Perfect weekend stay with Elizabeth and she was so friendly and warm - made sure I was OK when she saw my lights switched on late into the night/early morning on day 1 (I was working!). She even had me ask the cab driver to call her just so she could give him directions to her place and met me at the house (she had originally told me that she may be in a meeting at my arrival). You'll do alright staying with Elizabeth.

Her place is about a 10-minute walk to the Newton MRT and Newton is just 1 stop away from Somerset/Orchard - bingo, right smack of Singapore's shopping and restaurant route. With Singapore's MRT connectivity, you can get about to anywhere you want. Also you can come back at anytime since she'll give you a set of keys. A set of maps are provided but since I'm pretty familiar with Singapore, I didn't need them.

I had the room at the back of the house and it was "large" enough for 2 pax; the air conditioning and fan worked well and there are 2 standing lamps by the side of the bed. This is probably the low point of the room - I would have preferred a brighter room, perhaps another lamp near the dressing table. Its a shared shower and the heater (if you need it) worked fine; also she allows you to feel free to use the kitchen as well as make your own coffee./tea etc.
