The room was neat and basic with no frills, but roomy and functional. Certain furnishing and fixtures were rather aged and not in tip-top condition (visible defects such as cracks in the bath tub), but nothing major and not a cause for complaint. However, the soundproofing of the room wasn't good-could rather easily hear the noises from the neighboring room. A major plus of this hotel is that it offers complimentary parking in its small private car park. The location is also almost unparalleled from a convenience/sightseeing/shopping perspective. An MRT station is at its doorstep and Dhoby Ghaut and Bugis are just a short distance away.

The counter staffs were helpful, polite and great. Checking in was smooth and easy. Overall, was good except for the toilet which is a bit out dated. The location was very near MRT and it was walking distance to F&B and shops. It was an awesome staycation. Highly recommended.

The distance from the hotel to the MRT station is about 200-300 meters from the hotel, there is a bus stop across from the hotel. There is a mosque next to the hotel. Breakfast is quite good, the hotel staff in the morning are very helpful. However, the hotel staff at night seemed a bit indifferent when asked for help via telephone, finally when approached at the receptionist desk they were helped to the maximum. Overall the hotel is comfortable, kids and adult friendly because I went there with my mother and she was happy.

Better to tell the hotel what time you will check in, because I tried to check in at 8 PM and no one was at the front desk. Waited for 30 minutes. The room is okay, there is a bathtub. The food was no more at 9:30, and they didn't provide a refill. Better to get breakfast early. If you order an online driver, wait at the back door point, not in front of the hotel.

The distance is very convenient to go anywhere, the check-in and check-out process is fast. Unfortunately, we got a room with a leaking AC, dripping all night, too lazy to move rooms, the place to refill fresh water is a bit difficult, we have to go to the 2nd floor where the elevator is broken. Also, it seems a bit stingy with the breakfast menu, the variety and quantity are very limited.

We had a wonderful stay at Bencoolen Hotel. The location is fantastic, with easy access to public transport, food options, and attractions. The staff were incredibly friendly and accommodating. One of the best things about this hotel is their thoughtful service. Even after we checked out, they allowed us to leave our luggage and even use their shower facilities before heading to the airport. This made our trip much more convenient! Highly recommend for travelers looking for a comfortable and hassle-free stay in Singapore. Will definitely come back!

The hotel is nice, close to the bus stop and MRT. The staff is also very friendly, very helpful. The standard Singapore room, which is a bit small, but enough for us. Around there are many people selling too. The food is less varied but enough for breakfast.

In Singapore, the price of 1 million and getting a small hotel is actually normal. Then the breakfast is also a bit lacking in variety and there are few seats.

1. The location is very easy to find, close to the bus stop and MRT 2. You can request a make up room every day without paying 3. The swimming pool has clear water but the bottom of the pool is dirty with lots of leftover sand and grains from repairs 4. Breakfast is very simple, sometimes you don't even get a gift, just bread 5. The FO staff are all friendly except for one woman who is a bit small, sorry, like an Indian who is very rude, unfriendly and even seems to ignore guests 6. The plugs use international 3-pin ones, so if you borrow an additional plug, you pay $10
