Anita's Airbnb offers a different experience of Singapore than the usual, anonymous high rise hotel. The Airbnb is a real house in a small street near the Novena MRT stop. I had a large, high-ceilinged room on the top floor with a roomy private bathroom and a small balcony (where I did quite a bit of reading). The beds are very comfortable. I don't use airco, but it works just fine. What makes the experience special is that an excellent breakfast is served every morning. This is done by Malu, the maid. Chatting with Malu, Anita and David (the owners) or some of the guests while sipping my coffee made me feel that I was staying with friends. Mali and Anita are very helpful and forthcoming if you have any requests. (One morning, while I was having breakfast, Malu and Anita pointed out that my shirt was wrinkled and said that I couldn't present my paper at the conference that was attending this way. Malu ironed it on the spot.) Everyone was very friendly and the communication with Anita was easy and fast. The Airbnb is a 5 minute walk from the Novena MRT station, which connects you to almost every destination within Singapore. There are some nice restaurants in the Novena area, but the wonderful MRT system (as a daily user of the London Underground I was in commuter heaven) brings you anywhere within 15 minutes. If I may suggest one point of improvement it would be stronger wifi. As an academic I work everywhere. I could do my email, but opening websites was very slow. In sum: I recommend Anita's Airbnb without reservation
