Serendipity Rooms

My first reaction was that our room had a very strong bleach smell. And then at night, we found it was INFESTED with hundreds of ants… this made me wonder whether the overpowering smell of cleaning products may have been a short term fix to get rid of the ants for a few hours… As mentioned in some of the other reviews, the accommodation setup is quite unusual—just a few rooms in what feels like an old office building. The hallways are empty and quite dark, and the room doors don’t have numbers. Our door was wallpapered the same as the wall, so I thought it was a cleaning closet door! On the plus side, the check-in staff member was genuinely friendly and welcoming! Also the location is good too. The management ended moving us to another accommodation but it took a lot of time and effort to get some money back. As mentioned on many of the other reviews, they make it very difficult to receive refunds and it’s up to you to chase it until they reply. Very unprofessional and disappointing. We had the “junior suite” room which was spacious. They even had a small fridge with complimentary drinks. Unfortunately we weren’t able to enjoy our stay because of the ants and were disappointed at how the management handled our inconvenience.

Staff was very helpful & insightful on places to eat etc They made sure you had taxi’s and knew how to get around on trains & local buses. Great location with cool rooms
