Sure i will. Batam air-con-ed food places has lesser and lesser smoking area. Over time, perhaps in the next 10 years down the road, they will likely become history. Need to support them more if i am a smoker,hehehe...
One of these day ,will need to go and fill up those empty chairs and tables,hehehe...

Huh? Those photos i posted were from around 5 or more years ago...they (the hotel) have changed in many ways and the latest room were of the last time you visited Formosa in your 2019 trip.

The only things that I am sure were not there, on my last visits, are the multiple cables for charging phones and that horrible controller for aircondition and lights. They never worked well, however.

Those things were no longer there in Formosa Hotel.
Quite stupid tho, they no longer has that TV channel list. The air-con and lights controller device EOL-ed, mobile phone charging cables replaced by USB port on the wall etc. All 2nd floor toilet's bath tub were taken out (my personal safe box were gone,hehehe...), and replaced by standing shower area. Showering area's floor were replaced by sandy concrete so it becomes less slippery.
They took out most of the room's carpet too, so now you can only see some carpeted rooms on the 3rd floor.
...and they changed some of their chair's design too. Old ones look something like this below :
They never wash their curtain for ages tho (no hotels i know do that yet), well...i did it for them instead. So if you are staying in your usual room you stayed in the last time, the curtain should actually be cleaner than most of their other rooms,hehehe...but not so sure today.
