A pretty standard railway hotel for the money. Rooms are basic but clean, all you need for a good nights sleep before catching an early train.
Close by to shopping centres and the train station is about a five minute walk.
Some eateries near by but I got there quite late so didn’t have time to explore.
Breakfast was reasonable however the coffee could have been better as could the hot water supply to the shower.
My nights sleep was broken by the rowdy locals potentially an argument between the rough sleepers opposite also a weird series of banging noises sounded like boulders being dumped from a truck near by happen once close by then a few more times in the distance. Apart from that all good.

Staff was excellent and helpful. Curtains would not close. Air conditioner worked wonderfully. Clean rooms.
Rooms are good enough in terms of size and cleanliness, only cons is that there's only one staff washroom at the main lobby which was in quite bad condition, doesn't suit to be part of a hotel.

They tried to charge again for the tax, even though we had paid. The bathroom had other peoples hair in it and were not cleaned. The area outside the hotel didn't feel safe for women or children.
The breakfast was good and the doorman was very helpful with directions

I'm mad Expedia for not knowing rhat there is a countrywide hotel tax paid at the hospital.
2 Best things about the hotel:
* very affordable food options in the hotel although it was double or trupple the street price, it was cleaner and had more variety than street breakfast
* best proximity to CIQ. Literally the first hotel outaide the mall connected to CIQ and thus Singapore
