The hotel is easy to locate. The receptionist is very accommodating. We arrived at the hotel early and we were able to leave our luggages at the counter. It made our strolling easy without the heavy luggages.

I read some reviews about the smell in the rooms and as it turns out, they were all true. My room smelt worse than a public lavatory. I asked front desk to do something about it. They said they would get housekeeping to put something down the drains for the smell. That didn't happen. I came soo close to just checking out and finding another hotel. Instead, I bought a heap of airfreshner to keep spraying the room. I then tried placing the bath towells over the bathroom drains, but even that didn't help much. It is a permanent smell that can't be shifted. Yes, the hotel is old, the sheets are threadbare, but the toilet smell is unforgivable. I wont be staying here again and cannot recommend this hotel. There are plenty of other good stays around Singapore at a good price. For travellers using public transport, there are plenty of buses across the road, but Jalan Besar is a one way street, so getting back to the hotel is a bit tricky and involves some walking, or MRT + Bus to get back. My best advice with this hotel is to save your money.

One of cheap hotel I can found in Singapore, but I don't think it's a good choice. It's a renovated old hotel and had Instagramable photos on the internet, but the room didn't have good smell, it was wet and damp smell. The ambiance was dark and a little bit creepy in the corridor. Staff was friendly and helpful.

But I was spending most of my days outside, so it was okay. The hotel located near bus stops and MRT station. Mini market located accros the hotel.
