My stay at this hotel was overall pleasant, with a few ups and downs. The rooms were well-equipped with basic amenities like towels upon arrival, and I appreciated having a separate living hall and kitchen area. However, the wait for housekeeping to bring towels was a bit long. The location was convenient, being only a few minutes from the city center and having a nice sea view. On the downside, the hotel's proximity to the R & F Mall didn't offer much to see, and I wished some facilities were available on all floors.

My stay at the hotel was a mix of positives and negatives. The rooms were big, spacious, and comfortable with a stunning view from the suite room, but the service was a bit tired and confusing at times. The location was perfect for accessing Singapore easily, but not ideal for wandering around on foot. The dining options were somewhat bland and lacking variety, yet the facilities were satisfactory overall.

I stayed at the hotel for our honeymoon for the next 2 nights with an upgraded room. The rooms look old but clean, had a blocked sink, no toilet lights, no room safe, and were full of mosquitos. On the bright side, the service was very friendly. The location is the biggest letdown, not being close to the transportation hub or close to some money changers. The dining was good but could use more non-spicy options. The facilities were a bit disappointing.

My stay at the hotel was a mix of highs and lows. The rooms were spacious and equipped, offering a stunning view, but there was a noticeable antiquated smell of mildew. The service, from reception to housekeeping and the restaurant, left much to be desired, lacking empathy and seeming driven by money. The location was convenient being in the city center and near a new mall, but not close to the main train station. The dining experience was okay but could have been improved with more diverse food options. Overall, a stay with some positives and negatives.

I had a mixed experience at the hotel. The rooms were nice after being upgraded by the staff, but unfortunately, they were filled with baby cockroaches and had an antiquated feel with a mildew odor. The service was a bit of a letdown with some requested items not supplied by housekeeping and a long wait at reception for a room that wasn’t ready, though I appreciated the free room upgrade. The location was great, right at the access bridge to Singapore and within easy reach of various shopping malls and city center attractions. However, the dining experience was not good, and the beef dishes were disappointing.
