We had the suite with the double bedrooms and with the kitchen. It was a nice room, not many frills but everything worked and it was clean. There was enough space for my family of three. The rooms are well insulated so you do not hear the neighbors. The staff was always helpful and accommodating when possible, especially Helen. There were some facilities like a gym and a pool, but basic. The best thing is its location which was walking distance to the CBD (15mins), Chinatown (15mins), Outram MRT (10mins). Would definitely consider a return stay.

Good enough for a short stay, but the pool was not shown in the photos. I was mostly disappointed by the plunge pool. The room had everything I needed, but the exterior of the building could use a deep clean or refresh, as it looks nothing like the photos advertised — it appears quite old and dusty. I like the location, as it is walkable from Chinatown and some local hawker centres, and it’s about 10 minutes from the closest MRT station. The staff on site are very friendly and have been very helpful. Although I didn’t use the kitchen, I received an upgrade to a bigger suite on the day of check-in, which is why I’m giving a 4-star overall rating.

The staff are very friendly and very helpful in providing directions on how to get around with MTR. One of the stuff provided with detailed directions to bus station after getting off MTR station. That’s awesome. I would recommend the place.

Disliked: Amenities
The property is less hotel and more coworking space with a sparse lofty look & feel and amenities & colors to match. The fitness center and pool were minimal. Even the housekeeping was infrequent and failed to top up toilet roll usage, which should be a given. The airconditioning in my room was mild. The location is decent for downtown offices etc.
