Accomodation done

Kondo Istana Hotel
Its a favourite with many participants. Why I went for it is because its on the bike and run route. Very convenient for our loved ones. They can take a rest in between our appearances. The day (and night) is more difficult for them.
You can book thru many sites on the net or call them direct:
04-9661118 (En Faiz - polite chap)
The rate is RM209 per night for a two room condo (four beds). It has kitchen (for the wife), lounge and dining place too I think. Don't know why I never stayed here before. I wonder whats the catch.
The other places I have stayed are :
Sea View, City Bay View (too expensive)
Baron (OK its new)
Langkasuka (where they have the race briefing. Ok but a bit out of the way)
Eagle Bay (absolutely useless)
Flight is done and of course the entry fee. So we are set.........
