The hotel is superbly located right opposite Bencoolen MRT station, making it highly convenient for exploring the City Hall area and attractions. The rooms are well-lit, equipped with basic essentials, and meticulously cleaned, providing a comfortable stay overall. However, the dining options could be more varied, catering mainly to local tastes. The service is friendly but would benefit from improvement in customer service skills. Value for money is reasonable given the prime location.

I absolutely loved my stay at this hotel! The location is superb, right next to the Bencoolen MTR station and in the central City Hall area, making it so convenient to explore. The rooms were decently comfortable with good lighting and air conditioning, but the walls could do with a bit of sprucing up.

Overall, a good value for the money.

The hotel is conveniently located right in front of Bencoolen MRT station, making it easy to get around the city. The rooms have basic facilities but come without milk and with questionable decor.
