- IOANNA (3/5): - Ήταν σε καλό σημείο Τα δωμάτια,αυτά που είχαν παράθυρο ήταν πάρα πολύ μικρά , μόνο μια χειραποσκευη μπορούσε κάποιος να ανοίξει.τα δωμάτια που δεν είχαν παράθυρο ήταν μεγαλύτερα .γενικά η καθαριότητα ήταν πενιχρή,τα έπιπλα πάρα πολύ παλια

- Heinz (5/5): Super Lage. Gestank im Zimmer katastrophal - Die zentrale Lage hat 5* der Gestank im Zimmer war unerträglich . Modrig, schweissig, muffig.
Dabei waren Boden. Vorhänge, Betten , Laken usw. alle gut im Geruch. Wir vermuten, dass der Filter vom Aircon voll Gestank ist und diesen weiter gibt.
Wir bekamen einen Luftentfeuchter. Keine wirkliche Besserung. Wir mussten die Zimmertüre zum Flur die halbe Nacht offen Lassen um Frischluft zu bekommen.
Das gehört sofort geändert Der Gestank im Zimmer

- Michael (6/5): Best prijzig voor een erg kleine kamer. - Locatie is top Erg kleine kamer.
- David (5/5): Good location, kind staff, small rooms, moldy air - Great location, kind staff! I found my room to be very quiet, not being able to hear outside traffic or neighboring rooms. The room was small, and because I had booked the windowless room, upon seeing the room, I decided to upgrade to one with windows, which is recommended! It gives the room more space and life. My wife and I had trouble breathing as we slept, we suspect it's due to the dusty AC or mold in the room (which I guess is not too uncommon in typical humid Singaporean rooms.

- Guohe (7/5): if you don' mind living in a tiny room with no window, that might be your choice - Excellent location, lots of stores selling food, drink and various goods. It was close to Metro and many buses. The room was very small, no desk for using a notebook.

Harbour bay op wandelafstand Kamer was iets aan de kleine kant maar je bent toch voornamelijk in de stad
- Emma (7/5): -
- Spanninga (8/5): -
- Daniel (8/5): - Great location and fine for the price.
- Daniel (7/5): - Très bien placé à côté du métro
- 正則 (9/5): 快適 - 従業員の対応は良かった。 特にありません。
- MARTIN (7/5): - l'emplacement est top. chinatown le métro central market. l'hôtel est vieillissant mais entretenu. il aurait besoin de se refaire une beauté.
- Siddharth (3/5): Location is the only plus, rooms are extremely tiny - Location is excellent as hotel is in the heart chinatown providing excellent public transport connectivity Rooms were abysmal, like really really tiny. Even entering the room was difficult while luggage was kept in the rooms, minimal ventilation & the AC had a problem of water trickling.
- Malathi (10/5): Good - Closer to food court Closest to everywhere
- Sandy (10/5): - 交通便利
- Paweł (7/5): Ok - Bardzo dobra lokalizacja, czysto, cicha klimatyzacja Bardzo mały pokój, ledwie pomiescilisny się z dwoma plecakami, drzwi przepuszczają dźwięk, słychać wszystko z korytarza.
- Kevin (5/5): We moved room to a slightly bigger one. Still only just able to get two small suitcases open. Unfortunately this room ha - Location was good. Staff very friendly and helpful The room was so small that we couldn’t open our suitcase anywhere except on the bed.
- Maria (9/5): -
- J.L. Prasanna (3/5): Had a bad experience for two nights stay - Location Toilet was smelly. Room space was not enough. It was no icy even in the middle of the night
- Richard (10/5): -
- Raj Kumar (8/5): Simply I can say this is perfect hotel for a short and simple stay - Location was perfect, as it was in the centre and front of the main street, which was visible from everywhere.
The room was cozy and compact, and the bed was comfortable, according to room size. Since the area is very compact... it was enough too I could expect a bit of new amenities and a bit bigger room where we could move easily. On the other hand, this place has very limited areas, which is why they have limited size.
- Paul (8/5): A fair price hotel in the heart of Chinatown - The location was excellent No complaints it’s Singapore and expensive
- Thanyaphisith (5/5): - Room is too small
- Ladislav (8/5): -
- Kazi (6/5): -
- vendula (4/5): - the location was great! It is just across the street from the BTS station! The room was very stuffy and small.. not really clean, there was also a hint of mold on the window, which was not able to open.. but it is maybe usuall in Singapur..
- Brendan (4/5): Better than sleeping on the streets - Location and staff Small, depressing, dusty
- lajpat kumar (1/5): The room is very small, the bed sheets were not changed, and no water bottles were provided. I am very disappointed with - It is in center location The room looked good in the pictures when I booked, but when I entered, it felt very small and uncomfortable. I am disappointed because this is not what I expected when selecting this hotel.

