Laundry might well figure large for you Aster, that doesn't surprise me.aster wrote:JR8 wrote:I've stayed in Citadines Mt.

So have you actually stayed there or is it now "Citadines says it features..." as if you were just browsing their web site?
Last time around you mentioned that you're living in a German palace and that I'm paying for it... so believing in what you write is proving increasingly difficult.
And this is coming from a guy who claims to have been slapped around and punched in the face repeatedly by... his wife?JR8 wrote:Laundry might well figure large for you Aster, that doesn't surprise me.
I've always considered it the domain of women and types such as ...
Just for your information, Citadines is considered a more "cost effective" as you are paying lesser for it does not provide the full services like a normal Service Apartment. thus, you just need to pay for the specific services you required.aster wrote:I once considered Citadines Mt Sophia but there were two major drawbacks that made this place stand out in a negative way:
- no pool
- no washing machines in apartments
All other Serviced Apartments I looked at had them, so this seemed quite strange...
Basically, service apartment is more for people staying for a short to middle term stay of 1 month to 1-2 years stay. It is like a home away from home, with the "hotel" services provided at a cheaper rate compared to hotel (plus hotel does not have a kitchen). The minimum stay requirement for service apartment in Singapore is 7 nights unless they have a hotel license which allow them to lease out the apartment by per night like a hotel (like Ascott). Thus, it is cost-effective for expats or family who wants a home-like feeling with the comfort of the hotel services like housekeeping services, laundry services and concierge services. It is very well-like by a lot of people these days.zzm9980 wrote:Oh ok, I assumed Somerset would have it as Ascott did. It was a small very quiet unit in hidden inside a kitchen cabinet.
It was my first experience at a Service Apartment. And honestly, except the washer and stove top, I'm not quite sure what the differences are otherwise from that and a nice hotel. Sure not the cost, as the per-night was MBS territory.
Why not a hotel then?
