“Only stay here if just want a bed”

I stayed at this hotel with my sister and i booked a room with two beds. When we arrived the manager tried to charge me extra for a two bed room saying i had booked a room with one bed. After lots arguing and threatning to contact expedia he gave in and let us have our original room i booked free of charge. The room itself was very dark as it had no window and only two lights worked. The bathroom floor always flooded when you used the shower as there was no divider. The TV only had a couple of channels tunned in and we had to ask to have our room cleaned which it was but poorly. The only positives of this hotel was the location as it was only 10 min walk from two MRT train stations and it has a fridge in the room. Overall i would only recommend this hotel if you are travelling by yourself and you are not fussy about basic luxuries.

“A Bad Experience”

We had to stay here because there was no other hotel available, as the Grand Prix was on. Now we know why there was a vacancy! The location was good and interesting - in the Arab quarter - but the hotel was dirty, not maintained well, there was no soap, hot water did not work, only one sheet and no bedspread on the bed, looked like our room had not been cleaned and the staff (apart from one man) was quite detached. It is only one star, but at lease it could be clean! I would not recommend it to other travellers.

“Room stank, bathroom was filthy and I would not recommend to anyone! No stars hotel!”

If we hadn't arrived after midnight and if I hadn't already paid for this hotel, I would never have stayed the night. The front desk clerk did not even have us registered!!!!!! Absolutely aweful accommodation (including Cockroaches in the fridge) for a very unreasonable price!!!!!! Family have stayed in backpacker accommodation that was 5 star compared to this!

“Want 2 sleep w/ rouches!”

If you are the kind of person that has no morales take your better half here! I didn't like it, slept with rouches that first night the second night we left..

“Rooms rented by the hour!”

I have stayed in many hotels around the world ranging from 1 to 5 star and this is certainly the worst I have ever seen! The hourly room rates were displayed for all to see in reception and we saw many a couple arrive with no luggage!!?? The staff (we only saw one surly man the whole 4 days) were not helpful. The room was very dirty and was not cleaned once even though we asked several times. There was a TV in the room which didnt work and a kettle but no cups. Avoid at all costs!!
