Good size pool and fun waterpark, creepy dark changing room, need maintenance for toilet and shower room
Pros:

Lovely pool and good size water park for the family day out. However the changing room @ toilet need maintenance, some of the toilet has no light, very dark and very creepy. Told the staff about the faulty but no one even take a note for the repairing. Went back for the waterpark next day and still the same no lighting and creepy toilet, very disappointed.

Basic but fun
Pros:

The room is small, and just basic. The parking is very limited, however the guard is being helpful enough to arrange a lot for me.

The hotel offered small-concept water-part within the premise with 3 types of slides to offer and lazy river too.

Value for money!

Ordinary stay
Pros:

Stayed here for the water park as well as our transit point for our next journey

Room was clean albeit small in size. Simple amenities was provided and water pressure was fairly good. The hallway leading to the room was also well maintained

There is only 1 lift serving the establishment so if there is a lot of guest the wait can be a bit longer.

Parking is available in front of the hotel but not many lots.

Water park entry was included in our stay. However there was some pitfalls during our visit. Towels was not provided for hotel guest which I find it to be troublesome. I would suggest the management to provide it for your guest. Using the same towel at the water park to dry off after a clean shower in your own hotel room is certainly a NO.

Workers was cleaning and scrubbing the dirt and algae in the pool while we were there. So you could imagine the end results. We didn't stay long in the pool. If the management plans to clean the water park maybe a better plan can be carried implemented without affecting the guests

Washroom and showers is available at the water park.

If it wasn't for the inconveniences caused it would have been a better stay

Satisfactory but not without its faults
Pros:

Stayed at Grand Orient for one night for a business trip, and even though the hotel catered more for families with children (they have an in-house water park, though I did not try it out), I was generally satisfied with my stay.

Room:

Being relatively new certainly helped them in this regard, as the room's fittings were good and intact and the room itself felt fresh despite not having any windows. Bed and linen were comfortable, and the room was equipped with basic amenities. They provided an ironing board and iron which was a handy addition. Toilet was clean and modern.

My only complaint - the toilet had a small tube (most probably for draining air-conditioning condensate water) sticking out of the ceiling directly on top the sink, which dripped water once in a while. Definitely something that needs to be improved on. Also, the room was quite small and felt slightly cramped.

Location:

Not very conducive, as there are hardly any shops within walking distance. The nearest convenience store would be a petrol station, about a 5-minute walk away. You would have to drive out for food and goods.

Staff:

Professional and welcoming. No complaints.

Conclusion:

Even though the Grand Orient had an in-house water park and was more family-oriented, the hotel premises was generally clean. It is probably not well suited for certain target groups, so do bear in mind what your priorities are before considering this place. All in all an ok place, though I may have scored it higher if it weren't for the odd water leak issue in the toilet.
