Had a 1 night stay here. Lobby very nice, but rooms a little dated.
Exec lounge had a reasonable offering, with different food in the afternoon and the evening. Outdoor pool on 6th floor, nice to relax there. More than acceptable but certainly not luxury.

any recent stays here? just for something different, we're thinking of a couple nights in Johor after a singapore/bali jaunt. I'm curious about breakfast, lounge access and titanium treatment. TIA.

stayed back in May, I would say they are almost 100% back to normal.
as a platinum, no upgrade (was on a weekend and seems that a lot of locals stay there)
which can be immediately noticed at the club longue.
technically only 2 pax per room but I see a lot of full family (2A + 2(or more) kids) during the afternoon tea and cocktail hour.
lounge food was adequate, but due to the number of people there, it run out really quick and they take a while to refill.
breakfast was a little better since the restaurant was spacious and quite a number of variety of food available

We had to book 2 rooms there when travelling with our kids. No upgrade initially but something wrong with our rooms so they upgraded us to a suite for the whole family. The lounge is relatively small so it gets packed pretty quickly.
