Pros:

The price is good by Singapore standards, even if a bit high for the type of room (windowless).
The rooftop pool is a nice, useful feature.
It isn't right in the center, but the metro is close by.

Not for me
Pros:

The staff were very pleasant and helpful

Cons:

The breakfast was really horrible, cold, not even close to enough seating for anyone, hot food was cold and dry and just didn't appear to be clean or hygienic. The rooms are sufficient but the noise level is out of control, slamming doors, people in hallways, toilets and showers upstairs, next door etc, no soundproofing and with people coming home from 9pm till 2am and then people leaving from 2am sleep is impossible.
