Pros:

Location

Cons:

I know it’s a three-star hotel, but it’s very different from what I expected from a three-star hotel. If you’re looking for somewhere affordable, it’s okay, but it doesn’t really feel like a three-star hotel. The beds are quite small, the furniture is old, and the floors are hard and not carpeted. Not much supplies

Value and location
Pros:

The location and price are great, the friendly helpful staff are a bonus.
10 minutes easy walk will get you to Paya Lebar MRT station . There are plenty of food options nearby including a hawker centre as well as more upmarket options and a local market with a fruit stall and bakery
The hotel itself is old school and a little run down. The plus side to being an older hotel is that the rooms are far bigger than most newer Singapore hotels . The pool is likewise huge. We would definitely recommend if you want value location and don’t mind an older more basic room/ bathroom

Cons:

Corridor noise is a problem in the rooms.
