The Artist Residence

You get a decent room with a private bathroom, kitchen with a kettle and sitting area to chill. The AC worked great in cooling down the room quite quickly. The room is a nice little nest after spending the day out in the city. The location is also great as you are quite close to the attractions. The staff are very welcoming and friendly. Having a little coffee shop is a great addition as well.

The stairs...if are on the 3rd floor and have a lot of luggage, carrying your luggage up and down the stairs is guaranteed exhaustion and dripping of sweat, but you only need to do that when you arrive and leave. It seems noise from the neighbors in the building next to the Artist residence comes through and can be quite annoying.

1. location - near to royal museum and river side. also 24 hours convenience store is available about 5 mins walking. 2. cafe - the hotel is of 4-storey walk up shop house with cafe on the ground floor. the coconut milk coffee is tasty! 3. kitchen and laundry - both functioning well. the kitchen appliances fridge, microwave, electric stove, electirc keetle are working well (but remember to buy your own cooking oil, onion if you want to cook. dish detergent and sponge is not provided. laundry soap is also not provided (but can ask the hotel if they can provide for you). 4. water heater is working

1. the wifi is not that strong 2. be mindful that this is a walk up hotel, please ask assistance on your room level. Mine was at the top floor, quite inconvenient since im travelling with toddler. 3. no hair dryer or iron provided 4. the bath tub at our hotel balcony is dirty 5. the waste from the kitchen (after washing) is directly transferred to the bathroom. i was surprised to see the leftover waste inside the bathroom 6. the air-condition is not working well 7. tv is not working well (channels are limited and visual is not clear) 8. only one or two staff fluent in english. the rest are moderate to low english speaker.

we had the “family duplex family room with window”. This was a very nice room, we liked the “dining room” area, terrasse and enjoyed having a washing mashine. The lokation is perfect and staff are friendly and helpfull. Good value for the money.

It is more run Down than you can see on the photoes, more like a hostel. the first day we were woken up by a driller mashine from the renovation next door at 6am. however, the staff talked with the nabo (again), and they didn’t start before 8am the next days. Everything becomes very hot when turned on (lights, refrigerator ect). It was difficult to get the power outlets to work proberly to charge the mobiles. This room is not good for small children, there is a big whole between the upstairs floor and the stairs.

We stayed twice at the Artist's Residence. Once in the triple room and once in a double room. Staying in the Triple Room was nice. We had a little studio with a fridge. The wifi worked well and the location was great. We would stay in this room again. Rooms are quiet, even with a cafe below.

The stairs up to the higher floors are hard with bags, especially if you're staying in the Double Room on the top floor like we did, the stairs get very steep at the end. Just a heads up!

The best thing about this hotel is its location - not only because it's so close to the palace and a lovely promenade, but it's also above a cafe/restaurant. We didn't get the room we'd booked because of some issue with the AC, but were given a family room instead that was very spacious, with a kitchen. The staff were friendly and very helpful.

It could all use a bit of TLC. The photos make it look a lot more polished and beautiful than it actually is. But that's wasn't too big a deal.

We loved location, view, laundry machine at the room, bathtub at the balcony, design, good water pressure and temperature. Staff was lovely.

We had a room of the highest floor, climbing 5 floors without lift is not for everyone, be warned. (For us it was inconvenient but fun).I wouldn't call room very tidy, but it was acceptable.

Staff and coffee downstairs are very nice. The apartment is quite well organized and has a lot of things (washing machine, cooking equipment, kettle, safe, 2 small bathrooms…) Balcony and AC.

Well, It must have been amazing when it was new but now everything is a bit run down… The bathrooms should be re-done with one toilet and one shower rather than two in each… Has a really big potential!!

There are washing machines, kitchen utensils, electric fans, refrigerators, drying racks, and lots of hangers

The hotel facilities are ok, I booked a duplex, the bed is in the attic, the space is relatively small, it is a bit depressing, and easy to hit the head. The hotel does not have disposable slippers and toiletries. The attic with too hot, and the air-conditioning is difficult to come up.

Room was a suite with separate bedroom and balcony. It also had a small kitchen area. (But despite lots of kitchenware and a good kettle, nothing was provided ... not even coffee or tea.)

Fifth-floor room required a climb of 96 steps (no elevator), not easy for an older man (me). Bedding and towels went unchanged for three days.

great stay. loved the washer in the room, especially great if you are traveling for a long time to be able to wash your own clothes. the bed is beyond comfortable!! I don’t know why people say that the air con doesn’t work, but it totally does and I was freezing in the middle of the night and had to turn the aircon down.

mold on the ceiling and the bathroom is a bit gross.
