What's not readily apparent from the listing is that this is a room (with your own self-contained bathroom) that has its own entrance at the back of a house in a rather nice area of Singapore - i.e. most people don't get to live in as nice a place as this!

Just outside the room is an semi-open air kitchen, and the close-by bedroom of the housekeeper, who is always happy to help out. But one can cook, keep stuff in the fridge and do washing independently if one wants.

The layout of the room was slightly different too : There was a full double bed set up for us, as well as an extra mattress for our toddler. That, coupled with the best WiFi we had experienced in Singapore, made our stay a real pleasure.
