would only suggest backpackers for this place not more then one or 2 nights max, not recommended for families.
overall experience was below standard.
from washroom condition to cramped space of bedroom, really could have managed in a much better way.
cleanliness was OK, could have been much better with cleaner bedsheets without stains, blankets in terrible conditions.
room standard can be improved easily but I guess no one bothers.
although we were given 7th floor, the traffic noise remains, even the lift and door noises outside the room becomes disturbing very early morning.
the caretakers hardly speak English, so gets difficult for tourists to explain anything. Alvin himself never came to meet or tried to find out if everything was OK.
overall disappointed with the services and the kind of room standard offered to us for five nights.
positives.
security of the place is good.
location is also good with MRT not too far away. about 15 mins walk.
local food and stores are also close by.
