After a week long search for budget accomodation for my family, found this gem of a hotel. I would definitely recommend to all tourists with kids. Worth the money paid. Connected to all parts of Singapore via route#33 bus, with stop less than 1 minute away. Had good sized room enough for 3, hot water in bathroom and clean towels. Came with a window and daily housekeeping. They have a water dispenser near reception to fill in our bottles unlimited and a storage room to keep our luggages in, in case of early arrival or late departures. What else can a budget traveler ask for? THE BEST!

Good budget hotel. Do not expect anything amazing but it's enough for a short stay. The location is great, a lot of shops cafés and restaurants. Around 15min walk to the MRT. The deal on the Trip app was really good so that's why I booked it. Overall a pleasant stay.

I give you 1/5 in cleanliness for the first room, and 3/5 for the second room you gave me. Luckily we just stayed here for one day. In the evening just after we went out, i found a LOT of cockroaches in my room. I reported to the front desk and they managed to give me another room. But still, we were not sleeping well and worried. Service and location is good. Near 7-eleven and walking distance to bus stop, mall, and mrt station. I just recommend you to call pest control. My review is based on my experience, not reflecting other experiences, maybe your experience is (or will be) better than mine. Thank you.

I stayed here recently and found the room to be okay considering the price—it was decent for a budget stay. However, I was quite disappointed with the housekeeping service. The room was not cleaned properly on a daily basis, and the coffee mugs provided in the room were never replaced. Guests are apparently expected to wash and reuse the same mugs every day, which I found a bit unhygienic and inconvenient. With a bit more attention to cleanliness and basic guest needs, the experience could be much better.
Response from Property: Dear Guest , Thank you for letting us know we have met your expectations as a budget-conscious urban explorer! Our housekeeping team will perform basic room cleaning daily including replacing used towels and sheets as part of room make-up service in line with usual hotel standards. Coffee mugs provided in rooms are reusable and not intended for single use or disposable replacement. It would help us tremendously if our guests would place coffee mugs that are intended to be washed directly into the bathroom basin - this will make it clear to our lovely housekeeping team to attend to them.We are surprised by your comments as we did not received any feedback from you during your stay. Please do not hesitate to seek immediate assistance from our front desk colleagues so that they may quickly resolve your concerns during your stay.We appreciate your feedback and hope you had a good trip in Singapore.Warm Regards,JanetGuest Experience Executive

Very bad experience – not recommended I had a very disappointing stay at this hotel. When booking, I specifically requested a room on a higher floor and away from the lift. However, upon arrival, I was placed on the ground floor in a room that smelled terrible and was very humid – it was affecting my health. We asked to change rooms, and they moved us to level 2, but it was right next to the lift. Throughout the night, there was constant noise from people using the lift, making it very difficult to sleep. On top of that, the walls were so thin that we could hear everything from the room next door – conversations, showers, everything. We called the reception to complain, but they didn’t take any action or offer any solution. Overall, the customer service was extremely poor. I would not recommend staying here.
Response from Property: Dear Guest, Thank you for your feedback, and we are sorry for the inconvenience you experienced.While room assignments are system-generated based on availability at the time of check-in, we understand the importance of honouring pre-booking requests, and we regret that your preference for a higher floor away from the lift was not fulfilled. We also apologize for the condition of the initial room and the discomfort caused by the second room’s proximity to the lift.We are especially concerned to hear that your call to reception did not receive timely assistance, and we are addressing this with our team to improve responsiveness and guest care.We regret that your experience was not up to the standards we strive for, and we appreciate your feedback as it helps us improve. We hope to have the opportunity to welcome you again and provide you with a more comfortable and pleasant stay.Warm Regards,JanetGuest Experience Executive

I had a pretty good experience overall at this hotel. They didn’t charge a deposit, and aside from being a bit far from the subway, I didn’t notice any other downsides. The price was reasonable too. I’ll definitely stay here again the next time I’m in Singapore.

A quick short getaway from the chaos of the house, and quite near to places for foods from morning till night. Though, bear with the price.
Response from Property: Dear Weng Kai,Thank you for staying with us.We are pleased to hear that you had enjoyed your stay with us and enjoyed the tranquil premises and convenient location.Room rates during your stay might have been higher due to the school holiday season.We hope to have you stay with us again.

A bit far from the MRT station. I booked this because the price is good and it seems to be closed to the East Coast Park. Turn out it also takes a while to walk to the East Coast Park. But hotel staffs are very kind and helpful. Facilities are new and are in good conditions. Recommended if you are looking for a budget hotel!
Response from Property: Dear Guest,Thank you for staying with us and appreciating our highly competitive room rates, great facilities and the warm service from our staff. Bus 33 right outside our hotel goes to Dakota MRT station and from there allows easy access to city center and attractions. We look forward to welcoming you back for another great stay with us!Warm Regards,RolandGuest Experience Executive
