The room size is small in an old building, but it is close to the city, so it is good to access various tourist attractions. A convenience store and a 24-hour restaurant are right next door, and the hawker center is also nearby, so it's good for a meal.

DIRTY WORN OUT HOTEL❗❗
Worn Out, Dusty room all over, hard mattress & too soft pillows. I feel it's time the Management does something in improving guests comfort. Upkeep of rooms is getting worst

100% unsatisfied
The most terrible ever stay in my life. Room was fully un-tidy and smelled really bad. Especially the bed. It wasn’t re arranged properly and the bedsheets haven’t renewed after previous customer left out. Washroom was really wet and and not cleaned. Towels were also wet I guess they provided the same towels from previous customer. It was provided with only one water bottle for queen size double bed room. 100% unsatisfied.

Substandard accommodation with cigarette smell in the rooms which can be a trouble. The hotel definitely has a shady set of customers dropping by which makes it very awkward for the family members.
