Room with private bathroom was huge and bed was super comfortable. Bathroom was also huge and bright. I like the walk-in wardrobe which allows me to store my clothes and stuff for the week I was there. Only 3 rooms in this shophouse, which makes it a nice private place to stay. The ground shared space provided the necessary amenities like fridge and kettle and washing machine and dryer. A stone´s throw away from Kimberly Street night market. Host was constantly checking on me every day, and is always responsive to my text as well.

Very clean, the bed was comfortable and the wifi worked great for work. There is a water filter and small fridge in the kitchen area. The staff was quite friendly and we're kind enough to allow me to check out late so I didn't have to carry my bags around before I could check into my next stay. The location is fantastic with tons of restaurants and shops nearby. Very walkable area of Georgetown.
