The property is located close to everything you need and provides services really helpful to the tourist. The staff are amazingly friendly and helpful. The pricing was good; the photos are obviously staged to present the best impression. In reality, the building is a little tired and the rooms are small. Netflix is not free as advertised but WiFi is. I would stay again but be more mindful of upgrading the room.

Amazing hotel. My friend and I had the double twin room and although it was smaller than it looked in pictures, it was still very spacious. The bathroom was also very modern and well furnished. The only thing I have to say it was that the shower drain wasn’t as fast as it could be which meant water would go everywhere (bathroom was a wet room so it was fine) and get higher. Cleaning was done every 3-4 days, but they also had a system in place if you needed anything earlier. The hotel is also very well situated. It is near a small mall and plaza that sells local foods, has a grocery store and small markets, as well as many restaurants and bakeries. It is also very close to Chinatown (less than 15-minute walk). The nearest MRT station is about a 10-15 minute walk away, but there are many bus stops around the hotel that will get you pretty much anywhere. Overall, this hotel was beautifully furnished and maintained. Very well organized as well, especially for their shared common space. A perfect stay and at a very affordable price too. Highly recommend and would definitely go back.

Not good

It was really bad. There were a few staff who tried their best to assist- and appreciate the effort but there were many issues with dirty room, no room service (we stayed for 6 nights) , room not as advertised, urgent issues not being assisted with and general wear and tear. Towels old , marks and scratches on the wall

I had initially booked one week here, but due to flight cancellations ended up staying for almost two weeks and I would happily stay again. The co-working area was really useful (with decent wifi), the staff were great and the rooms were mostly well-kept. I had a couple of minor issues but they were sorted quickly and with a smile. The only downside I found is that I would say the rooms could do with a bit of a spruce-up (a couple of the plug sockets weren't working and there are scuff marks on the walls) plus it's disappointing that there is no aerial/cable signal available for the big TVs in the rooms, but it is good that they are internet connected to be able to watch Netflix/YouTube.

Cozy and clean

Nice hotel for the traveller who does not want to stay in the city center. I stayed for two weeks in one of their hotel apartments, because I wanted to be able to cook for myself, wash clothes etc. The hotel is not very new or modern compared to some of those you’ll find downtown, but it’s very cozy.

Really good value for morning. Great location about 5 minute walk from the 100am mall which has a Don Donnie as well as a Fairprice supermarket, multiple dining options including So Good Bakery, Toast Box, Mincheng Bimbimbap, Starbucks. Also same distance to Tanjong Pagar Centre with another Fairprice supermarket (this one bigger, frequented by locals, open 24 hours!), a good hawker center. 10 minute to Guocco Centre with more food options. Two MRT stations both within 10 minute walk - Tanjong Pagar and Outram Park (which is a large interchange station). 10 minute walk to Maxwell Food Centre, Duxton Hill. Fantastic free coffee machine (one of those with buttons to choose Americano, Créma, Espresso…etc) in the Communal Kitchen, also mineral water machine with really cold water. Saves a lot of money. Big fridge in kitchen with supplies to make labels. Super clean, super quiet. No TV channels or complimentary streaming but that’s ok because there is free wifi and you can watch on your own devices. Would definitely stay here again.

Good cheap stay with good shared facilities

Located near Cantonment road, this is only a short 5 min walk away from a really nice mall. Room itself was fine, bed was firm but okay. Sealant between the windows, bathroom and floor needs redoing as you do get a very small number on ants when we stayed. Bathroom was great, but again could do with better sealing around the tiles to reduce small pests from coming through. Shared facilities were great and staff were very helpful. Did not use the pool but that looked okay, could do with better lighting out there. Great location near Outram station so you can get to Sentosa and Chinatown pretty easily as only a few stops on the MRT. We stayed for a week and loved it.

The small rooms are very small. We were not bothered about the room so much because we were going to be out all day. But I would have preferred a bedside table. Only on one side because the otherside is against the window and wall. Had to keep waking up to get to my phone near the door. The doors are very loud. Kept getting woken up throughout the night with doors being smacked and the floor is not carpeted so you can hear all the footsteps. We stayed for 8 days. Only our bed sheet was changed once because I removed it to be changed. House keeping is Tuesday and Friday for block A. Shops and 7/11 walking distance. There’s also metro station and bus stops all in 10min walking distance.
