Quality Budget hotels are thin on the ground in singapore, or so i thought.

No hot water, no movie channel...although published ! No sorry from staff. Cockroaches in the room. Expect day and allnight some horny noises ! Location: REDLIGHT district!

Tube station is approx. 10 minute walk away. Rate... more

At first, we were surprise to find the lobby clean and presentable considering the district it... more

I and my family of 6 with 3 special friends stayed in Hotel 81 Geylang at Lorong 16 from 28 Jan. to 02 Feb. 2007 when I celebrated my 60th birthday.
