I specially include this for my 2nd day stay.
Walk in 240k. The boss is chinese and he let me take a look at the 200k and 240k room. The 300k deluxe was taken...so cant see.
I choose the 240k because it is slightly bigger and have a LCD wall mounted TV. I vaguely remember seeing the 200k room with a CRT TV.

Look at the wall of the toilet...look like my 16 bit TV game console resolution 20 years ago,hehehe...see too long will make me feel giddy leh,hehehe...

Rolling blackouts in Batam means it will affect whole of Batam.
Thank you for the information. Black out happens quite often in Batam but my worries wasnt on the hotel. What i dislike most were the fish tank will be dark during day time. A few times in Batam,i have to try to choose the girls in the dark when i am inside and its day time. The good part is the girls will sometime step outside the joint,so no need step into joint also can see them,hehehe...

Havent seen a riot in Batam before,so far only see demonstration and it is more often happening at Batam Center. Being a kiasu and kiasi person,i would say it is always good to take precaution as i still understand the fact that never seen before doesnt mean it will not happen.

Thank you for sharing.
