We loved this hotel for our first visit to Singapore. We could walk to everything and spent two fun nights in Chinatown, sampling the local food and beer, both were delicious. The staff at this hotel were so friendly and helpful, the rooms were spotless, breakfast delicious and the free iceblocks a treat after a hot day of walking. We loved the traditional style area, the beautiful buildings that we could view from the cute little verandah and the incredibly hospitable Singaporean people. We would definitely stay at this great boutique hotel when we next visit Singapore.

The rooms are tiny; roughly 2.5m x 2.5m with a twin bed. When I first checked in, I thought it was ok for just one night. But in the middle of the night, I kept having trouble to sleep from the sound of AC and compressors outside. Even worse, I felt there were bed bugs making my skin itch (never had that problem with other hotels I've stayed and I travel quite often for business).

However, the staffs are very helpful especially when it comes to getting a cab for ya. Breakfast was average.

Hotel is in a good location close to buses, train station & taxis. Staff all very helpful and friendly.Very clean and tidy and good daily room service.
Room is exceptionally small not much bigger than a single garage, shower is over the toilet and hand basin is next to the double bed, fridge is the smallest ive seen, holds about 4 tins of drink. The worst thing about the hotel is the noise, we found it very hard to sleep. We booked a quiet room but on arrival were told the only rooms available were on the street front. We stayed for 3 nights for a stop over, i would not recommend any longer than 2/3 nights given size of room and noise.We chose the hotel using trip advisor based on comments and price. Accommodation in Singapore we found expensive so Hotel 1929 at under $200.00 per night for the location is good value but suggest air plugs. Approx $40.00 taxi fare to airport early morning.
