I Dread Travel Days
I remember the first few hours of the trip was NOT fun at all. After this trip I have learned to hate travel days altogether. A travel day is when I have to move from either city to city. This involves any logistics of flights, public transport or taxis.
I had no internet and no cash on hand (Which I have come to realise are 2 essential things that could aid in finding your way around. Try finding a building or street address in 2022 without Google Maps is Torture!!! Mix that in with lugging a 25kg luggage, hungry and raining. Not a fun way to re-ignite the first international travel since Covid.
Anyhow, anyone who has intention to stay at LYF hotel, do note, that you want to enter the Funan mall from the McDonalds end, and not the end from the City Hall side. The idea is that you are required to go up to the 4th floor of the complex and the check-in is not clear, but approximately above McDonalds. My mistake came from me dragging my Luggage all the way from City Hall MRT station to the Funan building and wandering AIMLESSLY around the complex looking for anything that resembled a hotel lobby. It was already about 9:30pm now and I was tired from the long day of flying and airport transfer.
Thankfully, I was able to connect to the Funan Free Wifi and make a wifi-call to the reception of LYF and the receptionist was able to assist me to get to the lobby.
So anyhow, Long story short. Enter from the McDonalds end, of the mall if not get to the McDonalds from the ground floor and make your way up to the 4th level! Spare your SOUL!!!
Overall the hotel was adequate for my needs. There was nothing special about it, besides it being on the average price for Singapore standards. The location is pretty good for a 20 minute walk to either the Esplanade or Chinatown.
