First of all, for the price and the size of the room, it is extremely worth the price.
Location is near shopping Malls and 10-15mins away from MRT station.
Receptionists are basically friendly and speaks both English and Mandarin.
Advanced booking of taxi can be done over the counter.
However, I am not sure about the cleanliness. My worn indoor slippers were never changed. There were signs of forgetfulness like omitting to wash cups or forgot to change toilet floor maps etc.
There are varying standards of service. While Receptionists were friendly, the IT Technicians were not so technical savvy and good at problem solving. While I could not connect to my internet, the technician changed wiring and router and it still didn’t work. In the end, he told me no solution and seems to want me to take the issue in my stride, until I prompt him for a second opinion and the next day another technician
told me that my access to overseas websites is blocked. While I ask the housekeeper on how to on the heater, she looked very unfriendly. I felt my room was without aircon for days although I didn’t mind too much since it is cold these few days.
I didn’t like the shopping around me. All expensive stuff and the mrt station is still quite a walk away. But the location of the metro station 新街口 is still convenient to places of interest such as Confucius temple.
The rating of this hotel would be subjective, depending on one’s preferences and priorities.
