I stayed in this hotel for 9 days. The room was a bit small, but all I needed was a place to sleep, as I was in Singapore for work. It is a short walk from Orchard Road, and in a quiet neighborhood. I hate noisy hotels, as I am a light sleeper, and this one was fine.
Tha housekeeper had a problem counting towels and washcloths. A few days, I had no washcloths, and one day the towel was not replaced. But they were quick to provide them when asked.
The items in the hotel gift shop were not extravagant, but the prices were decent, and the young lady that works there is most pleasant, and eager to assist.
The hotel breakfast, while good, is rather expensive at 30 Singapore dollars. So I went to the Tanglin Mall (attached to the hotel) and purchased cereal, milk, and yogurt for most of my breakfasts, which I kept in the small fridge. A few mornings I walked around the corner to the McDonalds, also in the Tanglin Mall. A few dinners were at Spageddies, also in the mall. I love their pasta, and nice large salads, so I usually visit a Spageddies at least once during my Singapore trips.
One thing that always dissapoints is the hotel internet charges in Singapore. For an island that prides iteslf on being high tech, and internet friendly, 25+ Singapore dollars a day is outrageous. So I kept it down to one hour a day at $9.63 Singapore. Still a ripoff for something that should be free.
Taxis were abundant, and I never had to wait more than 2-3 minutes during the busiest times. I reserved a taxi for my 4:30 AM departure to the airport (extra fee), but that was not necessary, as there were at least 3 taxis waiting.
All in all, I will stay there again on my next visit in 4-6 months, unless the company chooses another hotel.
