As described.
We were anxious having seen other reviews after booking however our expectations were exceeded - we found the rooms were as described and pictured, and the beds and sheets very comfortable. The rooms we booked were basic and small but with great facilities and a very good price.

Don’t try it at all
It was a very bad experience for us. As we were three of us staying, the largest room offered was at the ground floor right next to the bar which remained noisy almost all night long. The days laundry was stored right in front of the door making it difficult to walk through. Rooms are not cleaned unless asked for. No phone in the room so if you need anything, be prepared to walk to the front desk. Some people at the reception weren’t polite at all. Better hotels available at this rate so why waste your hard earned money?

customer service chance
The hotel must advertise clearer that some rooms are shared bathroom ... i arrived to realise i had booked wrong room, and was then charged a premium which took me past entry and mid level hotel prices for Singapore ... as a client you AWAYS feel used, if not abused. A hotel with good to outstanding customer service would have upgraded me at no cost ... securing a repeat customer, and a good review - a shame. Front office staff seemed not empowered to make a decision like this or lacked that extra bit of customer focus. Even a small fee would have been okay. A high premium a no perhaps!

6/10 Good

It’s an average 3 or 2 star hotel. Inexpensive for Singapore. Singapore accommodation cost is amongst the highest the world world. Selected this hotel as it was near a MRT station and only needed a night stay.

Staffs are helpful but should provide daily housekeeping.

2/10 Poor

bad experience
I booked this hotel for February 1st to February 4th, 2025 Unfortunately, I had to check out after just one night due to multiple issues that significantly impacted my stay: 1. Room Cleanliness – The room was dusty and unclean, making it uncomfortable to stay in. 2. Noise Disturbance – The poor soundproofing made it difficult to sleep as loud music from a nearby club persisted until 3–4 a.m. 3. Safety Concerns – My room was located on the first floor, and the emergency door facing the back street was tampered with by an unknown individual, raising serious security concerns. I raised these concerns with the hotel staff, but they only offered an apology without any resolution, such as a room change or alternative accommodations. Given the unacceptable conditions and lack of support, I had no choice but to leave the hotel and find alternative lodging. If you want to ruin your holiday, please book this room

nowadays experience
too expensive and not good location and good staff
inho, 3-night trip

6/10 Good

Not worth at all.
Hotel looks quite nice in the picture. In reality it has a reception that opens on the Road.. No aircon. So if one has to wait for some time to get the room, there is no place to sit. Overall not worth the price. Folks at reception are of no help at all. They have stock answers for any and every query.

Roaches everywhere and staff seems uninterested to your small request to look into air con that is warm and extra pillows. Sigh

Building is not properly maintained as there were peeling paint not touched up. Sheets were also stained and there was a weird smell when I went into my room. The counter staff was also very slow in facilitating my check in.
