Stayed here recently and mostly enjoyed my stay.
Here's my pros and cons


PROs

-Right next door to the Holiday inn Express Singapore Katong

-Really nice decor in the rooms. The made a true effort to make the hotel look unique and colourful.

-Modern walk in shower with nice retro decor.

-Decent, to excellent good views from the "heritage" rooms depending on how high your floor is.

-Rooftop swimming pool is really nice, but not that deep. Amazing 180 degree views from the rooftop area which includes the pool and a bar area with about 10 tables.

-Interesting surrounding area, with many traditional shophouse buildings, local restaurants, cafes, bars, convenience stores and a 5 story shopping mall called "i12 Katong" all nearby. Supermarket located in the basement of the shopping mall.

-In room safe available

-Friendly staff and nice decor throughout the hotel.


CONs

-No Nearby MRT (metro) station until the new one opens in the year 2024.

-No coin laundry in the hotel (The next door Holiday Inn express DOES have one, but not sure if you can go across and use it.)

-Windows can NOT be opened for fresh air

-The bathroom setup in the "heritage" rooms is really weird. The toilet is in its own separate (very small) room near the entrance, while the shower and sink area is right by the very big floor to ceiling windows looking down onto a VERY BUSY sidewalk and street below. Who on earth thought is was a good idea to arrange the shower and sink right where the best views are ?? Added to this, the windows are NOT frosted or even shaded in any way, which means that is you forget to lower the blinds EVERYONE on the busy sidewalk and street below can see you CLEARLY in the shower, especially at night with the lights on. There is even a sticker in the window which says "The view from the window may be nice, but do remember the view is two ways. Please draw the blinds for your privacy." Remember that there is even a law in Singapore that says the police can fine (and possibly arrest) you if you are naked in a private property, if you are still visible to people not inside the property with you. Singapore is known for being very strict with all its laws, so its not improbable the police will turn up at hotel reception if you forget to lower the blinds fully while showering. They really could have thought this through better. It just seems poor planning both from a legal standpoint, and from a practical aspect. Putting the showers near the room entrance would have been a much better solution.
