Nice and comfortable stay
Pros:

This was our 4th stay, so you can figure out how much we like staying in this hotel. The front desk was very helpful with our early check in and ordering taxis from the hotel.

Cons:

Sometimes room service is very late and takes until evening to show up to clean the rooms. Otherwise, no complaints..

Ci hanno dato la possibilità di farci una doccia prima di andarcene e dopo il check out. Grazie mille. Dopo il caldo della giornata di Singapore è stato proprio un bel gesto.

Pros:

The rooms are comfortable and the hotel is centrally located.

Cons:

The pillows are uncomfortable. Barely any difference between the soft and firm ones. The breakfast menu is very basic and not much of a global spread.

A very nice and clean hotel with friendly staff. It offers good value for the money, with the only minor downside being
Pros:

Very clean, with friendly and caring staff. The building is modern, and the breakfast selection is quite good

Cons:

The location is quite far from the city center and is only served by the bus line, not by train, which makes the commute by public transport rather long. However, the lower price compared to central hotels helps compensate for this
