    The WiFi worked, but I used the lobby code instead of the room password. Seemed to work better.

    We liked the space in the apartment. The towels were changed daily and the rooms cleaned. The location was very central, with easy access to the MRT via Bencoolen or Bras Basah. We were just around the corner from Raffles and we could walk our catch the MRT to all the attractions like Marina Bay Sands and Gardens by the Bay. We'd recommend Somerset and would stay there again. I loved the rooftop pool. Hardly anyone used it so I was usually up there with only one or two other people and the friendly crows!

    The apartment is a bit older than the pictures show. Not a deal breaker. We also received old/ripped towels on a couple of occasions.

    Location was fantastic and really close to key sites, buses and trains. The room was a great size for 4 adults and two young kids.

    Well-located apartments with everything you need. We are a family of 3 (2 adults, 1 2yo child) and stayed in the 1 bedroom apartment. The space was comfortable with a practical layout and had a bath for kids. It was walking distance to a number of MRT stations, shops and restaurants. We would stay again next time!

    The reception is slow and the restaurant does not have much options for Indian food.

    The rooms were very nice and big compared to other hotels in Singapore and the location is also very good.

    Property is a bit aged and the washrooms and pool are seems like that

    Stayed in this hotel for 20 days for an assignment. The rooms are quite spacious. They have 1 BHK apartments with a small kitchenette and basic utensils and cutlery. Can’t cook much but food for basic bread toast, bowl meals. The service is good and housekeeping cleans the utensils everyday except Sunday. The roof top pool offers great view and also a small gym with basic machines and weights. There is a small kids play area as well. They have a laundromat washer and dryer but it costs around S$18 for one round. The best part of this hotel is the location, multiple bus stops, two MRT stations (Downtown Line Bencoolen and Circle Line Bras Basah) and 10 min walking distance from Singapore National Museum and Fort Canning Park. The property is a little aged and that is visible in the room and all facilities. The breakfast is very limited and basic. You can choose to skip breakfast at hotel and eat outside at nearby bakeries. Overall a decent play to stay if you are looking for longer stay in spacious rooms with basic kitchen facilities.

    Just that there is no breakfast provided. However, there is a little restaurant right by the entrance which we didn’t try but looked good. We were happy to buy a few breakfast essentials from a local shop and used our kitchen facilities.

    Excellent location - directly opposite the MRT for the easiest access to the rest of Singapore. Spacious apartment for the five of us. Additional bed request was easily arranged. Great views from the roof top pool.
