Guest Reviews

• Efendy (4/5): - Satu satunya point lebih adalah lokasi yang sangat strategis sekali yang dekat dengan halte, mrt, dan restoran makanan. Selebihnya sangat sangat kurang sekali. Terutama untuk kamar keluarga. Apa yg kamu bayar, itu yang kamu dapat. Jangan harap lebih mengingat harga yg di tawarkan sudah termasuk murah sekali untuk ukuran negara Singapura.

• Ahsan (1/5): Save the misery, DO NOT BOOK. - nothing . NOTHING: just dont book this, do yourself a favour. book anything but here. the worst stay i have ever had of 50 countries i have been to. the place is extremely dirty, non maintained, old, unhygienic, just plain tacky and unbearable. dirty unmatched sheets and matresses, small, room , no windows, strict rude owners that live there and go around half naked. the place is just a milk cow for them. asked for en extra sheet for my baby, NO i didnt book for that. NEVER book here.

• Shandylyn (10/5): Everything is good. This is good for a family budget vacation looking for stay. - It’s good! Near the tourist spot, bus stop, train station of bugis. Also many food available around and the property is clean and wide. Good for family vacation. Also the AC is good so not so hot, and we have windows in our room. Nothing
• Haris (7/5): Very good option for budget travelers - Location was good and the staff was very cooperative and fulfill our request on top priority.
• Pearlie (8/5): Recommended 100% - Location is superb accessible to metro and other establishments, many restaurants nearby. Not that clean but its ok decent enough to stay

• Geange (1/5): I didn't stay, the bedding was filthy and bunk levels two high for me to get to with my Rhuematoid. - Location The place was filthy, and deteriorating. The room was not the one I booked in the picture on booking.com It was very small with no window and dark pealing plywood walls. Not paint as in the pictures. There was a 3 layer bunk set not the single bed as in the Pic. The toilets and showers were filthy. Only 2 and one had no door. No towels supplied and no toilet paper. I moved out the same afternoon I moved in. I have sent 2 complaints with no response. This is the third.

