Pros:

地點好,旁邊有百貨附近有早餐,這次想吃當地早餐沒享用一樓咖啡廳。
除了房卡只有一張,家人中要單人出門比較不便,其他設備跟房間舒適,頂樓還有游泳池可放鬆。

Highly recommended for Singapore visit!
Pros:

I specifically wanted to be away from the downtown area, and the neighbourhood was a delight for wandering and eating. Super easy access to the MRT as well.

Stay in the heart of Katong
Pros:

Good hotel for an overnight stopover. Lovely view from our window of the old buildings in Katong. Free soft drinks and nibbles in the mini bar. Staff are helpful and friendly.

Cons:

The bathroom could use some maintenance. The sink wasn’t draining properly. The shower had soapscum on the glass and some mould in the corners.

The value was what was outside the hotel more than what was inside.
Pros:

It was located in Joo Chiat.....the place we wanted to be.

Cons:

We paid more for the location (in Joo Chiat area) more than for the facilities. Could have stayed at IBIS at half the price.

Hôtel charmant et bien situé à Singapour
Pros:

Le personnel était très aimable. Les chambres sont très confortables et bien aménagées. La climatisation fonctionne tres bien. La piscine sur le toit est un grand plus et les serviettes de bain sont mises à disposition. Il y a également des boissons (eau, café) et des biscuits à volonté dans le hall d’entrée. L’hôtel est bien situé, les transports en commun sont à proximité et il y a beaucoup de restaurants dans le quartier.

Cons:

Les chambres et les salles de bain sont un peu petites, il manque de l’espace pour mettre les valises et les affaires.
