3D 2N in Studio M Hotel, Singapore

So here we are at LCCT. My bags are packed (very lightly) and I have not slept since the previous night, worried I wouldn’t be able to wake up if I did sleep and miss our flight to Singapore. We had looked at both Firefly and Air Asia rates prior to booking and since the latter was way cheaper, we decided to save on flight tickets by flying with Air Asia.

Let's go already!

Checking in was a breeze since we were early and there was not a long queue and we decided to have a quick bite before flying.

Breakfast

Morning PMU

I love flying to Singapore by the way because the trip is so short. Less than an hour and we arrived in Changi Airport, breezed through customs, got a cab and headed to Nanson Road to Studio M, the 4-star hotel we had booked online.

Outside Studio M

I think we got a pretty good deal on our room @ Studio M, breakfast included and free Wi-Fi . You know how I love hotel stays and besides the perks I’ve just mentioned, we chose this particular hotel for its location within the Clarke Quay and Robertson Quay entertainment hotspots, and the unique loft design of the rooms. Speaking of great deals, don’t forget to check out other awesome deals for apartments in Budapest online, if you’re headed to Europe that is!

Welcome!

While B checked in to our room, I walked around to snap photos of the lobby. It was sunny outside but there was a slight breeze thanks to the morning rain so weather-wise that first day in Singapore, it was perfect. Definitely not as hot as the last time we vacationed in Sentosa Island last year.

Checking in

Service while checking in was pleasant. The front desk staff was friendly, very accommodating and asked if we preferred a city view or a pool view. We requested for a city view and our room was also upgraded F.O.C. from premier to the executive loft, which got me excited since I’ve never had a free room upgrade before!

Cosy Corner

Seating Area

When we actually got to our room however, we really couldn’t tell the difference between a premier and an executive room. But just having the upgrade made for a nice welcome-to-Singapore surprise so thanks Studio M! I wonder what surprise will be in store for us if we check-in to one of the glamorous Budapest apartments should Europe be our next vacation destination.

Our room was on the 3rd floor and as we walked down the narrow dimly-lit corridor leading to our room right at the end, we were greeted by a friendly old lady who was part of the housekeeping staff. She was cleaning the rooms on our floor and throughout our stay, she’d greet us every time she sees us, which made us feel very much at home.

Room key in place, we pushed the door open, eager to see what’s behind Room 3.01. Here we go!

Beautiful don’t you think? Though small, the chic, stylish loft-inspired design of the room made sure we had everything we need, plus the feel of being in your own home, with a separate sleeping loft above and a working and living area below.

Work space with a view

The bathroom was really small but clean, equipped with all the facilities you need to enjoy a nice hot/cold shower in a cosy simple layout.

Coffee or Tea?

Complimentary mineral water

Upstairs, there is a comfy plush bed, the second TV, the usual basic shelves to put your belongings and a small side table. I love how cosy it was up in the loft!

Up to the loft!

Cosy comfort

Watch out for the ceiling though. The ceiling is low so you had to be careful not to knock your head. The glass panel, which made for walls on one side of the bed was a little low. I was afraid of falling down so I made sure not to lean anywhere near that area.
