Business Ready: Open communal workspaces

“I appreciate the attempt at a boutique experience with a Moroccan-inspired aesthetic in Little India, but the execution appears to fall short, based on reports of cleanliness issues. While the location is central and potentially convenient for exploring the area, the value proposition seems questionable given these concerns. For a truly restorative stay, I'd suggest exploring other options in Singapore.”
