OH, AND OWNER GIVES FREE 500MB SIM CARD.… It’s a hostel so don’t expect it to be top notch but we’re okay with it since we are out the whole day. Breakfast is coffee and toast with peanut butter, jam, and butter. Very accessible to cheap local food as well hotel 1.5L water is cheap. We did DIY walking tours in the 3 early mornings to Mustafa, Tekka Centre, Kampong Glam, Haji Lane, and Bugis. Location is exceptional as it is smack in the middle of Jalan Besar (via Upper Weld Road) and Rochor Stations (Turn right to Perak St and the MRT is there!). We'd rather spend SGD120 (5D/4N) we saved for food. Room needs improvement on cleanliness (smells musty there's an exhaust but not as enough) but we're out the whole day and for its price, THIS IS A STEAL. We have 5 dual electrical outlets in our room for 4 people. Sockets everywhere so no problem charging phones/laptops. Trash emptied every day but bathroom tissue not replenished. Their blankets have seen better days though (they look more like towels, the one I got) sheets changed once in 5 days. Bathroom is good enough w/ working heater. Not the cleanest cabinet, if you are particular. It's spacious, with mirror and cabinet for things. We stayed in a family room in the 1st floor, no window room though but 1 queen bed and 1 double deck. It's not as clean as hotels but it's better than what most reviews portray it to be. BIG CHECK ON PRIVATE BATHROOM, we prefer private bathrooms than common ones. They didn't get any new simcards and the existing ones were expired.…īooked this budget-friendly HOSTEL w/ private bathroom for 4pax. SIMCARD - The hostel says they would provide a simcard to use during your stay. There is a huge musty smell throughout the place from the lack of ventilation. Not much space to put your belongings in the bathroom to avoid getting soaked. There were used shampoo bottles and garbage from previous guests in the room and bathroom floor the whole time I was there. The bathroom was "cleaned" every two days. Fortunately, the sheets, pillows, and blanket looked and smelled clean. CLEANLINESS - Given that there is a major rat problem here, you should be careful everywhere. He just smiled at me and said nothing because there were other people who came in to check in. I brought it up to the front desk (who I'm guessing is the owner/manager) when I checked out in the morning that there was a pest problem. At least five or more fought over the food all night long. I found out that they were actually attacking my bag and made a gaping hole, I threw the snacks into the waste bin, which they then later started attacking. PESTS - On the last night, I found that there is a pretty serious rat infestation. I highly recommend renting a locker to be safe from pests and theft. I ended up hanging my wet towel and sweaty clothes on my bed frame and posts. Here are a few major things to complain about: SPACE - Not much place for you to put your things in such a small space just a small shelf and a couple hooks if they aren't broken.

My half consisted of 6 beds, two fans, and a half-decent air conditioner. The room is divided into two, so each half shares a bathroom. I stayed in the Attic storey, which was on the 3rd floor. The only value from this place is the close proximity to a few MRT lines and Bugis area. I stayed there for 4 nights and it was a mistake.
