Great location and staff couldn't be nicer however we had a basement room without a window which knew before arriving. What we didn't know was that there was a vent in the room B04 that I can only assume went straight into a local bar. We got to enjoy karaoke one night and a very loud American the second who apparently only knew the f word. On returning to the room one day there was an overwhelming smell of cigarette smoke. I spoke to the front desk who gave us a dehumidifier which did get rid of the smell. They could not say where the smell had come from but suggested yet again maybe it was the vent. The pool and hotel facilities were great and as already stated very central to everything. 5 minute walk to Bugis underground which gave you access to China Town, little India and the marina within 15 minutes. I'm sure other rooms were fine and the general cleanliness of the hotel was excellent. Just avoid room B04!!!
