Staycation: Furama City Centre Review (old is gold?)

Written Review: www.wahsoshiok.com/furama-cit...
Hello everyone - welcome to another of my reviews. In this video, I’ll be reviewing my recent staycation at Furama City Centre.
Furama City Centre - or FCC for short - was designated as an SHN hotel for the better part of the pandemic, and only reopened to the public late last year. Since then, it has garnered popularity as a top pick for an affordable staycation. Out of curiosity, I decided to check FCC out - let's see how my stay went.
Overall, I would say the Furama City Centre exceeded my expectations. I had my reservations given the age of the hotel and the bad publicity it received when it reopened, but I was pleasantly surprised by the general cleanliness of the room and its amenities. It's certainly much better than comparable four-star ageing hotels such as York Hotel. I absolutely loved the view from the room - the view is to die for. I also appreciated its convenient location, with both Chinatown Point and The Central being a mere 5-minutes walk from the hotel. My only complaint would be the service, which came across as brusque at times. I recall dialling for additional water and towels (after finally getting through), and having my room bell ring about 10-15 minutes later. However, when I opened the door there was no one - the water bottles and towels were placed in a plastic bag and hung on the door handle. I understand that FCC isn't a 5-star hotel so service expectations have to be tempered, but greeting the guest is basic hospitality.
Those interested in booking a stay at Furama City Room can do so on the Traveloka app. Traveloka constantly has some sort of ongoing promotion, with prices so ridiculously low that I’ve personally booked about 90% of my staycations on Traveloka. Just for my readers, you guys can use the promo code “WAHTVLK” (non-SRV) for $10 off any hotels or attractions purchase (with a minimum spending of $100) for new users and $5 off any hotels or attractions purchase (with a minimum spending of $50) for existing users. The code is valid till the end of 2022. Here’s a pro tip: keep a lookout for Traveloka’s Weekend Flash Sales which occurs every Friday to Sunday for the lowest prices! However, this post is not sponsored - I paid my own dime to book the hotel.

Thanks for the review. Note this is actually the deluxe room and not superior room.
I did wish you did talk about the paid self-service Laundry option. Not many hotel offer this option and this can be considerable cheaper than getting dry cleaning.

mould in a hotel room is unacceptable, its a health risk
thanks for the review, this is one to avoid I think

omg. for a 4-star hotel, it shouldn't have that mould!!!

Also, any good suggestion for 3 adults under 250SGD (with breakfast) for september?

Hi do they serve free breakfast? Thanks

[@WahSoShiok]

I believe breakfast is paid, unless your room rate includes it.
