The Snooze Hotel @Marine Parade

Sadly did not enjoy my stay here and was unable to sleep much despite my flight arriving at 1am. Room was constantly bright through a frosted window into a different room that shined through the bathroom and I couldn’t cover. Walls are very thin so you hear everything: people talking in the hallway, people talking in their rooms, people opening their bathroom door, etc If you don’t mind all of this then it’s an ok deal. But pack earplugs and an eye-mask.

Spend a bit time looking for the location. Surrounding easy to get food. No hair dryer inbthr room

The room was tiny with no windows, which we knew and accepted. The problem was it was dirty. Mould was everywhere, in the shower, around the basin, and along the wall near the bed. There had been noises in the corridor throughout the night. Noises that sounded like mopping or clicking. The sheets didn't feel freshly washed. Not worth the $500+ Singapore dollars we paid.

Quaint old-quaint old school set up, sprawling on the second floor of a traditional shop house corner very close to an MRT station at least just a few minutes walk and also a taste of the Singapore heartland with an HDB estate nearby with great food in the market there. Although it’s a little removed from the main city action, you are actually quite close to everything in Singapore. It’s just a question of getting on the train or the right bus and there are plenty of opportunities around here to do that. The hotel staff were friendly and helpful. The shower was maybe a bit small and comparison to the size of the room And the TV was just Singapore‘s very lousy terrestrial stuff but if you can get it at a good price this is a good choice that did seem to be a few short term visitors for just a few hours, but maybe they were in transit. It certainly is a contrast to the more CD area of Gaylan where you will find other hotels around this price range, but not with such a quaint old ambience. Oh yes, and there’s a quaint again that word little Terrace at the back which could be a great place to have a takeout or to chill with other guests or friends although primarily I guess it’s a smoking area.

We booked this place on last minute, location not too far from airport (take bus no 36 only) then wall for 10 minutes. We booked double room with windows, room really small. Smooth check in and check out. The first time we open the room door, there’s a strong body odour in the room (really bad) then we spray it with our perfume, open the window turn on AC then it’s better. The toilet wall so dirty, mold in the shower and wastafel basin area. No hairdryer, no small towels, toothbrush quality is bad and really small toothpaste. So noisy during the day and night. Wifi soooo bad!!! Cant connect inside the room, you need to go outside the door room (in the hallway) nor stand beside the room door (when inside the room)
