"It’s a fairly good location but unfortunately the place is really run down. It’s in desperate need of basic repairs, a coat of paint and some decent bedding.
WiFi is so poor that some days it’s non existent."

"Old furnishing, sofa, bedding and towels etc were sparse and looked very worn out. The apartment was not clean and floor was sticky we had to wear footwear during the stay. Checking in was easy, but note that the mailbox locks dont work so anyone can get in or out of your room easily and you will have no clue. Location is great. Parking is ample and great."

"I enjoyed staying here very much. The apartment was very clean and I felt very safe. The view was amazing and I watched the sunrise every morning. The swimming pool was great. For me, the location was perfect. The bus stop was very close and there were plenty of restaurants, cafes and some great supermarkets which made it very convenient . There is also a great walk to Straits Quay and beyond which I did every morning. l went to Gurney Drive Hawker Centre most evenings for dinner. I explored...

"The location of the property is good. The maintenance of the property is very bad. The bathing area was full of stain, the water hose was leaking. The water kettle is only good for one day."

"We booked the hotel BUT got NO indication how to check in. When we arrived at the hotel and contacted with the Agent, we were told that NO ROOM was lept for us and we were told to Grab to another hotel (which was much poor in terms of facilities, even no micro-wave oven was provided and broken bed) for checking in."

"Everything was excellent and I would recommend it to stay. Excellent location, about 20 minutes walk to centre of old town. Found some wonderful restaurants behind the hotel. (NK kitchen and le vie en meigui. And the main street food area is next to the hotel."
"We had a very pleasant stay overall. For a refurbished property, the room was impressively clean, spacious, and well-maintained. The views were beautiful too—whether facing the city or the sea, both offered a lovely backdrop to our stay.
The staff throughout the hotel were warm, helpful, and welcoming, which made the experience even more enjoyable. Their hospitality was genuinely appreciated.
We slept very well for most of our stay. However, on our final night, there were recurring loud sounds coming from the water piping system between approximately 1am and 3am. I’m not certain of the cause, but it was noticeable enough to disrupt our sleep. It may be worth having the piping checked.
The pool area was pleasant and enjoyable. One small suggestion would be to have staff make occasional rounds to monitor tidiness and safety around the pool. There were quite a few crows around during our visit, and they seemed rather interested in guests’ belongings left on the sunbeds.
Breakfast was another highlight—generous in variety and well-prepared. I would happily recommend it, especially for guests looking to avoid the more tourist-oriented prices around the Gurney Drive area while still enjoying a satisfying meal.
Overall, it was a great stay with excellent value, comfortable accommodations, and wonderful service. With a little attention to the unusual water piping noise, the experience would have been even better."
"Lovely, spacious and luxurious room with water dispensers provided. Very helpful staff, easy access to food and tourist sights and enjoyed the stay a lot!"
"Enjoyed three relaxing nights at M Social. My ocean view room was great, clean and spacious. Friendly and helpful staff. Plenty of delicious vegetarian options at the breakfast buffet. However, as a retired woman traveling alone, I found the resort on the quiet side, with all activities a Grab ride away. I'd recommend it for families, though: lots of happy kids in the pool."
"Excellent location for visiting Georgetown historic sights - easily walkable. Nice comfortable twin room, modern design. Clean roof top pool with views of harbour. Good choice for breakfast."
"Great and personalised service. My parents enjoyed their stay. The hotel messed up a bit with their pick up service but then recovered the experience extremely well. Strongly recommend. Hotel staff such as Ummi, Maiyuri and many others made it a pleasant stay."
