I won't recommend and i won't revisit
Pros:

Things are new. everything are working and walking distance to little india and nearby train station

Cons:

STAY away if you can't sleep with noise. PAPER THIN WALLS, and the karoke business next door is loud due to PAPER thin window that has ZERO insulation. Peopele singing all the way up to 2 am. so if you can't deal with that. the other room faces the main street ,so car noises early in the morning.. soo thats that .. But the room is new, things seemed clean.

Pros:

Location. Hotel is near to MRT

Cons:

Room spaces not enough for 2 people. Washroom is too small and no space at all. There was no mirror in the room and no telephone to contact the reception. Not good for long stay.
