The room was clean, place is closer to a lot of attractions, the staff is super helpful, I had a late night departure and they even let me stay & use shower even when I checked out.
Great place to stay on a budget! Very modest accommodations, but clean, well maintained, and the staff is fantastic! Convenient Chinatown location too.

Staff very friendly and helpful. The place is very clean and confortable. However the building where the hostal is located is not clean, the stairs need to be cleaned.
Pros: Centrally located, close to amenities, train station and bus stops. Place is clean and affordable launderette.
Cons: Located at 4th floors without lift so may need to consider if you have big and heavy luggage. Check-in time is limited to stipulated couple of hours so do check your arrival time. Air-condition to the room are also in stipulated time, from evening to mornings only. Luggage storage is only available on day of check in/out, beyond that it's chargable.
Great stay for solo travelers on a budget, only critique i would have is they turn off a/c units during the day in rooms ,if power consumption is the reason i would adjust prices to balance cost,great staff though
You can drop your baggage there even after checking out, so you can have a nice day exploring singapkre before your flight. Also, they provide bread and jam as their free breakfast. It's from 6-12pm. Anyway, free drinks are available whole day. For me, it has no difference between 14 people room and 10 people room, so I suggest traveller to book for 14 people room to save cost.
Not only rooms and theother facilities such as toilets and showers but also the employee just suck.
She seemed to complain everything in her life and therefore be angry at people for a diversion.
Saw roaches crawling on my bed the first hour I was there. I didn’t sleep in my bed the first night. Requested a sheet & pillow change and she did. Kept my lights on 24/7 & sprayed bug spray on my bed to prevent anything else from crawling on there.

Great location. Across from Clark Quay metr Center
Location fantastic. Clarke Quay MRT 5 min. Walk to Clarke Quay dancing and clubs. 6-8 minutes. Safe even 2 am. Walk to Chinatown. Walk to Raffles place and MRT 10 min. Service was ok. Must enter bare feet. Not even with slippers but socks ok. Breakfast mainly bread and jam or with a banana. PC Internet available and good. Sinks are in breakfast/function room so no privacy. Overall because of location nothing else beats it for price and I will stay there again.The closest capsule/pods hostels are almost double cost and Boat Quay location is not as convenient. Visit Gardens by the Bay, light show is amazing, direct Lavender MRT line. And near it the Marina Sands Mall dancing fountains is spectacular.
Ich mochte den Aufenthalt dort. Mit Navi konnte man es leicht finden. Einfach an der grünen Station Raffles Place aussteigen und am Fluss entlang gehen. Die Räume sind sauber, und sehr kühl. Es riecht einwenig modrig, aber schimmel hatte ich keinen gesehen. Unisex Toiletten und Duschkabinen. Alles ist sehr gemeinschaftlich, also hat man die meiste Privatsphäre im Zimmer, auf seinem Bett mit Vorhang. Die Bettnummer wird dir gezeigt, und es gibt ein extra Schuhfach, da innen keine Schuhe getragen werden, und Badeslipper im Bad Bereich.
Clean cozy little hostel. Free breakfast and decent beds. The wifi is super slow and doesn't really reach the further rooms. Probably the only downside. Also FYI, there isn't a lift up to their level (4th floor)
