Stayed here as a Diamond on a free night stay. Was notified I was getting an upgrade. My flight landed at 5pm, and I was checking out at 4am for an early flight. I told the ee of that fact. There were many available rooms to upgrade me to-and I got the least possible. I got a pool view room on the 9th floor. So really no view of the pool, and basically a view of the road. Considering I was checking out so early, and I was in Asia, I thought that pretty poor. I ate in the Italian restaurant, and they wouldn't let me charge my dinner to my room. I thought that a) very strange (I've never had a hotel refuse that before), and b) really poor service. So I wasn't overly thrilled with my stay.

Supposedly the higher view is an upgrade, but not by much. The room is no bigger, so I don't see how it is. On points, you get a standard room, whatever that is. I took my 600 points instead of the free drink. The guy I talked to ended up buying my dinner as he felt bad that I was going to have to go all the up to my 9th floor room, and back down again, to pay, especially after they let him charge his dinner to his room. I wrote the hotel to complain, and ask for points, but I expect nothing.

Lounge access on arrival?
We’re hoping to get a quick shower in once we arrive in Changi. We’re arriving in SQ Business class, but I don’t think the Business lounges allow access in arrivals, unless that’s changed?? We have priority pass also, do Priority pass lounges any of the Priority Pass lounges allow access on arrivals?

Otherwise, I'd ask in the Singapore forum.

This might be helpful as it confirms SQ Business class passengers have no opportunity for an arrival lounge + showers
Singapore Arrivals Lounge
Does Alaska MVP Gold 100K get me arrival lounge access in SIN?
Access to Lounges at SIN upon arrival
Changi Jewel (Arrivals) Lounge Report
However .......
Seems priority pass holders can use upon arrival the (in public area) Jewel 's Changi Lounge

It seems to have shower rooms.
Someone comments there
"I just checked in to the Changi Lounge after arriving in Changi Airport an hour ago and with no departure flight.
Used my Priority Pass.
The lounge staff at the entrance confirmed that arrivals are ok so long as within 24 hours, need not even be the same calendar day."
