Pros:

A really cozy room with elaborate decorations on the bed and the lobby. The restaurant is pricey but the food is really good.

Cons:

The shower space is so cramped, that any one above slim size will just not fit.

Good for a family stay. Probably the only hotel that allows 2 (adults)+2(kids) in the same room.
Pros:

Location

Cons:

No Variety in breakfast and evening snack menu. The same menu is repeated every day. It gets boring to have the same food everyday. There aren't any optional services or common areas like gym, spa etc.

Overall a pleasant and appealing stay with comfort for families and kids enjoyed their own ways
Pros:

The entire team is fantastic. Infact I had a concern reported on my 3rd day of my stay for change in breakfast variety and Natasha the manager made it happen specifically for us. They took care of us really well. Highly recommend this hotel for a nice stay. All beds were of king size and bunk bed with king size with kids loved it. Very close to farrer park MRT. Easy commutation. Only thing is room could have been slightly bigger otherwise thoroughly enjoyed. The chefs were awesome. Made special Pongal for us in request.

Cons:

Rooms could have been slightly spacious for the cost paid. Menu could be dynamic instead of standard for morning and evening high tea. Whatever provided was excellent and we really liked it

A FUIR! HOTELIERS VOLEURS ET MALHONNETES!!
Cons:

A FUIR!! Nous avions réservé cet hôtel avec booking, en mars en signalant que nous étions une famille de 2 adultes et de 2 enfants, en précisant les âges, 10 et 14 ans. A notre arrivée, on nous a fait payer un SUPPLEMENT car soi-disant, notre enfant avait plus de 11 ans!! Or jamais booking ne nous avait annoncé un " extracharge!!". Pendant le séjour, la chambre était faite pour 2 voire 3 personnes mais jamais 4. Les pyjamas des enfants étaient en boule sur la minuscule table de la chambre! Et l'apothéose, à notre départ, on nous a ENCORE rajouté un autre supplément, pour notre 2ème enfant cette fois! Nous avons refusé de payer, ne comprenant pas du tout ces suppléments ABUSIFS et INCOMPREHENSIBLES! Surtout, l'hôtel s'est permis de prélever sur notre compte, SANS NOTRE AUTORISATION!!
Après une bonne vingtaine de mails, l'hôtel nous a remboursés notre dû et a fait une erreur en doublant le remboursement. Aujourd'hui, 1 mois et demi après, Serangoon s'est ENCORE PERMIS de prélever sur notre compte, sans nous en avertir!! On se demande aujourd'hui pendant combien de temps cet hôtel va avoir la main sur notre compte bancaire?!

Comfy beds and nice warm shower
Pros:

Comfortable bed

Cons:

The bunker bed is massive, and due to space, it is very close to TV and ceiling. Just make sure children don’t stand on the bed

Quirky, good location but cramped in the family room
Pros:

Location near the MRT station was good, price was decent, breakfast options were a nice combination of western & Indian.

Cons:

The room we had was quirky with a double bunk bed, but that took up so much of the space in the room it was very cramped. We had to rotate who could open their suitcase as there was only space to open one at a time.

Pros:

We had a great stay at the hotel, very close to a MRT station and good connection with main Singapore attractions. The room was clean and we had all we need for our stay in the city

Cons:

It's true the room is a bit small or the bunk too small for the room. Anyway, it was perfect for our needs.

Just a small issue, at the reception requested a taxi to the airport and they selected cash only. We didn't have any cash and we had to fix it at the airport. They should have asked us before order the taxi

Excellent compact accommodation
Pros:

Lovely location in Little India. The accommodation is clean and well kept, room amenities are all present in a very compact room. The hotel backs on to grass land and then Farrer park medical center which has a mrt station and a 7/11. There are plenty of shops in the local area.

Pros:

Es un excelente hotel para alojatte con niños. Las habitaciones son muy bonitas y divertidas para los niños. Aunque la camas son demasiado duras.
Estaria genial tener desayuno incluido, aunque sí cuentan con un corner de café y bollos en los que te hacen descuento.
Está muy cerca de la estación de metro y en pocos minutos y por poco precio te puedes mover rápido a los sitios más turísticos. Además, junto al metro hay punto de alquiler de bicis municipales.

Cons:

Las camas son demasiado duras
