Exterior |
The
morning before we checked into the hotel, I tried calling the hotel to ask for
early check in. They nearly gave me a heart-attack early in the morning because
they told me they can’t find my name in their system. Frantically, I keep
asking the receptionist to search carefully and eventually she found my name.
Phewww ~ (LUCKY)
In the
end, although we are able to check-in earlier, we took our time to buy snacks
and lunch over before checking in. Ended up, we still check in at the timing
previously assigned which was 14:00.
SNACKS~ WOHOOOO |
The
hotel is walking distance from city square mall and conveniently there’s one
bustop situated right in front of it.
Reception Counter |
The
receptionist was nice and greeted us warmly however she seemed like she is
still new to the job as her working speed is not up to standard and she is
unsure of certain things in the hotel. She even forgot to ask me to sign the
indemnity form which I then only realized need to be sign when we are checking
out.
1 & only Lift |
They
should have more than one lift as the hotel has too many floors. It is rather
irritating to stop at every single level whenever we want to take the lift up
and down.
Spot the Room Key! |
Upon
receiving our room key, we quickly make our way up to our room at level 4. Our
room was to our likings – spacious, clean, pleasant smell & comfortable J.
Double Bed |
Tea/Coffee Making Set & Complimentary Water |
Flat-Screen Television |
Toilet [Towels provided :)] |
As
usual, once we stepped into the room, we are too lazy to make our way out. Just
want to rest the whole day inside the room.
But nope, time is precious, can’t
waste it like this. So after munching away some snacks and my favourite mashed
potato from Popeyes, we decided to head out and continue our original plan of
going East Coast Park for cycling & roller-blading.
The
most epic thing happened: someone left his wallet in the room!
The black Pedro wallet spotted! Was covered under the NTUC plastic bag |
So we
eventually never went to ECP and head out to citi square mall for our early
dinner and shop around the mall. We had jap food for dinner @ Nihon Mura!
We
thought of watching movie but seemed like no movie interests us so we went into
Toys ‘R’ Us to walk around. Just happened to see this Monopoly Hotel board game
which made us fascinated over it. So we bought it back @ $10, what a good deal
isn’t it?
At the
moment when we are making payment, we were asked to sign up for their
membership card for free, since the card looks nice why not?
Meanwhile, I also
asked them to wrap the board game up since also free. Always wanted to receive
a gift in a wrapper when is what I chose but not I paid for it.
Finally
we are back to our hotel room again and I was happily unwrapping the present
like a small kid. At the same time, trying to figure out how to play the new
board game we bought. It was really entertaining for us through the night!
After
a 2 rounds of long battle, we are KO! So we went to sleep and wake up for
breakfast the next morning. Heard reviews sad that the breakfast not worth
trying, but still I would like to see it for myself.
Dining Area |
Plates and Cups |
Toaster |
Eggs, Sausages, Hashbrown, Noodles, etc |
Tea, Milk, Coffee |
My Breakfast |
It is
really disappointing, nothing seem appealing to me hence I only grab two
toasts, scrambled egg and some sausages to fill up the plate. The tea tasted
weird also, smelled like jasmine tea which is not to my liking.
Thereafter,
we went back to our room to kill some time before checking out at 12pm on the
dot. No one bother to give us a call to remind us to check out, lucky we are
aware of the time ourselves.
