guys, planning a birthday surprise for my gf by bringing her to RWS for her bday... departing from kl on 7th may night by bus (cos working) and arriving on 8th may morning (very early i think). Where should i stay. Planned to go to the theme park on 8th and spend the whole day there.. Coming back on 9th May (sunday).

I've checked out RE! hotel, but do they allow us to check in early? cos there's definitely gonna be some luggage (though gonna be light) and we don't want to lug around in USS.

Or should i stay in RWS itself... where's the most recommended place to stay for couple?

At the moment, i'm budgeting around 1k for the trip.. enough?

safety harness automatically disengage during ride?

i read that madagascar ride is being rushed for completion to replace the BSG ride in the meantime..

Will be going on the 28th this month... think is a good idea or should i delay the plan?

I went universal during the "2nd" Grand Opening day on saturday.. it was a blast..

initially thought gonna be jammed packed with everyone else (the grand opening was announced after my trip was planned and tickets purchased). But rides was quite fast.. longest queue was Jurassic park ride which took 1 hour 20 mins.. Made a mistake there.. When we went in the morning, the queue was 15 mins but decided to sit later cos of the possibility of getting wet.. went back there in the afternoon and the ride queue was 1 hour plus.. no choice but to wait..

BSG was great.. human side is so so only compared to cylon.. i think i went on cylon side about 6 times.. Try get the front seat.. it's terrifying.

Our average queue time was around 10-15 mins on the grand opening day.. Managed to go around the park 3 times the whole day we were there. It's real small park.

if you want to go on rides, i'd suggest that you just take a small compact cam. It's a big hassle to keep running to the storage area to keep and take things.. Keep it as light as possible..
