Right now I'm in love with this hotel.
Last night I was going nuts because of the smell in the toilet. Jeroen said the smell seemed to come from the drainage hole in the floor. So I called housekeeping who sprayed it like a fumigation. The smell was so thick, I had to cover my nose with a T-shirt. Jeroen told me to leave the door open to let the air out.

I took a sleeping pill because I was afraid of getting up at night to use the toilet. It other words, I turned phobic.
This morning, as I was getting ready to shower, I turned on the water from outside the stall to start warming the water. I was not aware that the freaking shower head was turned towards my face, so when I turned it on, this really strong splash of water hit me and drenched my entire makeup kit on the sink (read: small bathroom).
I was so frustrated I wanted to cry. I asked Jeroen to kindly wipe all my makeup while I showered, which he did. I'm so grateful.

At that moment I decided to move out of the room. I didn't want to leave Singapore with this disgusting feeling. After getting dressed I rang the manager to ask for an upgrade. It really helps that most of the staff here are Filipinos. The manager, Gio, came from Sofitel.
For an extra fee, we moved into the Luxury Suite. So here we are in seriously one of the best rooms I've ever stayed in. My camera cannot capture the beauty of this room.
It's dark, modern and moody. I feel like not leaving the room, but we have stuff to do.
Jeroen is taking a nap while I'm typing this on bed.

There's a kitchenette, tons of closets, two flat-screen TVs, ironing room (unbelievable), stand-up refrigerator and more.
Now I'm gonna run out to the Raffles Hotel next door and look at the shops before our meeting at 6.
Tomorrow we head home.

But were the shampoo bottles full and unused? Kidding. It looks like a very pretty room. Inggit. :)

of course I checked. the bath gel was slightly like this, so maybe it's Kiehl's. I don't know

Hmm. Oo nga. Hopefully it's just irregularity on the manufacturer's side and not the hotel's. Sayang naman to have people's visits ruined because of alanganin bath gels.

Kiehl's always has a seal for their products, this should also be the same in the hotel amenities. I just checked my stock here at home and they are sealed. If they did not have the seal protection its questionable?

i don't know if it goes for hotel amenities

WOW! That is one great looking hotel room! Planning to visit sing soon! Is it a nice location? Have fun and happy that your enjoying yourself! INGAT!

yes it is! so many places to eat and shop around here. much more interesting than touristy Orchard Road.

yeh, i agree. it should be sealed. pero the first one looks used talaga.

i'm glad you found the right hotel room na. too bad about the shower, but i guess that was a wake up call for you. it was the sign.

you're right. the shower was also probably telling me to stop bitching about the room, hehe

I was checking the website of Naumi last night after your post at naisip ko that you will be calling reception next morning to get an upgrade! Tama nga ako! xD

Nice! Maganda naman pala...

Hope all is well with your Singapore stay.

i'm having a good time now :)

Wow, the room is amazing. is there a view from the room?

a view of the Raffles Hotel mall :)

i'll have a conference in march and i'll be staying at the gallery hotel...

from the website, it looks interesting although i'm not sure about the location. the themed rooms kinda just reminds me of the motels here na chochal....

I've stayed there. location is way off, but it's OK. just make sure you're in non-smoking floor

Room 807, Gallery Hotel

Banyo at Gallery Hotel

fair enough,seeing a lovely view of a mall is enough for a self-confessed shopaholic like me. :D

That's more like it and I love the gelaskin on Jeroen's macbook pro. Or is that yours?
