8/10
this hotel is quiet a bit farther away from where the shopping centres are if you are a tourist but it is worthed the economical value (thus the name) there are places to eat around the hotel within walking distances. There's not much to see around the area but the hotel has a free shuttle service to local shopping mall (novena sq) with an mrt station beneath it.
The hotel staff are okay but they are mighty helpful, getting a taxi is easy just let the receptionist know. There are a lot of tourists and tour groups staying at this place so expect high volume of people at the lobby during certain timing.
