- GODs Creation (8/5): - It a hotel near my home. And a convenient booking through Booking App. Just some minor things, like there's no holder for the shower hose. And the water flow wasn't the good either. Plumbing work definitely has to be done.

- rolando (9/5): -
- Ruth (10/5): - For me the bed was a little firm but otherwise it was a really good last minute option
- Lupe (7/5): Bad value money - The room has air conditioning and there's a 7/11 nearby. A 15-minute walk from the Kova Hub bus station. It has a small fridge.
The staff is friendly. Expensive for what it offers.
Small room and tiny bathroom.
- MOHD FILZA IKMAL (3/5): -
- Shareef (3/5): I wouldn't recommend it to anyone. - The convenience of having a food shop just beside the property. It really needs to do something about cleanliness and outlook of the hotel.

- Almamun (1/5): Bad -

- Alvina (1/5): Bad - Room smell.. The room smells of drainage... bedsheet smells damp
- vincent (8/5): - Very helpful staff, clean and tidy, good location.
Near Kovan Hub Bus terminal
- Abdelkdem (5/5): Not good - The room toooo much small, the second important thing I paid to room with window, but the window was closed that is means useless window. Second thing we request to clean room but the cleaner didn’t clean my room as well.
- Thar583 (10/5): Exceptional -
- Tan (5/5): No enough parking space for car and no breakfast to eat - No parking space for my car Lifts breakdown cannot go basement carpark

- Ashik (9/5): Superb -
- Lucas (10/5): Exceptional -
- Randy (8/5): - Accessible for bus and near to NEX mall. They have a good and nice staff
- Pulakesh (8/5): - Good reception and great staff. Worth the money in an expensive place like Singapore. However, it is an older property, somewhat comparable to motels in the US.
- April (5/5): I will never stay in this property again unless it is renovated. - Nothing. The entire property needs renovation. Bathroom is very tiny; has no decent shower, everything will get wet when you take a shower as the telephone shower, which also functions as a bidet, is just beside the toilet bowl; It gets very noisy even at night; The floors reeks of cigarette smell; Elevator is so dated. You cannot even see which floor you’re in unless the door opens and you peek outside.
- Neo (6/5): - Need to have more air filtering and clean up the place
- Brochard (6/5): I obviously don’t recommend if you have children or if you are planning on spending some time at the hotel. - We’ve been here (couple) for 3 nights because it was very cheap. Of course it’s ok for a few days but not more. Very noisy, let’s say the walls are very thin… the exterior isn’t very nice and it looks really « cheap » and old. But it’s what you get for the price I guess …
- Liew (6/5): Pleasant - Location is accessible to lots of places. The room is quite old. Sheets are a bit dirty. Shower and toilet are in the same cubicle so the toilet is always wet after shower.
- Ekaterina (5/5): Overpriced for what it gives you - Location was good for us, 24 hour reception Small bathroom, with shower head right next to the toilet, no shower gel or shampoo is provided, just tooth brushes. Everything looked kinda old
- Jun (5/5): Booked the room for others but unable to check-in. - Spacious room I booked the rooms for my relatives and indicated that the rooms were booked for someone else (with the name of the persons occupying the rooms) in the booking confirmation. I did not need a room as I live in Singapore.
Despite me physically heading down to make cash payment a few days prior to the booking date and informing them of the names of the people checking in, when my relatives arrived, the front desk insisted on my being physically present and, when I was unable to be there physically, they had to see a photo of front and back of my IC. Is it even legal to get my IC details if I am not checking in?
- Elizabeth (10/5): - Convenience in parking
- Li Fang (4/5): - Durian stall at next door, smell flew into lobby and lift.
- Bin (5/5): Passable -
- Verified traveler (6/5): - Acceptable comfort for a budget hotel. Cockroach hole near the mini fridge. Worker still came to enter and clean the room eventhough a 'do not disturb' sign was clearly hanged at the door.
- Chelliah (10/5): niceHotel - It was very close to the all of the needs. N\A
- Myat (7/5): Good -
- Evgeniya (2/5): Very poor -
- Mavs (5/5): Payment changes from online booking to the actual payment at the front desk - The facility/place is good I booked online for like around 570 SG dollars, but upon payment in the front desk, it went up to around 680 SG dollars.
- Armando (10/5): Exceptional -
- Shu (1/5): Bad - Room cleaning poor.
Floor is dirty.
- Ru Yi Veron (6/5): - I mean what can you expect from a budget hotel? At least there's bottled water, dental set and towels provided.
- Claudia (7/5): Staff very helpful. - Close to neighborhood where we wanted to be Room too small. Wet shower difficult to use without water being tracked onto hallway.
