Hi there,

anyone can help me? I am searching for the fastest and easiest route out from woodland causeway to Fragrance Hotel(Crystal) for my overseas friend. I don't want her to change too many bus service, scared that she might lose her way while trying to find the hotel. Thanks.

Address : 50 Geylang Road, Lorong 18 Singapore

hahahaha GEYLANG!!!!

OK you should take bus 170 and go to the end (Queen Street) and from there go to a bus stop along Victoria Street take a bus that goes to SIMS AVE or Guilemard Road

Strange a girl will book a hotel in the mid of Geylang right? Laughing

maurizio13 SG

I am wondering if he's pimping.

There are lots of other budget hotels around, other than those in Geylang. Frankly, if my friend is a girl, I don’t think I want her staying at those places.

AndrewPKYap SG

Maybe she is just open minded…

But really lor, I also feel that she should not stay near such place. All the Ah pek very dirty minded one. Anyway, I think it's cheap there lar.

Haha… i not pimp lah. I also very surprised when she told me that she booked fragrance hotel. I was like ????. She was previously telling me that she want to book boon wah hotel(Little India) or cozy hostel(Bugis) but all was fulled. She first time travelling out of Thailand and furthermore she alone. I worry for her.

How about if i ask her to take 168 from woodland int all the way to tampines before changing bus 7 to geylang? Is it much faster this way cos i see 170 route quite long? 168 most of the route expressway + bus 7 only 7-8 station to geylang?

AndrewPKYap SG

I used to live in Bangkok…

eight8 SG

i guess that she wanted to prove to herself that she can travel alone coz i feel her trip was not really planned well. She departed BKK on fri 27/07 morning to penang(1 day), KL(1 day), Malacca(1 day), Singapore(1 1/2 day) before returning back to BKK.

To me, like that, how to see and enjoy everything when it is so rushing? I am actually quite worry since she only have a rough plan but not detailed one.

AndrewPKYap SG

How is she going to where 168 is???? You can't get to Causeway Point (where you can take 168 ) from the Woodlands Causeway!

If she can get to Causeway Point, why take 168? Might as well take MRT to Aljunied and from Aljunied MRT walk to the hotel...

AndrewPKYap SG

Are you sure she will end up at Woodlands? If she takes a Malacca - Sin express bus, she will most likely end up at Beach Road!

Maybe someone used the room before your friend, then when she use the bed or chair, there is something sticky on it.

Mr. Green

Oxford Hotel in Queen Street is quite cheap also, maybe $70-80.

eight8 SG

Opps… forget to include that she will reach JB tonight, staying there for one night first. You are right for 168.

can take Singapore-Jhore Express or CW2 from Causeway.
Express service to Queen street (where 170 ends as well).

cost RM2.50

AndrewPKYap SG

take from where?

airgrinder SG

why not go to hotel 81 chinatown or hotel 81 bencoolen? They’re the “better and safer” budget hotels in the hotel 81 group.

eight8 SG

I can't do anything much now as she had already booked online before leaving Thailand. Furthermore, she book first then tell me. How to help?
