The location of the place was good ...other than that I wouldn’t recommend it . You get less than what you pay for .. They wouldn’t change sheets for my arrival nor clean towels were given . If you’re someone who likes clean spaces ,I wouldn’t recommend.

Kim, Manila, Philippines

Liked: Staff & service
Very ideal for travelers that are not very fussy
We are a family of 6 and pictures from Expedia and the place looks good. So we booked a room that fits us. Late check-in required us to pay additional 'full' day. The room is so small compared to the pictures, also the room smells like food (although there are food stalls downstairs, they should have fixed the ventilation). Beds are a little uncomfortable because it was deformed and not sure if linens are clean since there were stains, and the smell of the sheets are, let's say, doesn't smell like detergent. Overall, don't expect much. You can still consider this place if you are not that fussy with a place where you just want to sleep after a long day of being outside and exploring Singapore as a tourist.

Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities
Basic but well located
It was pretty basic and the showers down right scary and the wifi goes off when the staff go home (9pm - 7.30pm). But you are in an historic building, great street and little India. Also the most amazing vegan restaurant is just around the corner.

Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities
Budget accommodation, unhygienic bathrooms
The bathrooms need attention. They need a good scrub with disinfectant and to continue to be done on a daily basis. They often smelled of urine and the seats were often covered in urine as well (which also says something about the males staying in the hostel, but the staff should set the standard of cleanliness in the first place, and clean it more regularly. My companions and I shouldn't have to wipe down a seat every time we need to go to the toilet and half my companions were male!). Nearly all the toilet doors had an issue trying to open, close, or lock them. My companions and I only showered when absolutely necessary as we could not believe we would get clean in something so dirty. New fancy tiles will only get you so far - you have to actually clean them! Our rooms were also not very clean, there were thick piles of dust everywhere.
