Summary Small room but nice hotel
Review We had an economy room which was on the small side but had adequate space for two bags. It also had a good wardrobe, ac, bathroom (wet room) with hot water, in-room wifi – moderately fast and quite reliable, although did have a problem connecting using Windows devices, Android devices worked fine.

TV had three English language film channels.

The room didn’t have a window but instead had a nice wood & paper panel with strip lights behind it that gave the impression of a window – although it didn’t allow you to check outside to see if it was raining. The room was a little airless and drying washing did take a while.

Buffet breakfast was very good, coffee, tea eggs, toast, pickles and hot rice and vegetable dishes.

Staff all very friendly and helpful, general level of spoken English was quite good.

Very well located for the MRT and airport bus.

Highly Recommended.
