Dans la zone des hôtels en rapport qualité prix correct vu les prix pratiqués à Singapour. Si vous prenez la chaîne d'hôtels 81, favoriser toujours les "standarts hôtels 81 premier" et mieux encore avec chambre deluxe. Restaurants partout. Metro à 15 minutes à pied

The room size is small in an old building, but it is close to the city, so it is good to access various tourist attractions. A convenience store and a 24-hour restaurant are right next door, and the hawker center is also nearby, so it's good for a meal.

No no and no

One of the worst hotels I’ve stayed in for a long time. Hotel cleanliness is non existent. Room and bathroom in particular was dirty - hair on the wall in the drains and in the sink. Very bad cleanliness. Small room. Damp smell. For the price that they charge there are much better options in this area. Don’t waste your money. This hotel needs and update asap. Value hotel better option after I changed to stay there.

Poor service

Pretty sure the person sold our room to someone else despite it already being paid for as we checked in late around midnigjt, ended up having to wait half an hour for another room.

This is an old and not very well updated hotel. Not possible to adjust the aircon temperature in the room: call reception every time you put the key in the holder, and they will change the default temp which is too cold. Woke up several times during the night due to the cold - the selected higher temperature on the room thermostat had no effect, which I only learned the next morning. No extra blanket. No fridge in the room, the shower has no curtain so all of the toilet/wash basin/bathroom gets soaked. Window cannot open for fresh air. Noisy guests. Best to avoid the place if you can.
