10/10 Excellent
"Excellent location. Modern hotel. Walkable distance to Bugis Markets. Short walk to Bras Basah metro. Walkable to most attractions. Easy checking and check out. Guests need to be aware of what the box that looks like an alarm clock near bed actually does. i.e. This is the phone as well."
