ibis budget Singapore Clarke Quay

The room was pretty basic and small, especially the bathroom. There were no slippers, toothpaste, or toothbrushes provided. The air conditioning made a strange noise. Breakfast was decent, and the front desk staff were very friendly and welcoming.

The location is excellent, very convenient for getting around, and I felt quite safe returning at night. There's also Song Fa Bak Kut Teh nearby. The room hygiene was decent, and the staff were very friendly. The front desk speaks Chinese, and they allow food deliveries to be left there. They even came up promptly to help fix the circuit breaker when it tripped in the middle of the night. However, the room facilities felt a bit basic. The water heater needed to be turned on five minutes in advance, and the hot water ran out quickly, which made showering inconvenient.

The room was quite small, but I had read reviews beforehand, so it wasn't a surprise. What was unexpected was the absence of a rinse cup, hand soap, and hand towels. Moreover, the toilet seat's soft-close mechanism was completely broken, with three out of four rubber buffers missing, leading to an unwelcome 'thud' if you weren't careful. This felt a bit out of place for a star-rated hotel. The hotel's location is excellent. Many attractions are within walking distance, and it's just a few minutes' walk from Exit A of the NE5 Clarke Quay MRT station. All the staff I encountered were very professional and welcoming. Although the breakfast selection wasn't huge, it was absolutely delicious and highly recommended.

The room was too small. The service was okay. The booking process was prompt, convenient, and quick overall, which was good.

The hotel's location is excellent, with plenty of subway stations, malls, and restaurants nearby. It's also just a 5-minute walk to Clarke Quay. However, the room size is unbelievably small; it's hard to even turn around. The facilities are subpar too – the toilet, faucets, and shower all barely work. The water heater is electric, so you can't shower for more than ten minutes before the water turns cold. Overall, the facilities would be considered on par with a 100 RMB hostel in a major Chinese city. The staff, despite not providing much service, were all very friendly and smiled a lot, especially the young lady who spoke Chinese – she was great.
