convenient location, some minor flaws

central locationriverside restaurantsriver cruisesubway access
i liked location on the river. it sits across the street from a shopping mall and the subway station. a short walk across the bridge took me to riverside restaurants in clarke quay. a boat dock allowed river tours to the bay and the lion statue. the river cruise gave me nice views of the financial district. i considered this a good spot to stay for six days.
i noticed the price of drinks lacked clarity. the 30% resident discount did not work in the lobby bar. happy hour rules varied between bars at different times, something that became costly to figure out.
