the location near the excel centre was acceptable.
The bathroom was a joke. It was just a tiny pod. it reminded me of a cheap cruise ship cabin.. seriously?!?! the room wasn't very clean. I saw some grime in the bathroom.

mediocre stay near excel
decent locationleaking kettledark room
The location was decent. It was pretty close to the excel centre, so that was handy for my event.
The room felt quite worn. the kettle leaked all over the counter when i tried to make tea. the room was also oddly dark even with all the lights on. It wasn't the most inviting space.

The AC in the room was a lifesaver. I found tea and coffee facilities available in the room to be convenient. The complimentary cookies were a lovely touch. The location was great, and transport was right on the doorstep to get into the center.
The room was not cleaned after my first night. I found the same dirty towels left every day after nights two and three. I reported it, but no apology was given to me.