- Andrew (7/5): -
- GeokLan (6/5): Ok to stay but not in the room to enjoy - It's at the center of many things The smell of the pipe in the toilet. It's very bad and unpleasant. The room is extremely small, no place to put luggage. Coz there's no wardrobe. Everything is either put at the head of the bed or at the super small table.
- Jasmina Mima (7/5): Great location for exploring - Location is excellent. Size of the room. Noise from the road. Windows that cant be opened.
- Aaron (8/5): Good For Stay Before Cruise - It was easy to go to the Marina Cruise Port via MRT. There's an MRT Station which is located just opposite the hotel.
- Jolanta (10/5): - Personal.Lage.Sauberkeit. Zimmer ohne Fenster aber das haben wir gewusst
- Borg (8/5): Överlag bra boende, lite dyrt men funkar - Trevlig personal, bra läge, nära till tunnelbana och att gå runt i china town Inte så noggrant städat, hårstrån lite överallt :(
- ABRAHAM (10/5): 我喜歡這間地理位置佳的古典老旅館。價位若依照設備及清潔度,稍高了些、但我還是愛這間旅館、這是我第二次住、以後來新加坡我還會來住。 - 櫃檯服務員 浴室門邊內牆壁,肥皂都乾成一片粉了、都未清洗、只換宋單、未擦拭那麽好的古典家俱、置電視機的老櫃子𥚃外、舊不怕、但要每天擦拭灰塵。please

- Zeynep (8/5): -
- YUNG CHIN (7/5): - 都好 房间太小 ,但是理解新加坡地理比较小,是接受的 。 同时因为政府规定必须封好窗口不能打开,是有点遗憾。 我们明白这不是酒店问题 。 纯粹只是一点点遗憾
- Rosemary (6/5): -
- Shimara (10/5): Perfect location and kind staff - Staff, service, location and size of room was perfect. The staff were professional but also kind. Will definitely stay there again. If I have to say something. The shower is right next to the toilet so the entire floor and toilet is covered in water if you have a shower. A mini fridge would be a bonus. These are minor things though.

- Miah (10/5): -
- ashok (7/5): -
- jhalme (3/5): You get what you pay - Location almost perfect. It is a really small and outdated room. You have a toilet that has a shower inside of it. It is also really noisy during the nigths. Every person that is walking in the corridor you will hear it.
- Michaela (7/5): Es hat uns gut gefallen ! - Zentral gelegen !! Sehr kleines Zimmer !
- Florencia (7/5): -
- Jacqueline Aparecida (8/5): -
- Krzysztof (6/5): - Maĺo programow w TV
Mały metraż pokoju
- PITER (10/5): -
- Jacqueline Aparecida (8/5): Excellent value for money - The location is excellent; you just have to cross the street to get to the subway. You can walk to Chinatown, and there are several food options right in front of the hotel. Having a coffee machine in the room was a big help. The reception was great, they let me check in early and stored my luggage at checkout. The room and bathroom are tiny, but I spent the whole day out of the hotel, so it wasn't a problem. I already knew the room was small, so it wasn't an issue for me.
- Maira (9/5): - Расположение, остановились б еще раз. В целом отлично, персонал 👍🏻 Фен не работал и завтрака не было

- yu (8/5): - 位置超赞,出行方便。周边餐饮丰富。 有些住客素质低下,半夜三更醉酒后大声喧哗,酒店处理不及时。
- Ramya (7/5): Stayed 3 days, rate fluctuate a lot - Lication A sound from other room
- Yap (8/5): -
- david (6/5): Hotel location is in the heart of China town - the location is the main selling point .Right next to the MRT and plenty of places to eat and shop .Everything is available locally.Bathroom is adequate with an excellent shower.Reception staff are very helpful and polite.
Based on Singapore hotel prices it is value for money. Room is tiny and you could barely swing a cat.No small fridge as found in other 81 hotels and little room to move as you get through the door.Tea and coffee is an all in one mix sachets so if you do not want sugar -tough!
- Beata (10/5): Singapur rewelacja po raz trzeci i mam nadzieje , ze jeszcze beda miała okazję na kolejne przyloty - Lokalizacja super,blisko do food court roznego rodzaju, stacji metra , przystankow autobusowych. Na pieszo do Gardens by The Bay pół godzinki.
Personel bardzo miły i pomocny
Mam nadzieję, ze wrócę do Singapuru i do tego hotelu Brak szafy/ półek przy dłuższym pobycie.
- Darcey (8/5): - Location is EXCELLENT. The staff are so kind, everything was perfectly clean and check in and out was extremely simple. Room was very small. Manageable for a few nights, would’ve been harder for any longer. Also some very outdated features
