it mail room) on the left of the reception to retrieve the access cards~
