Hehehe...ok,ok...i am just pulling your leg by deliberately mis-reading whats written on your FR,hehehe...sorry,no offense intended. I guess you are saying you made your trip on the 25th March 2016 instead. I have the tendency to read back previous good FRs shared by good bros in the forum. And i read them quite a few times too.
Those dates you visited Batam,i have many friends heading to Batam too,hence i have a lot to read after that Good Friday super long weekends.

For every problem encounter,there should at most time a solution,hehehe...even tho i do claim to have an almost functional solution in your situation,i will still try to avoid public holidays that are linked with a weekend. Yes,even when i dont work on weekends and public holidays,i still try my best to visit Batam on weekdays,non-holiday season.

The thing i do not like about any of my Batam trip is the start up part at the trip. If beginning dont go smoothly,it can really affect my mood.

Took her wechat and walked out with disappointment.
Next up was MM/Indah2 , totally no stock , 4-5 Milfs. Papi said public hols the better lots was already booked very early.
Then lastly New Berry , quality subpar , I chose mine there , 21YO SYT which one of my acquaintance booked before previously(did not realized until I fetch her and looked up close and she recognized us, super awkward moment for me)
Skipped Goldbird this time round after so many disappointments going there.

The result of arriving at a not-so-good timing.And i blame your ferry delay for that tho.

Bunga is the most expensive booking joint in Batam. In my last Batam trip on March 2016,nearly all the other booking joints i went to were comparing their price with Bunga...the OKTs tell me,"For my standard of girls,you will have to pay at least 1.5 milion rupiah to 1.8 rupiah in Bunga". I replied,"their girls all service top notch (plus other things),but can you guarantee the same?",hehehe....i'm just bluffing them by the way.
Whenever the OKTs in any joints try to make comaprison,i will make comparison too. Erm...apple to apple,from the tree.

I was actually looking forward to your review on L-Hotel but it looks like a not-so-good one. Maybe becos i already got put off by their in-room mirror during the beginning and there was some biase to that hotel,hence i kind of expecting the hotel you stayed in wont be much good. Still ,i thank you for taking your precious time to try this new hotel and reviewing it so that others like myself can have a clearer picture of a new place to stay in Batam.

I think this happens to every new hotel in Batam,hehehe...i always aim for the bell boy in all new hotels. Becos most time i notice that they are the "magicians" in Batam hotels.

Hmm...if they dont improve on this part,very soon they are even going to lose their existing customers (if there are) as wifi is pretty much an essential to every kind of tourist today.
