My hubby and I stayed in the Kubric suite for a week and we both agreed that it has been very enjoyable. It was a very pleasant experience for us to stay in this charming restored shophouse and we totally dig the decor of the room. This place is conveniently located and it's very easily accessible via public transport. For those who are keen to live away from the city center, I would definitely recommend this area. Right downstairs, there is a restaurant and bar (also owned by them) with the most wonderful food and service. There are a couple of malls nearby where you can find pretty much everything you need.
Richard was very kind to meet us up on a hot Monday afternoon to pass us the keys as the restaurant was closed on Mondays. We are also very grateful as there is a lady who comes and clean up the apt occasionally. What's better than coming back to a mess-free room?
The only downside was that the music from the bar/restaurant downstairs can be pretty audible and thus, not good for early sleepers (or those who sleeps till noon because they serve breakfast at 9am). Good thing is, the music doesn't last all night. I think it stops around midnight or earlier. My suggestion is to just hang out and enjoy a drink at the bar till its closing time. TADAHHHH! Problem solved. Then, wake up early and take a walk around the area where there are tons of old or restored shophouses, cafes and restaurants. It's a good way to observe and experience the local lifestyle in Singapore.
In conclusion, this place is highly recommended for travelers who would like to immerse themselves in the (in my opinion) most charming area of Singapore and yet not wander too far away from the city center. Love it! Will definitely be back!
