The worth staying budget hotel at very good rate. ”

It is value for money, location wise can be considered good but with limited parking space, the only drawback are the rooms are not sound proof, check-in counter closes at 10pm & walk-up shoplots, not suitable for old people. Unfortunately, we have encountered a small issue that the receptionist, who checked us in, speaks loudly causing disturbance to hotel guests. Good thing was the manager Mr Koh gave clear direction on how to enter the premise, he was pretty efficient & attentive, he helps in all our needs. Generally, others are good & we enjoyed our stay!

Wonderful Location, Polite Staff, Complete Facilities

We really enjoyed the location. Situated near local hawker food center. Near to Kek Lok Si and other attraction. The staffs were polite and helpful. The owner provide effective and efficient service. Facilities are well-provided and complete. two toilets were provided. ~~~ The rooms were smaller than expected. Sound-proof not ideal. Night time disturbed by noisy neighbors. The toilets are too small. The rooms are humid and smelly. The air-cond is not powerful enough for a hot room.
