Tv low resolution, old style live tv with limited channels. Wall is paper thin, can hear next door turning on and off switches. It is relatively close to airport.
The main reason for my stay was an early flights the next day. Great location with lots of restaurants and shops around. Also only15-20min from the airport if you are taking a taxi/Grab. I decided to go with public transit, which involves a bus to MRT transfer (or you can walk 20 min). It took around 1 hour total door to door.
The hotel itself was fine for a night. I don’t mind staying in windowless rooms, but there needs to be good lighting in the room, which was not the case. The bathroom had one very small light that made almost no difference. I also found the mattress to be very hard and would have found it difficult to sleep on it more than 1-2 nights.
Overall, i would stay again as the price was worth its proximity to the airport and the Joo Chiat neighborhood was quite nice.
Good hotel with a great location from the airport. AC works great room is big enough for 3 of us.

The bed was comfortable. The staff were extremely polite and friendly, the rate was good and the food in the street was excellent. Good for our 12 hour stopover.
Good value for money. Basic but has all essentials. Close to airport & 18 min walk to train line. Luggage storage. Friendly staff. Very firm bed, not very comfortable.
Joo Chiat road is in the Katong neighborhood and a part of Perankan culture. Don't forget to visit the Peranakan mansion down the street. the bus syrem and trains in Singapore make it easy to get around. We visited Gardens bg the bay, little India, Orchard Road and the Night Safari (Mandai- Singapore Zoo) using public transportation.
