Pros:

L'hotel è carino e pulito. La zona è tranquilla anche se essendo vicino alla moschea la mattina presto si sentivano le preghiere al megafono .

Cons:

L'hotel non ha la possibilità di fare colazione ed è difficile trovare un posto nelle vicinanze dove fare una colazione occidentale.

Would highly recommend
Pros:

Great location, near to Arab street. Train station and buses nearby. Short walk to Bugis. The room was spacious, clean, quiet. Bathroom was great with nice toiletries provided. Water provided and air conditioning! Room was on 3rd floor, felt very tucked away and private and quiet.

Pros:

Location is nice

Cons:

Came with broken glass in room safety hazard, layout is extremely small and uncomfortable even for two people max in this room is a single person and it’s still very tight, lack of privacy due to windows in front of beds which people often pass through and not soundproof everyone could hear me and I could hear everyone’s business

Pretty hotel
Pros:

The location is excellent - right beside Kampong Glam, so there are a lot of good food options and you're also near one of the most picturesque parts of Singapore. The heritage building itself is beautiful too - both the architecture and the decor inside. The room is fairly clean and the staff are friendly. Beds are comfortable. Bathroom is decently stocked.

Cons:

Just a minor thing - the aircon dripped water onto the floor so we had to put a towel on the floor to absorb the water. It's a fair walk, maybe 10ish minutes from the nearest station (I think Bugis). Also, the rooms aren't noise proof or sound proof. I can hear people in the upper floors when it was being cleaned, and I can hear people walking and talking in the corridors outside.

J'avais surtout envie de partir le plus vite possible.
Pros:

Chambre trop petite pour 2 personnes avec une forte odeur de moisie. Nous avons demander à changer de chambre à l'accueil et on nous a répondue que toute les chambres était comme ça. L'emplacement est parfait par contre. Et pour le déjeuner c'est un service que je n'ai pas pris donc je ne peux pas vous donner mon avis.

Cons:

Les chambres sentent mauvais et sont trop petite, du moisie partout dans la salle de bain, sur les murs, sur les joints et sur le plafond.
