[sandy6979]

Guys apart from H81 and Fragnance any more hotels are allowing transit for 2 hours or so . Just curious .. Saw a few names pop up when i searched for Transit rooms . Any experienced head can share details here or PM also can .
Appreciate any inputs

Can try public sex. Or else another alternative is to buy a tent and camp in east coast. Decathlon sells cheap ones

I personally trust in the deep cleaning processes done for all hotel rooms and facilities, but that is a personal decision of which I can't predict nor can I influence. We all decide the level of risk we want to tolerate in exchange for returning to some semblance of life before where we had a respite from the daily trudge of work life.

I believe there are some paranoid yet want staycation kind of guest and hotel wont take the risk the lie to the guest, in any case the guest catches something, it can jeopardize the hotel situation.

The cleanliness of the place depends on the staff that maintain the rooms.Seriously i dont trust them as they tend to their job properly.The best is get your own towels and do a simple wipe down with your own wipes and coupled with detox spray to sanitise the air.

Only fear is sway sway if kena one case in hotel when with FWB, tio contact trace to quaratine and the family will be asking where you go kena.

For the transit hotels, can i find out their opening means we can book on a transit basis i.e. 2 hours?

Had been to a staycation at Rws after it had reopened from phase 2... when checked in everything was good n clean n even the door was sealed with a “cleaned room “ sticker...
after staying awhile felt thirsty n go to the table n get the packet of distilled water n found out it was left with almost 1/4 of water ... called up the housekeeper along the corridor n he said that he forgot to replace the packet left over from the previous stayer... it’s was unpleasant experience n what make me angry more is that no TOP management came n apologies for the mistake ... so nothing is safe in such phase yet. Be safe when going for staycations...

some real FR on fragrance hotel transit room. went there 2 times since fragrance had re-opened. transit is available. need to safe entry, take temp and the fill up a new form on health and travel history. price is the same as before.

both times i visited in the afternoon, so i cannot verify like what some bros had mentioned that after a certain time no transit room is available.

my partner is local. so i cannot verify if maids/ work permit holders etc need extra forms etc.

i think rooms could be limited. both times i was arranged to the same room!

Not all fragrance & H81 are opened for transit.
Call to check to avoid any disappointment.
Like on weekend or PH, need to fill Waiting List.

it is bylaw that the hotel needs to declare to guests that their hotel house SHN personnel

Confirmed bro. The actual legislation, written on STB's website, states this requirement. I have been to 3 H81's since they reopened, and all are requiring it. A new form has been specifically created to capture all the relevant detail.

I know the feeling of maids feeling uneasy,or even paranoid,of this new requirement. One of my maid gf's outright refused, so i booked an airbnb which she was happy with. Another agreed, but later told me how much it stressed her out, and she wont go to a hotel again. I am wondering if these requirements may ease under Phase 3
