Negative Reviews
negative:
Not the best location
This hotel is located in the Geylang district of Singapore which doesn't have the best of reputations. Guests mention that this area is frequented by prostitutes which can be a concern for those travelling with children. Also, the hotel is quite some way out from the centre of Singapore where many of the tourist attractions are and it's a bit of a walk to the nearest MRT station. Guests say that the bus is the better way to travel into the centre since the bus stop is very close to the hotel.
negative:
Rooms quite small
Guests report that the rooms in this hotel are quite small. Unfortunately, this is a common problem in Singapore and most budget hotels will have similarly sized rooms.
negative:
Staff could be better
Guests would like a more consistent standard of service from this hotel's members of staff. At times they offer a friendly welcome and expedient assistance but at other times they can be somewhat unhelpful and disinterested.