• Hồng (7/5): This small room is value money but should consider because toilet is not in the room and there is no other facilities -
• Nancy (4/5): Needs attention to cleaning this property! Staff nice, helpful and friendly - People were very friendly and nice. The lack of cleanliness
• Ed (7/5): Good -
• Bhattarai (7/5): Good -
• Geange (1/5): Bad - The Location was great It was filthy, the room was the size of a cupboard with peeling ply wood walls, no window, a stack of 3 bunk bed where the bottom bed was at floor level and the second in the stack to high to get on without a ladder. The photo in the add had what looked like freshly painted walls in a much larger room with a single bed. There was no where to sit at a desk, no toilet paper in the toilets and no towels for a shower. Actually, the 2 toilets and 2 showers were so filthy I wouldn't use them. Once I saw them an hour after checking in, I checked out and booked the Hotel Boss. I sent booking.com an email regarding the situation but have not heard anything back. Regrettably I left so quickly I never took photos.
• Έλλη (6/5): Pleasant -
• Gay (6/5): Pleasant -
• Anh (6/5): Pleasant -
• Nurmala (8/5): Very good -
• Maria (3/5): Poor - Central location Uncomfortable, beds, dirty rooms, old sheets which didn’t seem freshly washed, no towels provided, shared facilitets were unhygienic without toilet paper.
• Ma (8/5): Very good - Location, clean room, mini hawker centre below the guesthouse and plenty of restaurants nearby Bathrooms are ok but could use a little upgrade atleast.
• Agusta (8/5): Very good - The room so spacious but the Airconditioner need some maintenance since so dirty The bathroom not has same cleanliness.
• Mintu (10/5): Excellent Location! Easy transport! Right next to the location in & around you see a lot of pubs. - Location: 10/10 Stay: 7/10 (Since I stayed with family + I didn't feel comfortable) Staff: 8/10 (It's a 24-hour helpdesk kind of, so i met 3 of them of which 2 were helpful and 1 was Okay) Youngsters can definitely go for this accommodation as its right in the middle of the central Singapore. With Family it is difficult especially if you are travelling with your elderly parents. Please do your research before you could travel on what is your need and who are you travelling with. AC though it works, you don't feel it works because of the temperature in Singapore. I travelled in the month of May and its extremely hot and the room which is stayed didn't help me much.
• Eddy (10/5): Exceptional -
• Nikolett (5/5): Good location but dirty accommodation - The location is great. Right in the city center, close to many attractions and great restaurants. Airport is only a 15 minutes ride. Everything was dirty, full of dust. There were flies in the bathroom. They don’t give shower gel or shampoo, not even a towel, only one roll of toilet paper in your room. The receptionist didn’t even say hi to us and he didn’t seem welcoming at all. Compared to Singaporean prices this place was cheap but we were expecting a general cleaniness at least.
• David (3/5): Poor -
• John (10/5): Good, I recommend here - Very kind owner and staff.
• Muangkaew (10/5): Happy, nice , revisit of course - Everything , i'm not sure about the guy at receptionist , is he a owner or not but he is really nice , very polite and such a helpful guy. Thanks Ac is a little bit hot , but the rest is reasonable with price.
• Anastacio (10/5): Exceptional -
• Trung (5/5): One bed don't have bed sheet - Location, air condition work well. We are three people but they just give two towels. The last one come at the next day...
• Ange (10/5): A great spot for the budget traveller. - Great location in the middle of great transport, shopping and food options. Everything that mattered was provided - air conditioning and fan, spacious showers with good water pressure, secure door locks, luggage storage, helpful and friendly staff. Very cheap!!
• Anonymous (2/5): Very poor -
• Berit (10/5): Budget friendly! - The place is very clean Nothing
• Mauricio (4/5): Disappointing -
• Marvin (6/5): One or two Nights Max. For the Price totally fine - The room was very centrally located and perfectly fine for the price for one or two nights. The toilet and shower were totally okay. The room had no windows amd the ac was oke
• Rangajeewa (9/5): Superb -
• Shohel (9/5): Superb - Nice place Nice Environment Nice stuff Washroom facilities more
• Shohel (9/5): Superb -
• Kevin (3/5): Poor - The the location is great (next to Bugis mall and mrt) and the receptionist in the morning seemed quite friendly. Everything else. The comparison to a prison used in other reviews is spot on. Our room for the night had no windows and there was no furniture besides a very old bed (we could feel the individual springs in the mattress), a plastic stool and a table. Also, both the room, as well as the hallways and communal spaces were very dirty and felt very run down. If you can afford it, spend the additional €10-15 to stay anyplace else. If not, get ready for a prison experience.
• Alin (1/5): Bad -
• Filippo (6/5): Pleasant - Locatiom AC works well in the bedrooms but they should add A/C also in some common areas especially in the toilets bc it gets so warm in there that you can feel unwell if you have to stay there for more than 5 mins..
• Shakil (5/5): Excellent location but the place it self is dated - Location Too cramped
• Rebecca (6/5): Pleasant - Great location! Staff we interacted with were all very nice Were informed upon arrival the accommodation will be completely closing soon, may explain the poor upkeep of facilities. Battery operated door lock kept alarming, dirty showers. Could not operate ceiling fan if you turned the light out
• Marko (8/5): Very good -
• Moshe (10/5): The most comfortable beds in south east Asia. Reception is a bit dusty - The most comfortable beds in south east Asia Dust
• Manilyn (7/5): Good -
• Ji (5/5): Passable -
