Horizon Inn

First of all, I want to make it clear, that the room itself was clean and the bed was comfortable, but those are the only positive points. The building looks shabby from the outside, the hallway, as far as we could tell from the lobby, looks very run-down. A receptionist told us not to use the stairs, even though we only wanted to go up one floor, because the elevator wasn't coming. The emergency exit at the reception is blocked with umbrellas by the way. The room was very dark, with a minimum of light coming in through the uncleaned windows. Only at night, the neon sign outside illuminates the room, which was very annoying. The bathroom was also very poorly lit, it had the only mirror in the room and there was a lack of storage space. Some of the furniture was outdated or had been replaced with cheap plastic. The TV was too low on the board, so you could only see three-quarters of the screen when you were lying in bed, there was also some foil from the packaging stuck there, to prevent the TV from getting scratched. This room felt more like a hostel than a hotel. The saddest part was the breakfast, we only had it once, but didn't eat it because we didn't want pre-made microwave food.  Otherwise, there were cornflakes, coffee and tea available for self-service. The photos showing a complete buffet are outdated, probably from before Covid. Unfortunately, many good reviews led us to book here. I wouldn't recommend this hotel to anyone.

Great hotel in a central area! Staff are super friendly and really helpful and accommodating. Rooms are dated but clean and comfortable. Breakfast is a set menu and a little different each day. You are able to opt out of the hot breakfast plate and just have cereal and toast is that is more suitable. Location is great, nestled between to stations on different lines making it easy to get around. This was a starting point hotel for an Intrepid trip but would use again as a solo traveller.

Great hotel, location is good as well, lots of things to explore around the area. There is a night market like 5 minutes from hotel that is very good experience to do with real locals and not touristy. Hotel had good WiFi. Walls are thin and I could actually hear next room man snoring during night. Breakfast is decent . They give you a fixed sandwich plate with lettuce tomatoes etc , every day different sandwich, and there is toast, brea, jam and cereal and coffee etc. I wish they had boiled eggs on counter with toast. If they don’t do omelets boiled eggs would be nice to have. Hotel has delicious coffee and tea all day to pick up free from the dinning room. MRT stop is 10 minutes walk from hotel. Overall we had great stay. Staff are super friendly and helpful, and you can put your luggage in storage after check out.
