Fantastic location for food & shopping, but housekeeping can improve
Pros:

Location is fantastic, within easy walking distance of Gurney Drive Hawker Centre and Gurney Plaza, making it very convenient for dining and shopping. Having a private parking space right outside our room was a big plus, especially when travelling by car. The room was spacious enough for our family, and the WiFi was reliable throughout our stay.

Cons:

The bedsheets had visible stains, which affected our first impression of the room. It can also get quite noisy at night as guests return after dinner, so light sleepers may want to bring earplugs.
