Yeah, I wasn't expecting anything and only booked during my arrival to try the buffet YYZ had mentioned. I was quite taken aback with no resistance on my 8 am check in and the FD proactively asserting fees won't be assessed, because I've experienced enough of SE Asia to appreciate the term "Singaporean Style" when it comes to these things. LOL

Anyway, room was great, nice view, amenities clean and really a lot of bang for my buck, comparatively speaking. And, the buffet had so much food there it wasn't possible to try it all, and I just wept at having found the roasted pork/roasted duck/soy sauce chicken station late that I literally couldn't feast on them. Goes without saying, I'll stay here again both for the hotel and for the buffet, and even their breakfast buffet was a comprehensive feast on its own.

By the way, those pasta pics look simply fabulous!
