It is really useful to have a commodity card. As long as you have a mobile phone, you can buy things. It is very convenient. It is also a good place to meet friends for coffee, chat and rest.

My sister and I took the Pineapple Cakes DIY class and we enjoyed it so much! The instructions on the tablet was easy to follow and all the materials were readily-available. The staff was very helpful and attentive. The souvenir photo was a nice touch. It is my sister’s first time to travel overseas and this is the first activity she did and it sure was memorable.

Very good accommodation, beautiful decoration, although the room is a bit small, but can barely open two suitcases. The location is also very convenient, only a 5-minute walk from the MRT and there are many restaurants nearby.
