Highly recommended for your stay in Singapore
Pros:

Our stay at this hotel was excellent in a rather quiet area. The room was spotless and spacious. Its location is ideal, within walking distance of the city center and just two minutes from the subway. It is also very close to restaurants and tourist attractions. While the fitness center is a bit compact, it’s well-equipped for a basic workout. The pool is a fantastic bonus, and it’s clear that this is a new hotel.

非常棒
Pros:

住宿地點方便抵達,飯店人員都十分親切友善。早上去機場時如有需要,櫃台人員也很樂意協助叫車。
一樓大廳設有迎賓飲料很不錯。
房間雖然不算大但是很乾淨整潔,設計也很新穎。房間內設有淨水器能直接喝到飲用水這點非常棒。

Exceptionally clean, excellent location. The staff were amazing, friendly, extremely helpful and nothing was too much trouble.
