Even though it was budget hotel and situated at red light distict. Overall it was good place to stay. The room was clean, tidy with moderate size of family room. Staff are very helpful and there's 1 convenient store within 5 min walk. Surely will stay here again.

We arrived at around 4am and one of the two rooms we booked is still not available due to air-conditioning unit problems. We still waited in the other room for roughly 20 minutes to get the other room done. The room provided to us has like 28 degree Celsius maximum coolness plus it's an inner unit so we got no... More

Well, the place is quite cozy but it's already a good place to stay in just in case you're in a tight budget for SG. It's clean and it has got good airconditioning and hot water! Overall, it was a pleasant stay since we're not always in the hotel and my wife and I are just here to roam SG.

I have been luck to stay in some brilliant hotels - this is not one of them. This hotel is strictly for the extreme budget conscious traveller. There were cockroaches in one guys bed and on our floor, coffee cups, etc. One guy peeled back his sheets to find the bottom sheet covered 70% of his bed and a roach... More

Normal service in a no good area. 10 minutes walking from the nearest underground station, in Geylang area, quite far from center. A lot of people complain about the prostitution but, in my opinion, they are so respectful with the people. No problem during our time in Singapore. However, no good place for family with children.

It was very difficult to find a cheap hotel room in Singapore. We paid for standard room 48 €/ per night. The location was bad because there was lot of men just hanging around on the streets and the hotel area was red district area. The room was a normal standard room size and it was clean. There was free... More

Hotel 81 Orchid, well no big name name to pin hopes on, but still managed to provide us a decent stay. The staff was good and helpful. Rooms are very small and suffocating, but as I said it is a budget-friendly hotel and my advice is to accept it that way and not expect big in return. Talking about the... More

Arriving early in the morning having reserved online, we were surprised to learn from our cab driver that we were in the Red Light District of Singapore, and the "Butterflies" as he called them would come out at night. A little surprising, but we should have probably done a little more research before arriving. When we arrived, as Check-in wasn't... More

Hotel facilities are: wifi internet in room, tea and coffe maker, small bathroom with shower, 2 unit LCD TV for Family Room. Located in a "red" area, but it is okay if you just want to take a rest. It is reachable by bus... More

I stayed for 2 nights. This hotel is good if you dont mind the fire alarm suddenly will wake you up in the late night. There are no fire around though... The room is a bit small especially the washroom. However, this is a nice budget hotel.