• Boughton (7/5): Good - Basic hostel - you get what you pay for! The room was quite small and didn’t have any windows, but it was good enough for sleeping in and then spending the whole day out. The showers and toilets are shared and not particularly clean, but they always had hot water and decent water pressure. The hostel does the job for a few days if you’re comfortable with the shared facilities etc.
• Anjunel (8/5): Very good -
• Lanny (9/5): Thank you for the stay, the place was clean and has an approachable staffp - Bigger space and easy to deal with Alinga None
• Janka (10/5): Pretty clean and right in the city centre - I liked the cleanliness of the room and bedsheets. The bathroom and toilet area was clean the first day, but the second day already not much I would add some more facilities in the room and bathroom area like shelves where you can put your things or hang a towel and put your cosmetics, toothpaste when you go to brush your teeth. No place to put the things
• Thomas (5/5): Nice location, cheap stay but poor cleanliness in room and toilets - The location is nice. We could leave our luggage for some hours until our next flight The room and toilets were dirty and the was just one electrical socket for 4 people.
• Inayodhya (8/5): Very good -
• Gladys (8/5): Value for money - Near mrt Nothing
• Jacob (8/5): Very good -
• Pankaja (7/5): Good - Perfect place for group of friends who would like to travel all day and seeking for a low budget place to stay at night. Staff was very friendly. Perfect location in the heart of the city. All the transport methods are accessible within few minutes.
• Randy (8/5): Very good - I like that restaurants and food stalls are just around the area. The staff are accommodating and communicate well in english. The stairs proved to be very difficult for the elderly.
• Maria (7/5): Good - Good location and cheap
• Annika (8/5): Very good -
• Nadia (3/5): Would not recommend to stay there, ugly, no basic comfort inside - - Location is good, we could walk within 30 mins to the city center. - Cheaper than others, but I wish to know about all disadvantages and just pay 10 pounds more / night for IBIS which is a hotel - I found this place clean, cleaning is done often Everything else. Looks like prison inside. Place requires renovation. - No towels. - No blanket apart from the one which is VERY small (like 1x1.5m, so useless), so we used our clothes to cover ourselves.... why is it difficult to buy basic linens? - no basic furniture (like where to put clothes / stuff) - Even no bin in the room, you need to ask for a trash bag at the reception and use it as a bin. Why is it so difficult to just buy a bin for a few dollars? - extremely hard pillow, I couldn't use it, slept on my hoodie - very hard and uncomfortable bed which is covered with Polyethylene / plastic, so when you sleep it's making a noise, and it's very hot from it. - Place / room inside looks ugly as cage. We really tried to be there as little as possible, leaving 8am, coming back at 9-10pm, as you feel depressed there After 3 weeks travelling in SEA, in different guesthouses and places, it's just the worst, don't understand the rating...
• Lauren (2/5): An uncomfortable and unpleasant stay. - Excellent location. I don’t understand how the rating for this place is so high. It wasn’t comfortable - we didn’t have one half decent nights sleep. There wasn’t a duvet, rather a thin, bobbly blanket. The showers also often smelt of urine and the toilets were constantly soaked.
• Christos (5/5): Passable - Polite staff. Nice location and close to mrt. Safe area close to bus station . Lastly cool bedroom. No windows old facilities and small rooms.
• Bruno (10/5): Exceptional - convenience, check-in, location, staff, overall experience
• Champaka (8/5): The owner is veryyyy amazing, generous also. So do the staff Pak Ruslan! - Owner, staff and location are SUPEEEER EXCLNT!!! Condition of homestay need re-building, in my opinion :D *I have asthma by the way, and this old building is supergreat history
• Thanh (8/5): Very good -
• Aguaviva (10/5): Very Convenient - near the city center and train just the Rest Room, it’s common and outside your room but still okay since it’s quite and not that crowded.
• Laarni (8/5): Very good - best budget accommodation in Bugis area
• Sam (8/5): Great for sleep. - Spider webs in our room.
• Lailani (9/5): Superb -
• Edenel (9/5): Superb -
• Danilo (10/5): Perfect location, and value for money - Location, was close to everything, even to the Marina Sands Bay Hotel and Merlion You will share the bathroom
• Torres (9/5): Superb -
• Giovanni (10/5): Exceptional - All good, great location.
• Salome (5/5): Passable -
• Azucena (7/5): Good -
• Do (8/5): Good location - Good location, However, the equipment in the room is very old. Compared to the expensive price in Singapore, I can accept it.
• Doris (10/5): Exceptional - Location. Towels.
• Sarah (6/5): Ok for a cheap price and a short stay. - The location is great. The room is very small and it is difficult to fit all the luggage. The staff is quite unfriendly. The WiFi is absolutely awful. The showers are a good temperature. They really heavily water down the soap at the sink so every time you try to wash your hands you have to pump the soap like 10 times before you get enough soap to actually sanitise your hands.
• Mary (3/5): The room space is okay, Average stay - but will not go back again - Location is excellent The bathroom smells like urine and stale odors, as if it's not being cleaned with soap and bleach. I recommend renovating the bathroom because it's important for maintaining cleanliness and hygiene. The location is excellent, but if you prioritize personal hygiene, this hotel is not recommended as the bathroom is uncomfortable. We had a great stay, and the room space is okay, but there aren’t enough sockets for charging. There are four of us, but only one chair, and there’s no warm water, only hot. It’s not comfortable eating in the pantry area. The bathroom is old and smells like urine, and there’s no place to store bathroom essentials inside.
• Eddy (6/5): Pleasant -
• Yong (6/5): Pleasant -
• Fabian (10/5): Great place at Singapore - Amazing location. Not the best bathrooms
