After sharing about my TMC's hospital tour in an earlier entry, let me share my experience at Mt Alvernia.
After reading all the reviews on Mt Alvernia, I was quite determined to choose Mt Alvernia. Almost all the reviews I read are positive and full of praises (unlike the reviews for TMC which are mixed with alot of complaints and rants). One of the most common "negative" comment about Mt A that I read about is its alot more dated, which I'm fine with since its just a 2 nights' stay.
Parking is alot easier compared to TMC. However, I have a very bad feeling once I stepped out of the car. Probably due to my sensitive nature (I'm very sensitive to energy), and energy in hospitals are generally alot more negative. If you want to know what kind of bad feeling I felt, I just felt uncomfortable and scared. =/
The gathering point is at the main lobby, patient liaison center. The guide (can't remember her name again) is really patient in answering our questions. But I feel overall, information shared is alot lacking unless we asked. If I didn't do some research online before hand, and I havent been to TMC's hospital tour the week before, I probably won't have all the questions that I'm asking, and dunno what I dunno.
We were brought to see the different rooms, and like what most people shared, it's pretty dated. Some rooms are more dated than the others (which have been refurbished) though the rates are all the same. We also cannot pre-book the rooms. so it's a matter of luck when you're admitted. :)
The goodie bag they gave is pretty attractive. Lots of samples and stuffs, There Anmum Lacta (for breastfeeding mummy), Huggies wet wipes, Huggies newborn diapers, Kodomo samples, lots of random coupons, and they even give us a drink coupon at the cafe after the tour.
After going on the hospital tour of Mt A and TMC, I can't decide. If only this is as easy as choosing hotels (just read the reviews on tripadvisor and decide!). If I based on reviews, TMC is definitely out, and Mt A is the one. BUT, based on personal feelings, I'm more incline towards TMC. I just feels weird with Mt Alvernia.
Decisions, decisions, decisions. Maybe I should just let the cost decide.
