Singapore - To Stay - 5-7Oct20 (Oasia Hotel Downtown)

Oasia Hotel Downtown
5-7Oct20
SGD230/night++ (1King size bed, no charge for baby cot)

Oasia Hotel is conveniently located in the heart of Tanjong Pagar Mrt which in itself has a myriad of countless eateries and night life activities to partake in.
*View from our room*
The facilities were adequate for our needs. The room was a little cozy but the roof top pool though not as impressive as that of Marina Bay Sands was pleasant.
Pros
- Chinatown, Maxwell Market, loads of high end and affordable local delight eats (Tong Ah Coffee Shop/ Tanjong Pagar Market) in and around the area are accesible within walking distance.
Maxwell foodmart
Tong Ah Eating House
*Tong Ah Eating House Known for their old school coffee shop serving home made kaya crispy toast. The best cuppa of coffe had for the trip that we ordered two!*
- Close Proximity to Tanjong Pagar MRT Station. 1Min walk.
- If you drive its Free parking and you're allowed multiple entries and exits which makes staycation very convienient. 

Cons
- Wifi isn't quick enough to stream youtube seemlessly on the television. Pauses intermittantly but still bearable. 
- Water temperature in the shower is inconsistant and doesn't hold set temperature.
- Long 1min round about drive to get to parking located on the 4th floor. 

Overall a great location to really get to explore things near and around the area. Though the room is a little tight, the local eateries and restaurants around the area make up for it and is sure to meet the array of pallets and wallets. The free parking is a huge help to have the hotel as a base to move from location to location. Staff were pleasant, friendly and helpful in making the stay enjoyable.
