awesome chinatown stay!

mrt stationbag storagecheap breakfastunfriendly projector
The location is really convenient. It's super close to the mrt station and lots of interesting spots (loved exploring the area!). i was allowed to leave my bag after checkout, a bonus. there's a nice cafe nearby for breakfast and lunch, a definite money saver.
the projector tv wasn't very user-friendly in my room. i found navigating the apps quite difficult plus i couldn't find many channels i liked.

essential amenities were available, which i found really helpful. there was shower gel, shampoo, conditioner, and even a hair dryer. the beautiful family room provided sufficient space and was quite well kept.
