Equatorial Resort, Cameron Highlands

YES, this is the hotel that we'll be staying in. Picture taken from a picture....ho ho.

Equatorial Resort, Cameron Highlands.

RM 638++, thus it is really RM 733.70 per night!

For a 2 bedroom apartment.

Let's see if it's worth it.

That's the 1st room with the king sized bed...

There's a balcony just outside, so you can actually climb in through window to the 1st room.

The bathroom for the 1st room...

This is the other room, twin sharing..

And this is the view from the room..

The kitchen ....

with bare cupboards..

More bare cupboards...

The dirty rusted stove....




The living room, where you can access the balcony...

What do you think? Is it worth RM 733.70 per night?

And check this out.....

Hmm..... initially I thought that they won't replenish after the 1st day and that any replenishment would cost us RM 5 nett (!) but I think I was mistaken. This note meant that if we want any extra coffee or tea, then it's chargeable. Correct me if I'm wrong.

.

Anyway, I think RM 733.70 per night for this 2 bedroom apartment is an absolute RIP-OFF!!!

.

Here's why I think RM 733.70 per night is a rip-off!

.

1. We didn't have nice comforters, it was the old fashioned guni -sack-like blankets.

.

2. The walls were dirty, they badly need repainting.

.

3. The kitchen was empty. Why bother with a kitchen then? No utensils, pots, etc. for cooking. The stove wasn't even working.

.

4. The shower wasn't strong, the water flowed in a sparse pathetic way.

.

5. The water in the toilet cistern took forever to fill up..

.

6. The carpets in the cupboards were grotty and dirty. (Hotel personnel, if you are reading this, please check! You think people don't look at the flooring of the cupboards? It's disgusting, I tell you)

.

7. The sofa bed (oh, yes, there was a sofa bed in the living room) was hard and uncomfortable.

.

8. Inefficient hotel service.... SIGH.
