Money should always be a consideration when making decisions. Here's the breakdown of the total cost spent in the 6 days 6 nights. I have omitted the last day food because we didn't really follow the plan.
Accomodation for 6 nights:
2 x 133.50 + 87 + 140 + 190 + 164 = 848
Food for 6 days:
10+70+40+10+13+70+4+20+20+6+10+2+40+25+14+80+20+5=459
Activities:
105 (megazip) + 40 (photos) + 130 (USS tickets) = 275
Random snacks and drinks:
20
Total cost = 848 + 459 + 275 + 20 = SGD $1602
Our budget: $1500. And we did it cause we actually have season pass for USS and hence we saved on the tickets :)
It's really expensive to stay in Singapore; costing half of the total price. The food price can actually be much lower if you eat simpler and skip the desserts unless us :P drinks are expensive too. Coffee, beer or soft drinks at restaurants can be avoided to save costs. The activities are also quite expensive. Look for bundles if possible; sometimes Sentosa has packages and cheaper to buy a few items that you're interested in.
Accommodation:
Day 1 and 2:
Keppel bay area Airbnb. Look for Scott. The place is clean, the condo has a kick ass swimming pool with a view! The owner has a cat though if you're allergic to animals. Private lift to the apartment. 5/5

Day 3:
Genting hotel Jurong.
Nice clean place! The most expensive accommodation of the trip. But couldn't find any reliable Airbnb in the area. Burst my front wheel cycling into the carpark. 4/5
Day 4:
Woodlands dahan road Airbnb. Look for Tina. She has many experience with Airbnb and is really a good host with good recommendations of the area. Really spacious and beautiful quiet place to stay. 5/5
Oops no photo was taken but the Airbnb photo is exactly what you get! It's super duper spacious really :)
Day 5:
Rivervale area Airbnb. The host is quite careful but gives you a room with full privacy and many facilities like kitchen and washing machine. Couldn't park my bicycle at the place and had to leave it at the public area. Last minute booking cause the previous host didn't respond. 4/5

Day 6:
Raintr33 hotel. Quiet little place with a good restaurant to eat nearby. Away from the crowded Changi Village. Clean and spacious. Quite a unique layout of toilet and basin with private balcony. 5/5
Maps:
These are the google maps with intended routes and places of interest that I visited or near the area. The Strava data from each day contains the actual routes taken, it's not too far from the intended routes :)
Read the description for food places and accommodations as well as optional places to visit near the areas.
The first map goes from Bedok to Keppel to Jurong to Woodlands to Punggol.
