雖然出遊都會安排好行程，住宿只是附加，但如果能有更好的睡眠和住宿品質，隔天的旅程會更加分
Pros:

這次入住的是6人房，房間很大，除了基本的餐桌、沙發，另外還有個小吧台和流理台，吃東西、喝酒、清洗、都很方便，更棒的是還有一個大陽台，可以看到週邊夜景，地理位置很棒，走路大概6-7分就到捷運中央公園站，在飯店附近停好車後我們就搭捷運到處玩，床是目前住過，床墊軟硬度最適合人體的，推薦給討厭軟床墊的人，服務人員態度也都非常好，整體而言是會期待再次入住的住宿，非常喜歡

Cons:

沒有配合的停車場，但是旁邊就有一個收費停車場，收費有點高，住宿的話可以先找一下路邊的停車格會比較划算

A fabulous place to stay. MRT is close by and plenty to see and do.
Pros:

We loved the ambiance and the art! You must check out all the floors! We were surprised and happy that there were laundry facilities, too. The basement is a cute place to get tea eggs, bread, and coffee in the morning. Overall, it is a fantastic place to stay. The MRT is very close and Uber makes everything accessible.

Cons:

I like the proximity to the surrounding food stores though the overall feel is that I’m there’s not many shops around th
Pros:

Room is big for a studio unit. Location is great as it’s about 15mins walk to Central Park MRT station.

Cons:

The path to the MRT station is not sheltered and when it rains, you would need to hail cab to the station instead
