It's a cheap hotel so I wasn't expecting much. The only problem we had was when we complained of cigarette smoke smell in our room They didn't move us to a different room, instead they sent a guy to spray the vents with air freshener. The smoke smell lingered for 1 whole day.

The room is clean, the hotel is nice, helpful staff, free bathroom stuff and coffee (amazing coffee) etc, 10 min walk to the major train station. Bedding is hard and sparse, walls are thin, no free WIFI. Can't say we really noticed much "red light" activity. For the cheapest accomdation in Singapore I was expecting a lot worse so overall...

I spent two days in May with my son This hotel is located in Geylang, at the end of the red light district. I didn't see anything shady in or outside the hotel, but if you walk at night in the area, you'll see some activity. No big deal, nobody bother us. It is a 7-10 minute walk to the... More

Located at Geylang area. Walking distance 10mins from Kallang MRT station. It's a small budget hotel but it's clean. Flat TV screen, shower bath. The bed not really comfortable but it's quite OK. Small convenient shops just around the corner but if you want to find other food variety than Chinese's food, need to walk a bit from this area.... More

We stayed at the fragrance hotel for 3 nights. Location: Geylang district is a little further north from the main tourist areas and sites, so it will take a little longer to get into the city area. Nearby are a lot of chinese restaurants as well as karaoke bars in the area, like Chinatown but cheaper and less touristy. These... More

Policy in the group appears to have changed (I've stayed at a couple of their other hotels in Singapore) - now you can't get into your room until 15.00 (I arrived on a 07.00 flight). although there are fairly basic luggage storage facilities there's nowhere really where you can 'change and freshen up'. The rooms are compact but they're clean... More

Plus points are the close proximity to the Kallang MRT station. Nice, clean rooms with a 32' LCD TV. Low cost compared other hotels. Only down point is again the location where does look a bit 'unclean' particually in the evenings on the way to the hotel from the MRT

The building is old and our room was small, bathroom is ok for us. it is good for budget traveler or transit. The third night we move to the one at Bugis which is newer and better. We didn't... More

The hotel had a very affordable rate and was a 10-minute walk from Kallang MRT station. Group desk transfer from Changi Airport was a reasonable Sgd 9/person. When my husband and I got there, the first room assigned to us was dirty, but the front desk promptly assigned us to another room when we raised it to his attention. The... More

I booked a room thru agoda.com which cost me around 1500 THB per night but this rate is exclusive of breakfast. Stayed there for 3 nights in April 2012,I found that this hotel is rather good for budget traveller. If you don't spend your whole day at the hotel just for your whink of sleep then this hotel is your... More
