Stayed for 2 nights at Pan Pacific Serviced Suites One Bedroom Deluxe Suite. What I liked was that all bedrooms regardless of price, has the same size. Yay to 45sqm room!
The place is just right opposite of Haji Lane and there is an overhead bridge to cross over.
Was able to check-in by 1.30pm and went to nearby Noodle Thai Thai Kitchen for a quick lunch.

The room photos are pretty accurate.

After conjuring up the various delicious (albeit unrealistic) images of dishes that one could attempt to cook after checking out the well equipped kitchenette, let's head on to the bedroom area.

Yes, there are two TVs! One in the living room and another in the bedroom. Both shares the same remote.
Cleanliness could have been better as there were discoveries of black stain marks (shoeprints?) on the bedsheet as well as hair. As it was written that housekeeping will not be available on Sundays, I quickly made a call at about 5pm to ask for a change of bedsheets. The call took about 20 minutes for it to be answered, but housekeeping did drop by promptly thereafter. Thanks to the young chap who helped to change the sheets.

The water strength was nice and no issue with the bathroom. Just need to roll down the blinds before taking off anything else, I suppose the occupants from the next building could catch a glimpse.

And, if you ever wanted to do your laundry during your stay, head back to the kitchenette area.

The washing powder is provided, and located under the sink.

The operating manual is placed at the living room, near the TV.

Not sure what I did incorrectly, but after washing the clothes on my last day of stay, the clothes didn't get dry even after hours of using the dryer. So went home with damp clothes. Faints!
And in the event, that one does cook in the room, you may get this type of photos.
hearty breakfast thanks to master chefs and supreme assistant |
While we were there, we managed to try buffet lunch at Si Chuan Dou Hua Restaurant which was just a few minutes walk away. Read more about it here.
Overall, I liked the place for its close proximity to the nearby eateries and convenience store. The huge living and bedroom space were lovely. The kitchenette is well equipped. However, on Day 2, I discovered that one of the wine glasses had broken. Called the receptionist to inform and they sent a replacement glass. Thank you for the friendly staff who brought the replacement glass.
One thing to note is that the Nespresso capsule is limited to 3 per room and will not be replenished. Additional capsule is priced at $1.50.
Thanks to staycay buddies Ivan, Hence and Tracy for making delicious memories together. Till our next one, stay safe!
