Very accessible to MRT but still I won't stay at this hotel . Carpet on the hallways so filthy . It smells and has stains . Food for breakfast is terrible . For our 5 Nights of stay, food is bland and the menu is the same . Had breakfast at 8:30 and by that time food is gone. They don't replenish the trays. Room gets warm in the early morning.

The best I can give is good at best.
The room in the picture isn't the room we stayed in, we had a King Size Bed. For two nights it's smelled as someone was smoking near us, no smoke detectors installed, only fire protection. Room was in need of repair, see attached photo. Airport Shuttle service is having the Hotel call for Taxi service, misleading information. Breakfast, better off not taking advantage of the Hotel offer.

Great hotel for more than 2 people and excellent location. My sister and her 3 children (ages 17, 14, 11), 4 of them were able to fit ok in the triple room. The bedding was good for this purpose. The hotel's amenities is not top notch, bathroom vent is quite loud and the blinds played up a bit. But we weren't in the room much of the day so it served its purpose for sleeping only. At night it can be a bit noisy as there's a bar/club somewhere near the building. However, I didn't mind it because there's 3 different MRT around that makes it very easy to travel around Singapore. Also, please be aware they do not have laundry facilities only laundry service. If you want to wash your own clothes I would recommend walking to Victoria Hotel, less than 10mins walk. They have a coin operating washing machine and dryer there that's open to the public.

Will not recommend :(
Initially we were given room 711. Felt body itchy all over and realised there are bed bugs. Requested change of room and thankfully there was but twin sharing. Don't really care much so long I don't get bitten again. Room 302 was much bigger than the previous room but the mattress wasn't spine support friendly. Didn't sleep well during my two nights there. Room was really small. Wall half painted and interior wasn't that inviting unlike what was shown as advertised. No box of tissue provided. Basic toiletries but no holder for the mini soap bar at the basin. Room has a damp smell. Now coming to the breakfast part, nevermind the fact we use disposables but breakfast was so so. The fried kway teow and fried rice ok. But not for the noodle that goes with the spaghetti sauce. Has a rubbery feel. It's not really pasta noodle. saw a lot of plates with the noodles leftover. Please serve bread in future. With eggs, butter, jam to go along with. You can't go wrong with that. At least any leftover bread, you can still keep for the next day or make into french toast. In this way, wastage can be significantly reduced. Also beverages provided is only confined to 3in 1 coffee or tea. Surely no harm in providing more variety like plain coffee or tea right? Will not stay in this hotel. Believe there are better ones in the vicinity like Hotel Mi, Bencoolen 30, Strand, etc.

Satisfied with mini staycation
The kettle in our room was rusty, and the staff changed it immediately. Fast response! The staff also arrange for the maintenance department to adjust the air-conditioning in our room. Furnishings were a bit old but clean, no bugs no insects nothing. Buffet breakfast wasn't a lot of choice, but still not too bad. Location is good and convenient. Overall I am satisfied with my mini staycation and will not hesitate to choose this hotel again.
