The WiFi is too slow, the kitchenware is a bit old, which makes people lack the desire to cook. Everything else is good.

Overall is fine with the price and if you need to have a small kitchen to cook light meals. The location of the hotel is also convenient to go around the city and Shaw plaza is just across the street as well.

The location is very good. There are bus stops downstairs and opposite, making it easy to go anywhere. Opposite is Shaw Plaza, where there is a supermarket. You can go to Ya Kun for breakfast. Boon Tong Kee and promoter Bak Kut Teh are also about 100 meters away from the apartment. It is very suitable for family travel. The bed is large, and there are kitchen utensils and a washing machine. In a place with this kind of climate, a lot of clothes are washed every day, and the configuration is very user-friendly.

This hotel is indeed very good and I highly recommend it. The most important thing is the help I received from “Ken”. The room was also very comfortable to stay in. If you are a Chinese and come to Singapore for the first time, I recommend this place, The premise is that you have to bring enough cash, hahahahaha
