The location was very convenient. It was close to a metro station. The pool was a welcome addition after a day of sightseeing (I really enjoyed relaxing there). The staff let me use the pool after checkout. This was a nice perk.
The gym equipment was quite limited.

Acceptable Location, but Several Downsides

early closing pool indifferent staff
The location was acceptable (near public transport).
The pool closed relatively early in the evening, so we could not use it. Upon arrival, the hotel blocked the cost of one night as a deposit on my credit card, even after complete payment. The staff seemed indifferent.

The location was great near the MRT station. I found the pool a real bonus. I could use it after checkout while waiting for my flight. Staff were helpful to me.
The shower water pressure was a bit weak. I felt the toilet facilities lacked for a high rating hotel. The amenities were very minimal as I only got a small size of shampoo conditioner and body wash.
