Good hotel for the price. Step up from a hostel
Fabulous staff and very helpful with any questions I had. The room was slightly larger than my twin size bed with no window. You showered with the toilet and sink (meaning there was no separate shower) which I found surprising.

The reception staff were great. Staying 10 nights with no sheet change, or floors cleaned was poor. Exterminator one day and staff knocking on the door every afternoon to empty bin and give you water seemed very odd. Rooms small. You could sit on the toilet, wash your hands in basin and shower at once it was so small. Convenient to transport and markets.

Good for the price
Stayed here as a family - 2 adults, 2 kids. A basic room room but for the price and knowing how expensive Singapore is this hotel suited us fine. A/C was great, beds comfy, shower great, room clean. Staff at the hotel helpful and friendly. Downside (not fault of the hotel) is the loud music from the bar across the road. A room not street side wouldn’t be bothered by the noise. There were a couple of things broken in the room that could be easily fixed. Overall for the money the hotel is fine and in a great location

Great location. Within close proximity to multiple MRT stations, Chinatown and Hawkers Markets. Thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Only negative is that the mattresses felt like sleeping on wooden boards but that seems to be a common theme for Singapore hotels.

Due to my flight being delayed, it was handy to have a 24/7 reception service upon arrival. Staff where really nice and helpful. Rooms where exactly what I needed during my stay. Hotel was within walking distance to Chinatown food/shopping/train station district and Maxwell Food Centre. The downsides are the hotel's elevator was out of order due to being under maintenance and the loud music at night since the hotel is surrounded by restaurants and bars.

The room I reserved was an XL - WITH WINDOW - TWIN, described as 150 sq ft. It was actually tiny with not enough space for the luggage of 2 people. One bag had to be stored between the beds. I questioned the reception clerk and she swore that the room was the XL. Maybe they included the nonfunctional balcony. I enquired about an airport taxi for departure and the front desk personnel said you could reserve one for an extra S$8 or they could call on the day of departure and get one in a few minutes. I stressed that I needed a taxi that accepted credit card. I liquidated all my Singapore currency based on that information. On the next morning, I came down to the lobby at 0700 and requested a taxi, again stressing the need to use a credit card. The clerk on duty said the taxis only accept cash. I knew this to be incorrect from past experience - I used CC from the airport about 7 years ago and I checked Google on fares, travel times etc. I asked her check, she told me to have a seat! I waited about 12 - 15 mins and still no information - she was on the phone. At that point, I told her I had to go! I knew I could use CC on the MRT. I walked about a block down the street, hailed a taxi and asked if he could accept CC. Yes, VISA, MC, etc. I find it totally unacceptable that a hotel would put on the front desk a clerk with no clue about Singapore taxies! Note: this clerk was not one of the persons I spoke with on the preceeding day. Pros - excellent location!

Overpriced for what you get
Stayed at the family room with balcony for around 200 SGD. Beds were clean and room was big enough for one night. Good part of the hotel is basically it. Following are negative part I wish I knew before I book this hotel. 1. Luggage storage. Hotels.com shows this hotel has luggage storage but they do not have proper locked storage room. They will ask you to put your luggage at corner of the lobby space which is risky. 2. Refrigerator: my room had one but it’s very dirty with molds and didn’t work properly. I put some water and drinks in it over a night but it wasn’t cold next day. 3. Cleanliness of the room: Bathroom door was very dirty with molds and it seems they don’t even try to clean them. Also many area of the room was dirty as well. 4. Noise: my room was facing the street and noise of the clubs around lasted until midnight. With small kids, it’s really terrible. You need ear plugs if you are sensitive for noise. 5. Internet: you get a code for one person. If you plan to use multiple devices, you couldn’t. Anyway their WiFi doesn’t work at all so forget about it. Fortunately I didn’t have to rely on it so it’s ok but if you need Wi-Fi at a hotel, avoid this one. Public Wi-Fi is much faster. 6. TV: after realizing there is almost no internet. Ok. TV remote has buttons of Netflix and Amazon prime… of course it didn’t work either! in addition they only have one channel working… Overall it’s only worth 50-80 dollars considering location.

The staff were very pleasant and this property is in an excellent position to get around Singapore on public transport both MRT and buses. It is in a great spot for touring Chinatown and for dining at places ranging from outstanding hawker markets to high end restaurants. The hotel decor is kitchy and interesting but little things need fixing like hooks off curtains , shower heads that need replacement hangers and you need a spare roll of toilet paper in the room. We loved our stay here but it would have been perfect if these little repairs had been done by a general maintenance schedule. This is a great position hotel.

First of all, price was in USD and is definitely more expensive than other platforms. Room was upgraded to XL, but was shocking to see how small it was. I booked 'L' so I cannot imagine how pathetic it can be. Toilet condition is bad. When I try to flush, water from the handle will be leak badly. Overall is not worth the money.

I didn’t like that I informed them on my first day that the tv wasn’t working. One attendant did come and try to reprogram the tv. When that didn’t work I inform them again and they said they were going to reboot the system. They must still be rebooting the system because the 3 nights passed and I checked out without a working television.
