The general area in Geylang has gone further down-market in the last couple of years. While still the least expensive I will look elsewhere in the future. The Fragrance chain provides clean basic rooms which are adequate for sleeping and have no issues using the chain in the future.

It was quite cheap for Singapore , there are many good inexpensive local eating places in the area. Close to buses, but a 10 minute walk from tube station. A taxi into downtown Singapore is about $10 which is a reasonable cost.It is in the red light area. Internet charges are expensive , was told when i bought 2 hours ( $5.00 ) that i had to use it within 24 hours ,not true it expired at midnight that day and they would not refund or extend even although i had not used it. Some of the staff are a bit surly. Windows in the rooms are screwed shut .There are no fridges in rooms (even the De luxe rooms ) The rooms are very small. You get two sachets of coffee a day (for two people ) and two 250 ml of water thats your lot . I got 2 early morning 4.30am calls that i didn't organise but the one i needed on the morning i flew out never happened

The hotel met all of my expectations which was based mainly on what was advertised at booking.com. The hotel was very clean and comfortable and ideal for people travelling with kids. The rooms were priced reasonably for its location. The staff were also friendly. And although our booking was made online we did not encounter any problem when we got to the hotel. It was in fact, a hassle-free experience.

I had booked a family room for three people. However when i arrived i was told that this was not available and that they would 'upgrade' us by giving us two twin rooms for the same price. They did not inform us earlier about the unavailability of the room. As I wanted my family to be in one room, I told them I would have no choice but to take the twin room and try to fit all of us in. However the staff told us that we had to pay for two twin rooms even though we only wanted to use one room. They said it the hotel's policy and if we did not pay for this, the hotel staff would have to bear the cost. I find this totally unacceptable and was very upset that my holiday plans were spoiled.
