Very close to the Boon Keng MRT station

Stayed for 2 Nights here. Reasonably priced hostel and it is close to Boon Keng MRT station and 7-11. There are some problems with the air conditioner though in the room though. It only has two bathroom so be prepared to wait for a while if you want to take a bath or use the toilet. They also provide toasts as breakfast in the morning, but you need to wash your plate and cups yourself after eating. The place need some extra cleaning especially the lounge room.

Great stay and friendly staff

Me and my partner booked this hostel online after struggling to find cheap accommodation in Singapore, we were dubious about the stay considering it was the cheapest place we stayed, however when we arrived we loved it. The hostel its self was very clean and kept up to (minus the bathroom on a few occasions but that's expected in a hostel), the wifi was excellent, the staff were really friendly and helped us out with any queries we had in regards to sightseeing and travelling around, the breakfast was also great toast with tea and coffee and a choice of Nutella, peanut butter and jam, we also got lucky with our room mates until the last night of a 5 night stay when a snorer entered the room. Other than this the stay was great. The hostel is also located perfectly with an mrt a 5 minute walk awake and a lovely restaraunt just next door. Would definately return here.

Worst stay in asia

My girlfriend and I have been backpacking through asia for some time now, we have been in poor villages and huge cities, but never have we had a hostel where staff came walking in and out of the dorm until 03:00 AM!! Not one night, not two but three nights in a row! I think they were handling check ins in the room but im not sure. We were not lucky with our room mates either but it would help if the hostel made it a rule to be quiet in the dorms after 11 or so.

When I suggested this I was told this was impossible to enforce, when I told him I had seen hostels trice as big enforce it without a problem he just shrugged.

All in all we got about 20 hours of sleep during our 4 nights there.

The nutella at breakfast was great.

Good!

Spent 3 days 2 nights staying on this hostel for a short vacation to Singapore. It's really good for backpackers and low budget travelers. Sharing rooms with bunk beds. You can go to Mustafa to buy gifts with cheaper price, near City Square mall, little india, 15 mins walk to Lavender station to take MRT (east west) or 5 mins to Bon Keng station (north west).

Great hostel, friendly staff near bon keng mrt station and 5 minute wall from city square mall and mustafa center but difficult to find halal food nearby so you must walk to little India to find one, all day coffee and tea
