Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities
Staff didn't share the right locations. Directed wrong locations. Welcome drinks missing. They just kept quiet until check out time we saw a standing signboard abt welcome drinks for room guests. Room was not really clean and noisy when people talking outside the door, old which we paid SGD9guests.

4/10 Poor

Liked: Staff & service, amenities
Disliked: Property conditions & facilities
Room smelled like cigarettes, went away after we turned on the ac. Bathroom’s shower tub was outdated and water spilled out immensely. The shower curtain did not do anything to prevent it. Laundry room hours were 10-10 which was terrible because we were out during those times being tourists and exploring the city. Was hoping we had 24 hour access to wash our clothes. Breakfast was good, however needs better labeling in English.

Not bad at all

Not bad at all but hotel.com was wrong on the navigation and I struggled to find it. Once there everything went smooth. Maybe noisy on main road, better to be on the back of the building
