The hotel keeper asked me to go to the cafe nearby first since they don't have a room available. Rooms are really small with hardly any space to walk through. If you put your big suitcase, its hard to walk in the room. Almirah is small enough to hold only 3 hangers and bathroom is also small. During my stay I was shifted to a bigger room upon my request and in this room, plus point was that the room size was bit bigger than previous, I could free walk but it doe snot have an almirah, so you have to hang your clothes on the wall hanger.
In this room, bathroom gets even more smaller. Internet is paid for and very expensive. Only plus point is that it is walking distance to NUS and bus stop is at doorstep from where you get direct bus to Vivocity, Orchard. There are cheap restaurants and Javanese masaage parlours at walking distance did I mention hotel does not have a restaurant? Verdict: Very expensive compared to amenities. Try booking engines to book at cheaper rates.
After staying in Holiday Inn moving to Fragrance was a bit off a shock. But the rooms were clean and decent. But The rooms were extremely small and became suffocation sometimes.
The other sad part was not restaurant. But it is a very good budget hotel and you can walk to the MRT. You have to be there to witness how tiny this room actually is. Two people and you will be searching for floor space once the suitcases are put down. We had trouble opening the main door as the bags were in the way. It was hialrious. And the real fun started at night. There were so any people coming in and out using the corridor and the cleaning crews were busy changing sheets by the hour. Later did i realise couples and customers were using this place for extra curricular activities!
Location wise worked out for us as we had work with NUH. Other than that its far from anything. So if you are not a patient at NUH, or a sailor dont even think of coming here.
