What visitors say

★★★★★

“Hostel is affordable for solo traveler! A bit far from most of the tourist spots, but near MRT and bus stop. Check in and check out was super easy. Just fill in the form, and grab the locker key. Although the stairs/ladder to the top bunk bed was a bit slippery and a bit hard to climb up and down. Gotta be careful with that. 2 small bathrooms and 3 toilets with bidets, nice. Kitchen and dining area a bit cramped, but still good to have meals there, minus there were not enough utensil (spoon/fork, etc). Just microwave and electric kettle. There were no water dispenser too, gotta buy it from outside. Overall still good for a solo traveler in a budge”

“Lovely hostel for the price we paid, staff were very kind and helpful and the bed were cosy. The female dorm room didn’t lock which was the only fault - apart from that all was clean and safe :)”

“Arrived at midnight just for an overnight stay.. There were no receptionist already. Check-in was a hassle on my part, instructions weren't clear. But check-out was a breeze already. Toilet has no toilet papers. Shower's space was really small. I did not take shower there and just left to the airport to take a shower there. I literally just stayed to sleep coz bed was comfortable. That's it. Also, there was a time when I felt uncomfortable listening to the staff and idk maybe it's a guest..they were teaching each other Chinese words and they chose a word relating to a woman's private part. I'm not Chinese but I understand Chinese, which explains why i can understand them but I just chose to look like an ignorant but it really was uncomfortable listening to them. Imagine saying that infront of a woman and an old Chinese lady. The old lady went from there immediately. I also left to the airport after that because I was pissed off hearing their perverted talks. Will never stay here again.”

“Perfect for Solo Concert-Goers (National Stadium) ​I stayed here specifically for a concert at the National Stadium, and for that purpose, the location is unbeatable. It’s a literal 10-minute walk to the venue, which is a lifesaver when the show ends late and you want to avoid the nightmare of MRT crowds or surge pricing on Grab. As a solo traveler, I felt very safe—the walkway is well-lit and there are police CCTVs along the route. ​The Good: ​Privacy & Peace: I was pleasantly surprised by how quiet it was. Everyone was very respectful of the "quiet zone" rules. ​Comfort: I had an upper bed and found the mattress and pillow really comfortable. The AC temperature inside the capsule was perfect—not stuffy at all. ​Self-Service: As an introvert, I loved the fully self-check-in/out process. They send you a link, and you just do your thing. No awkward small talk required! ​The Not-So-Good: ​Tight Bathrooms: The bathrooms are quite small. They were clean enough for a shared space, but the cramped layout was a bit of a downside. ​Amenities: There is no drinking water station provided. You’ll need to buy your own water and snacks from outside (though Foodpanda delivers here easily). ​Luggage Space: Each guest gets a locker, which fits a backpack or a small cabin-size suitcase perfectly. However, if you have a large suitcase, you might have to keep it near your bed, which isn't very convenient. ​Bottom Line: If you are coming to Singapore for a show at the Sports Hub and just need a safe, comfortable, and quiet place to crash without worrying about transport, this is a solid 10/10 choice.”
