Stayed in a two bedroom apartment with 2 adults and 2 kids, aged 10 and 9 for 7 nights. The apartment is in a great location, access to the supermarket is really handy. Plenty of room for the 4 of us, the kitchen has everything you need, the washer/dryer was really useful to have. The pool is fabulous, bigger than a lot of other places and never very busy. Lounge area and outside seating was all nice to sit and have sandwiches etc. Staff were all excellent and very helpful. Only negative was some noice from nearby building site which we could hear intermittently but I think this is everywhere in Singapore. Overall would highly recommend and would stay here again.

When I thought it's a serviced apartment, I was thinking just that. But I was wrong! Our stay here was better than some hotels around the world which we have stayed before. Not only is there a full sized swimming pool but also gym, and other play areas. Service is really good - from the sales team, security personnel, counter staff and house-keeping staff. The apartment is well connected to the mall next door without walking in the open too. Will definitely come back if even we want another staycation.

GWSA was one of the best places I have stayed, the room and facilities were fabulous. It was clean and we had everything we needed..even a balcony which is rare to get. My favorite feature was the 41mtr pool, this is unusually large for holiday accommodation. The staff were amazing and I cannot fault it at all. The gym was good and all the lifts were working which is rare. Highly recommend booking a stay there, its very central and with the shopping centre next door everything is at your fingertips. I recommend trying a serviced apartment over a hotel, you just get more space and its not a busy and cheaper, GWSA gets a huge tick in my books, would happily stay there again.

Liked:- comfortable and roomy 3 bedroom apartment, with large fridge and working aircon. Disliked:- no icetrays in fridge to make ice for drinks. No basic food items such as sugar, milk, teabags and coffee to make a hot drink, unusual for the high price we pay for the accommodation. Room service only twice a week, we ran out of toilet paper, two rolls for 4 people to share.

I was connected to a good shopping mall with restaurants etc. Perhaps the only downside is that it is currently a bit of a way from the nearest MRT although one is under construction to serve the shopping mall. However taxis work very well in Singapore so it wasn't a problem.
