However, that is... More

Very good location, 5min walking to Dholby Ghaut MRT Interchange and Singapura Plaza. Room is clean and the rate is reasonable. We travelled 4 adults and got a family room (1double + 1 singlebed) + 1 extra bed. It cost us SGD238 (bf and GST 7% included). We will come back.
