As mentioned in the title of my review , this is my second time staying in Lloyd's Inn with my boyfriend.
I chose one of their more luxurious room as a birthday treat for my partner and it was definitely a worthy decision. The minimalist concept is comfortable and soothing , a refreshing break from the usual hectic work routine. I enjoyed everything about the design of the room , from the outdoor sitting balcony and outdoor shower space (spacious bathtub) to the main interior space. Though i must admit , the second storey in the room does not seem to serve much purpose for our visit this time round. It probably may suit couples / travelers travelling for business purpose better with the spacious long table with a window facing outside for natural sunlight to do work.
I love the sweet gestures of a beautiful hand written birthday card , chocolate as a birthday gift and leaving newspaper right at the door handle every morning of our stay. The receptionists are all very professional and always serve with a smile on their faces.
The breakfast at the nearby cafe is delicious , their pastries along with their hot beverages are a great start to the day. Walking distance to the mrt station , which probably takes about 15 to 20 mins (dependent on how fast you walk) makes it easy to move about without having to hop on a bus or grab/cab. There is a convenience store within 10 mins walk and food stores along the same row if anyone finds it too inconvenient to head out further for meals.
Overall , it was a cosy and wonderful experience. Lovely lovely lovely!
