Was greeted with a very warm welcome and like the stress free check in with easy to follow instructions. Room was spotless and with a nice view over the ocean,esplanade and lagoon. Everything we needed was here microwave.. stove..washing machine and all pots pans ect… Right outside front door is night markets and if you don’t want to cook there is a food court with food from around the world. But had a peaceful time and great security. Nice to return after 10 years and find it is still perfect. Thank you
