You need to deposit 100sgd or 4000php upon check-in, to be claimed upon check-out. You can request for late check-out until 12nn free-of-charge, just inform them. Daily free bottled water per pax, tea, and sugar. You can request for housekeeping daily, w free toiletries. Room offers mini ref, electric kettle, flat iron & ironing board, tv, wifi, and type-c outlets. Free use of washer and dryer, just bring your own detergent. Free use of microwave. The location is very convenient, near bugis street, bugis mrt stn., chinatown, etc. The only problem we encounter, there's only one key card per room. If one needs to go down, the rest will be forced to go down since the room power and elevator will only work thru key cards. Overall, we had a nice and relaxing stay. Highly recommended 🫰🏻

Finally got to see Saint Peter's Square in front of the Basilica. It was exactly as I'd seen on the news. It was so huge, with chairs lined up for the masses.
