A Commendable Urban Stay

advantageous location easy access various dining options

I found the location quite advantageous, offering easy access to the Lavender MRT station.. This proximity greatly simplified my travels throughout the city. Across the road, a large complex provided various dining options including food stalls and cafes, and a convenient 7/11. The room provided basic comfort, an excellent choice considering the affordability.

The absence of a window in the room I occupied did present a minor drawback. I would have certainly appreciated some natural light and ventilation. Perhaps, checking room options beforehand is advisable.

great location helpful staff small room chaotic ac

The location, its super great! It is near a train station, and its so easy to navigate. The staff was great. They are very attentive to my needs.

The room, it was very small. I could not really open the suitcases easily. The ventilation was not the greatest, I found the AC control panel chaotic and difficult to use.

mrt station short walk food court extensive swimming pool long bathroom setup annoying shower head holder improper water mild warm

i found the lavender mrt station to be a short walk. a shopping mall with a food court was close by (it was located on the second floor). the rooftop swimming pool was long and clean.

the bathroom setup presented some issues. the shower head holder did not sit properly. i had to hold the shower head to avoid spraying water everywhere.
