Calidad precio, agua potable y cerca del metro
Pros:

Buena relación calidad precio, me gustó que estuviera cerca de Hawnkers para comer barato y tomar café buenisimo por menos de dos dolares.
La estacion de metro estaba a unos 15 minutos andando, y si usas Google maps puedes disfrutar del transporte publico más economico.
Me encantó que tuviera agua potable para rellenar botellas o beber directamente.
La ducha y baño eran de buena calidad, limpios y con buena presión.
He disfrutado mucho de Singapur, y este hotel ha sido magnífico.

Cons:

Por poner algo negativo, la habitación era muy pequeña y habia pocos ganchos o perchas donde dejar ropa o bolsas.

Tiny double room, sealed “window”, cleanliness and noise problems – but kind staff
Pros:

The staff was the only good thing about the stay. They were very kind, polite, and always happy to help with anything I needed. Their friendliness and willingness to assist really stood out and made the experience much better than it would have been otherwise.
The hotel is on Joo Chiat Road, in one of Singapore’s most characterful neighbourhoods. This area is known for its colourful Peranakan shophouses, heritage architecture and a lively mix of old-school eateries, hawker stalls and trendy cafés. It feels more local and residential than the main tourist zones, with plenty of good food options within walking distance and a relaxed, village-like atmosphere.

Cons:

Unfortunately, the stay did not meet my expectations.I stayed here after choosing it specifically because it offered a double room with a window. At this price level in this area, that matters—some nearby hotels don’t even have windows. Although this room was advertised as having a window, it was sealed, and effectively blocked, and there was even no real view or feeling of openness. It didn’t feel like a proper window room.

The room was extremely small for a double. There was barely enough floor space to open one suitcase, not even for two at the same time. No storage and movement very limited.

Cleanliness was also an issue. I noticed visible dirt and dust under the bed, which suggested the room had not been thoroughly cleaned.

Noise was another major problem. Other guests were very loud at 4 - 5 am in night, and there seemed to be no sound insulation or staff intervention, making it difficult to sleep.

For the price, I expected a more comfortable, clean, and quiet stay. I would not recommend this room type unless these issues are addressed.
