    They asked for a deposit for a key, and there was no communal area - no social vibe at all.

    The location was good.

    Overall, it was okay. I had a good bed, and the AC was really cool.

    The lobby where there are chairs and tables advertised are not owned by the hostel, so you cannot sit with your laptop there during the daytime when the restaurant is open or else, you will be forced to order food/drinks just so you could sit there. I had to do my stuff late at night because of this situation. I hope they had their own lobby to accommodate their guests who would like to stay outside their rooms sometimes. There was also this one Korean man who caused trouble in our room by opening each bed's curtains without permission. Very rude and looks like a pervert walking almost naked in the area.

    I like that it's located near a 7-Eleven convenience store so I could easily buy something that I need without going to far, and then the bus stop is also just around 500 meters away from the hostel, and then the nearest MRT station was Jalan Besar station, so moving around Singapore was super easy by bus and train. Staff were nice and accommodating. They reminded people to checkout because some people tend to forget that they already have to checkout hehe. The bed I had was comfortable, and the AC was superb. I liked the AC and it was working well so I had a good sleep every time. AC is very important to me because it's very hot outside in Singapore. The hot and cold shower was also working well.

    The bed is a little cramp, would be good if it’s wider. It’s a decent stay.

    Conveniently located. Near Farrer Park MRT and Rochor MRT. Lots of eateries around.

    you need to pay $10 for usage of the washing machine and dryer and they have only one of each situated on the rooftop. a deposit of $50 is required upon check in. Cleanliness wise is passable, water pressure in the shower is a bit too low for my liking so i used the tap inside the shower to wash my head. Prospective travellers need to understand they also act as a dorm for foreign workers but they have their own rooms to sleep in. Only one charging port at my bed. Would be a plus if they can set the check out timing to 12pm instead of 11am

    Location. nearby Jalan Besar MRT and a hawker centre within walking distance. Sim Lim Square, Plaza Singapura all nearby. Friendly staff.

    Crazy deposit of 100$ which is 4 times my room price. Plus indian staff looks racist towards me (another indian). Worst hospitality. Indonesian staff the next day was atleast better behaved. Charge for keeping luggage the next chkout day is pathetic, first hostel demanding this in the world now. Bathroom is real dirty, people goto nearby gym to avoid bathroom of hostel., cockroaches in room, heard bad stories of workers making mess from others staying. Ran away after one night.

    Location is good and close to little india shops

    They demanded extra 50 dollars for a deposit and said that it would be returned to our account in a few weeks. As backpackers, that kind of money is not to be loaned anywhere, and in any other hostel you get the deposit back when you check out.

    This is more a worker's hostel than anything else. No social vibe. Most of the peop'e wake up around 5 to 8 to go to work so be prepared to hear a lot of alarms. The dorm smells horrible because people literally eat whole meals inside their beds. The sheets were dirty, lots of black hair on it. Most of the people are men, and some are very old. Most of them snore like crazy. Indeed the bathroom is really dirty, nobody flush the toilets. My locker didn't work. It's one of the worst hostel I've stayed in. Only the staff was nice but otherwise you should definitely book somewhere else if you're looking for a real hostel.

    Very good location. Helpful staff.
