Pros:

We got upgraded to the loft room, and it was a lovely experience. Bed was comfy, and while the aircon took a while to figure out, it worked great and kept the room very cold (the 24/7 reception helped us figure it out). The hotel is quite accomodating and clarified any questions we had via whatsapp (but it is faster to go down to the front desk). Amenities were fine overall too.

Cons:

Aircon took a while to figure out but it got working soon enough. Loft stairs are quite steep so be careful going down. Shower was not stocked with soap (maybe they didn't expect us there), so check first and ask the reception if it isn't there.

DON'T GO THERE!!
Pros:

Wifi was good. Close proximity to the MRT. Bed was comfortable.

Cons:

Everything. Room wasn't ready until well after check-in time. Apart from.the MRT, the location was questionable & we felt unsafe. Nowhere to sit in the lobby. The smallest room we have EVER stayed in, & the worst hotel out of 22 properties on our 80 day holiday around the world. The swimming pool & courtyard was a joke. So was the 3 star rating - more like zero stars.

The stay would have been much better. Manager is to be changed.
Pros:

The location of the property was good and accessible

Cons:

The manager of the property during my check-in was extremely cold and unaccommodating.
He was only focused taking money . We kept calling the person for linen water and other services, he was not helpful at all. He was not available in the property for the whole time. He just collected the money for check-in and he got disappeared. I would want to raise a complain against him so that he doesn’t give pain to other consumers/visitors.
