Location. Facilities. Free internet access. Cleanliness. Kitchen. Room layout. 'Living room' area. Not much that I can think of. Breakfast could have been a bit more imaginative. This was an excellent find and somewhere that I would not hesitate to stay at again. It had all the things that I needed - free no-nonsense internet access meant a great deal. For business trips, I have no need for room service, so was glad I wasn't paying for hotel kitchen and waiting staff that I hardly ever use. The air-conditioner worked perfectly (a must), the staff were polite and helpful, and it was clean.

5 minutes to MRT and department store little bit disadvantage about the space The location of the hotel is awesome. Just 5 minutes to Bugis MRT on foot. And there are good food courts and department store nearby. About the staff service is ok. The room and the area is clean but little bit disadvantage about the hotel’s lounge and room space. The price is reasonable for the location and the room like this.

The staff were friendly and helpful There was no seating area in the reception.
The bathroom didn't have a separate shower area.
No smoking rooms available. The hotel is in a great location - central to everything and close to public transport. The hotel staff were very friendly, helpful and patient, answering all questions and went out of their way to be accommodating.
The room however was not what I expected. The pillow cases were horrible - made out of the same material as disposable underwear!! The bathroom didn't have a separate shower area so everything got wet and there was no option of a smoking room which was not mentioned on the website.

Facilities are rather basic The Hotel is located in a very convenient district - Bugis. It is nearby the Bugis MRT station, with only 5 min walking distance. You can go travel by MRT conveniently. Besides, it is very closed to the famous Bugis Junction and several big shopping centers. On the other hand, as the hotel is targeted to 'budgeted' customers, the room price is low when compared to other hotels located nearby MRT stations. However, what you pay is what you get! The hotel room is very small, with very few space left around the bed. And, the room has an extremely small bathroom. It is difficult to shower there. Besides, the hotel doesn't provide some basic stuff, e.g., sandals, hand towels, in-room safe box.
I will still recommend the hotel to those who only need the hotel for sleeping (or short stay) only, and who consider convenience and price as imporatant factors.

The hotel is very convenient, just a bout 5 min walk to the MRT and walkable distance to the City Hall. The room is very small but clean. So overall, you pay for the convenience and a place to sleep in.

location is good! Check in and out was fast. free coffee and drinking water We can hear people talking from the hall way. The room is way too small and no windows. The hotel's location is very convenient, walking distance from a mall and alot of food courts. The room we stayed felt like a store room bec there were no windows. We can hear noises fron outside.

Convenience location, helpful staff. poor facilities maintenance. the bathroom washing basin is leaking, bathroom door has poor maintenance and cause it not sufficient to stop water thus make the room (near the door) got wet.
Toothbrush provided suitable for single use, so you may need to get more than one if need brushing more than 1 time per day. And, only 1 towel per guess.
Found hair left over by previous guess(es) on bed even on second day cleaning. Bed sheet got yellow stain.
It is good if you just require a place to sleep but i think it is expensive compare service / facilities.

friendly staff, good location, nearby to bugis junction and its shopping mall, walking distance to mrt station. no breakfast provided, the toilet is too small. two-night stay at this hotel was value for money. Even the room that i stayed no window, but the room was neat and tidy. The air con was good, even the corridor was very nicely air conditioned. surprisingly, there's a dvd player in the room which i didn't expect in a budget hotel. The staffs were friendly and helpful. The most important was the location, it was so nicely located, nearby to shopping mall and walking distance to mrt station, which make me easier to travel in Singapore.
Shopping Tip : so nearby to shopping malls.

Only thing i can say to be nice is location. Small (very very small), bad beds, this is a 1 star hotel. The name "hotel 81" is misleading, this is more like a motel/hostel. Everything in the hotel is small. Beds/room and the bathroom is the size of a closet with your shower/washer/toilet. Customer service does not make efforts to make your stay better. In addition, you will see many late night guest from other rooms along with noises.

The room is clean and neat. Pay a little more for upgrade to Deluxe room that is spacious and bright.
Within walking distance to all the shopping, Dinning and clubbing area.
Staffs are friendly.
The room door has very little sound isolation. Easily disturbed by other hotel users. The room is clean and neat. Pay a little more for upgrade to Deluxe room that is spacious and bright.

Everything is OK and acceptable. The room is tight and clear. The staffs are very helpful and good in English. The only problem is my room doesn't have window. It makes me feel uncomfortable, and didn't want to stay long at my room. If I will stay in this hotel again for my next visit to Singapore. Because it located near Bugis MRT station, their newly-opened national library and a lot nice shopping arcades. But, I hope I will be assigned a room with window. This is what I expected when I booked this hotel on their website.
Shopping Tip : Nice shopping arcades and national library and lots of vegetarian restaurants in the nearby shopping centre (Fortune Centre)

Friendly staff and good housekeeping, clean No Wardrobe, no window, tiny room. I was shocked to find this hotel with no windows in the room, but the room, although small, was very clean. Good location near Raffles, but tiny tiny room. For the price, you could do better.
