Check-in and check-out were quick and hassle-free. It's about a 15-minute walk to the nearest MRT station and only a few blocks from bus stops, a convenience store, and a supermarket. The area has plenty of eateries nearby, which is convenient. The room is fine for one or two light travelers, but it feels cramped if you have multiple suitcases or just like a bit more space to move around. Aside from some air-conditioning noise and a faint sound of running water in the bathroom, the room was surprisingly quiet. Housekeeping kept everything clean throughout our stay, so we were able to rest well. Our room had a window, which we liked for the natural morning sunlight. The only small drawback was the curtains don’t meet fully in the middle and leave gaps on the sides, so light seeps in and privacy isn’t 100% (especially at night when the room is lit). There was no refrigerator or slippers in the room (we forgot to ask if slippers are available upon request). On the plus side, the hot shower worked perfectly, the bathroom had a bidet, Wi-Fi was reliable, and there were a few clothes hangers. One final note though: booking a taxi via app can be tricky in this area, so I recommend calling one in advance, especially if you’re heading to the airport with a child or lots of luggage. Using ride-hailing apps is usually easier if you're in a rush (look for the family-friendly option upon booking). For a 2-star hotel, it felt like it offered great value for money.

Everything great, kindness of the staff and room is basic but good, the bed is a bit short for tall people.
