Staff didn't share the right locations. Directed wrong locations. Welcome drinks missing. They just kept quiet until check out time we saw a standing signboard abt welcome drinks for room guests. Room was not really clean and noisy when people talking outside the door, old which we paid SGD9guests.

Not bad at all

Not bad at all but hotel.com was wrong on the navigation and I struggled to find it. Once there everything went smooth. Maybe noisy on main road, better to be on the back of the building

A haunted hotel room

We were given room 1004 and it is haunted. Our room was blackout and in total darkness for 4 times as the room card flew off to the ground by itself breaking the circuit. It was on the ground each after we placed it back, we immediately request for changing of room and no questions were asked by the front desk.
