Valentine Day, Staycation @ Suasana Suites Johor Bahru

Hello readers! Happy valentine day to everyone! I was surprised to receive flowers, i was not expecting any from Jeremy. Last year he was not in sg, so he has ordered and delivered to me however the person delivered the flower late last year, it was almost 10pm when i received, so i was just teasing him and telling him the delivery man probably read the content of the message and know i won't be celebrating valentine day so delivered my valentine day flowers last. hurhur

So i didn't expect him to remember that and this year he ordered and ask them to delivered it one day before the valentine day, super sweet. Beside the beautiful roses, but the sweet thoughts that he remember what i said last year and avoid making the same mistake by engaging a different florist.







So, i was chatting with my colleagues and decided to go for a staycation in JB 2D1N. Initially there were like 5 of us, however some of them couldn't make it so it left only with 3 of us, Eve, Irene and me going in JB for our eat and shop trip. Eve was not staying over so i book via Airbnb the suasana suites because it look like hotel and the location is right next to Amari hotel.

One of my main reason when i used to stay in Amari because of the location that is walking distance to Komtar JBCC and city square, plus Suasana suites is a whole apartment. So i booked to stay with Irene for our accommodation for that day.

We bought train tickets in advance, a month before so the whole train journey only takes 5min and probably another 20min to clear the immigrations.  After clearing, i brought them to eat at Kam long curry fish head. According to reviews, its popular and nice so when we arrived there, we had to queue, but luckily they clear quite fast so we ordered! Wanted fish tail too but it was sold out.

After having our lunch, i checked with the air bnb host and she tell me they can give the room early to me, so we went to check in first. It was quite simple as she has given me the pin, so i just need to key the pin to unlock the letterbox and retrieve the keys. They are way taller than Amari hotel, i remember we was staying at 26th floor!

They have a gym, cafe and swimming pool. Actually it just feel like condo setting. The apartment is spacious for two.











It was clean so it should be my favourite hotel to stay when i visit JB again, especially each unit have different type of decor designs.
After we settled down, we grab to paradigm mall and spend hours there shopping,

The amount of stuffs we bought.
As Eve got to catch her train back woodlands since she is not staying, we went back to city square to have our dinner so it will be easy for her to walk to the customs.



Shall end this post for now.
till then!
