I had a pleasant stay at Hotel Classic By Venue. The room was small and windowless, but very clean and comfortable. The location is excellent, surrounded by 24/7 food options and close to the MRT station, making it convenient for exploring. However, the lack of parking and some minor issues with Wi-Fi speed for streaming were drawbacks.

My stay at Hotel Classic By Venue was quite pleasant, highlighted by the really good service from staff like Sir Joshua and Mr. Reyes. The room was cozy yet somewhat small, and I found it great that everything was cleaned and maintained meticulously. The location had its pros and cons. while it was close to the MRT and local food spots, reaching the airport was a bit tricky, especially with luggage.

The room I stayed in was clean and comfortable, but definitely on the smaller side, especially with two double beds. Having no windows made it feel a bit confined, but everything else, including the cleanliness and daily fresh linens, was spot on.

My stay at Hotel Classic By Venue was overall quite pleasant, thanks to the gracious staff and clean facilities. However, the room was pretty small for the price, which is typical for Singapore. While I loved the friendly vibe and helpfulness of the team, the location was a bit far from the main attractions, making it less ideal for first-time visitors.

I had a mixed experience at Hotel Classic By Venue. The location was fantastic for exploring the local area and conveniently near metro stations. However, the room I received wasn't what I'd originally booked, which was disappointing. While I appreciated the courteous staff and clean environment, the room was quite cramped, affecting my comfort during the stay.

I booked a premium double room but ended up in a small twin without a window. The beds were too firm for my liking, and the bathroom setup was rather awkward. It's a shame, as the cleanliness was commendable.

I had a wonderful stay at Hotel Classic By Venue. The staff was incredibly friendly and attentive, making me feel welcome from the moment I arrived. While the room was small and lacked a window, it was clean and well-maintained, which made it a good value for the price. However, the nearby swimming pool wasn't very inviting, being located in another hotel and somewhat dirty. Overall, I appreciated the hospitality and service during my stay.
