We loved staying at Sk's place, it was clean, well decorated, and had everything we needed. The location was awesome, central to train and lots of food. Close proximity to popular hot spots like Haji Lane, and Bugis Junction or just a 10-15 minute drive to other major sights. We were able to walk to some cool places near the apartment, we especially liked Tolido Cafe which was just across the road. Also, there's a 24 hour fruit stall and juice bar on the corner which we enjoyed daily with great selections and cheap prices. There's even a 7-11 and ATMS right outside the door.
In addition to the neighborhood, Sk's place was well stocked with everything one would need on vacation. His kitchen had all the utensils, coffee, and tea at your disposal. He also provides a washing machine and soap for doing your laundry, toiletries, chargers and power banks in case you forget yours. The bookshelf is also lined with brochures for most of the city's attractions as well as our favorite part of the apartment, The World of Selfies. A corkboard world map with polaroids from all of his guests around the world. We added our selfie to the wall and loved having that extra touch that made the visit very personal. We're even thinking of stealing the idea for our own home, thanks Sk!
Sk was very communicative throughout the whole booking process, and we were able to have some meaningful conversations with him. He's got a great personality with an eye for art and design, and that definitely comes through in his beautiful home. My husband was also very impressed with his door lock system, which is completely controllable by an app on your smart phone. However, I am no techie so avoided using it altogether!
On our last day, we did run into a little hiccup. Our master bathroom had a little bit of flooding, so showering was a bit chaotic. We notified Sk immediately and he was apologetic as well as efficient in tending to our needs. It did not cause any issues with our stay, just a little wet and inconvenient. (Note: He's now updated us that the plumbing is being taken care of.) Overall, our stay was pleasant, and exactly what we needed. Comfort, affordability, and location, Sk's place has it all! We highly recommend it.
