Mold around the soap dispenser needs a deep clean .

Great location

My sensitive nose picked up a certain smell of the room, maybe from the aircon.

Extremely large room, swimming pool and great eating & shopping possibilities nearby

The beds were super hard, more pillows required. It is an old hotel but you get what you pay for in Singapore.

That it was not in the heart of town, beautiful food all around the hotel that was cheap. Was very convenient to all public transport. We only used it as a base for a quick trip. The staff were more than happy to store luggage and arrange taxi to airport.

Worn out facilities, especially in the bathroom, and door of the room had a large gap where the wood looked damaged from water. No safes in rooms.

Had a pool, washing machine, close to bus stop, comfortable beds, great sheet pressure and heat.

It was just unlucky but the first room we got short circuited whilst we were at the pool, came back to a dark room and a pooling AC. Front desk came over to sort out the circuit breaker but kindly transferred us to a new room at the end of the corridor with a better AC actually. TV didn't work properly, remote wasn't functional but we had our laptops with us so it's OK. Could have done with a wee more toiletries and bartop bits...? And some flowers in the room might brighten it up, otherwise nostalgic. Not much to dislike.

It was in the heart of Joo Chiat so it had lots of places to get food, especially the 24hr one downstairs. There was a Cheers right outside. It was hard to miss the hotel, right next to Darul Arqam and Joo Chiat Complex. Straightforward checking in, got old school keys and a card to switch the room on which we liked. Pool was huge. Room was basic and nostalgic, bed, dresser, wardrobe, little kitchenette, bathroom had a bathtub and bidet. Simple straightforward hotel. We needed a good night's sleep and we got it. Wifi is super strong too. Used it to binge Netflix all night. Left a piece of clothing by accident, they already have it waiting for us at Lost & Found (coming soon).

Airconditioner is not cold enough despite having the settings to the lowest temperature and highest fan. Pillows are thin and not comfortable enough.

Location is close to ample choices of halal eateries. And is a walking distance to an MRT Station.

Lacks many important things: - no trash bin in the toilet bathroom - no hairdryer - no smart tv or cable tv - no slippers - no free bottled water - no other mirror aside from the one inside the toilet bathroom and the one at the desk The front desk staff doesn't greet guests and did NOT even say thank you when we checked out and left the hotel. Not good.

Close to MRT and a lot of food centers, convenience store, and establishments are walking distance

Room was ok but needed urgent upgrade shower especially

Swimming pool, great staff very friendly and helpful, good location easy to get about with MRT and buses

We hung the “make up room sign” on the door but our room was not cleaned up. The wooden floor on the room looks old, might be because they removed the old carpet.

The hotel has the pool at level 3 with continuous flow of water to make sure it is not stagnant. The room is big as compared to other Hotel 81 branches. The toilet is also big and has a bidet. The staff allowed us to check in early. The lobby looks classy. There are 2 lifts available in the hotel. The hotel is just 5 minutes walk from the bus stop. There is a lot of eatery just outside the hotel.

Room furnishing was a bit old. no 24 hr store for snack buying late night

Room was big and comfortable. Location was ok, local transport means were near

The bathrooms are very shabby and in need of major refurbishment

The pool was great and the staff helpful. It was some way out of town but with fantastic eateries right outside that we'd never otherwise have found.

Very dated advertised as newly renovated, but it's only the front desk area that has been refurbished. The rooms are very worn, paint bubbling from bathroom ceilings and pillows very lumpy. Staff did their job, but nothing more than the minimum effort with everything.

Lots of food options and taxi rank close by
