People complain about this hotel need to understand that it is old, guests eat in their rooms so thus ant will come! Finding another hotel with large rooms and a swimming pool at this price is hard to find! The taxi drivers are very impressed for the value! Have stayed here many times with my young family and will continue to do! Only ENTITLED guests complain!

This is a gorgeous retreat hotel. Pool and ocean side by side with a beautiful buffet breakfast for 2 dollars a couple. Make sure you ask. Staff friendly and helpful in every way. I will come back. Your a street removed so not as noisy. Tons of restaurants and night life. Tours at hotel reasonable and they take care of everything. I’m solo so great place, so beautiful the surroundings.

Avoid this place at all costs. I checked out after night 1 of my 14 day stay. Hotel 81 TriStar refused to give a refund. Expedia tried unsuccessfully as well. - The bed wasn't a King sized bed as pictured in the Expedia description. Instead two twin beds combined. - I booked a city view room but got a pool side review. Staff said it was because they were busy they couldn't give me the room I booked. - the hotel listing advertises digital TV channels. Instead it's just 6 channels that appear to be over the air channels. Very staticy hard to see the picture - The air conditioning didn't work. The room was extremely hot even with the AC as low as you can go - The toilet was very old & dirty - the tub was stained, the shower didn't have hot water. The water pressure was very weak and you couldn't move the shower head, it barely came up to my stomach. - They didn't provide soap in the bathroom. - the chair at the desk was worn and scrapped my leg sitting in it - The Wi-Fi was very very very slow & kept crashing. I couldn't stay here another night and booked another better hotel in Singapore after night #1. I asked for at least 10 days of the 14 days refunded but the hotel told Expedia they wouldn't refund. Avoid this place at all costs. Wish I could get my money back. I've visited 10 countries and stayed in many hotels. This was the worst stay ever!

For the age of the hotel it is great value for money, people must bear in mind the cost for a room, you get what you pay for. Have stayed here on numerous occasions, this time with our 29 month old infant, this shows how comfortable we are with this hotel!
