Genting Highland re-visited

It has been quite sometime since my last outing to a hill resort. It was year 2008 when i last visited Genting Highlands. This time around, I have another free stay at First World hotel. Despite a cheapskate hotel, it was a good escapade from the city hectic life. Jumping at the opportunity, I headed to catch the free shuttle bus early in the morning. Not exactly free, some fares need to be paid as deposit…but still worth it...
With that small sum, I got to have:
  • Free return shuttle ride
  • Enjoy free Chinese New Year musical show at Arena Genting
  • Have free meal in the casino
 
 and here's our tiny room
note how much it  has changed from my previous visit!
 all equipments being provided - fridge, hair dryer, water heater, clothes hanger, proper sanitary stuffs, and most importantly all were clean
 i can make hot drinks with this heater
 coffee, tea or me???
 this is the washroom
 with their all-in-one shampoo, conditioner and soap
 the shower area
And since we have a "world card" worth MYR50, we had another free dinner at New Orleans café.

Overall damage: ~MYR10
for the entire outing, cool???

Genting is so cold for me during the last visit. I think it is becuz it was raining. I definitely not going to shower without water heater. Speaking of this, is there any recommendation for water heater repair services? Please share if there is any info. Thank you.
