“ Great location and really cheap so it's worth the money. Showers are a little dirty but that's kind of normal for a hostel. ”

“ We generally enjoyed our stay at Backpackers SG. The place is not difficult to locate, and it is very accessible to the mrt. I was expecting that the bathrooms and toilet will be worse, but they were not. Cleanliness was maintained. The airconditioner at our room was very good. Overall, for those budget conscious travelers, I would recommend Backpackers, SG. ”

“ Overall it was a very positive stay, though what time you say you will be there actually doesn't matter if it's before 9am. I arrived at 7am and had to wait two hours before anyone was working the front desk. However, they tend to stay at the desk or living area for much of the day and are extremely helpful! the place was clean and pretty near to the lavender stop on the MRT. ”

“ I recommend this place, and I may visit here again. There's plenty of space around, very fast wifi (500-800 kbps at night!), shower gel dispenser on the bathroom wall (full), ample breakfast making things, it's quiet except for the air-conditioning overhead! ...but the lockers a wee bit small -you can't put a rucksack in there,and the lock is not much to trust in. and there's no airing area, so wet towels are in the dorm slung over the beds. ”

“ Hard to find hostel at night. Our room is small and has no windows. AC is weak. Wi-fi not working half of the time. Breakfast is basically toast and jam and instant coffee. Location is good, very close to MRT. Staffs are friendly though I could not find them a couple times. ”

“ Hostel was nice. It was kind of hard to find it first since it looked like it was in a warehouse but other than that, everything was great. Staff was friendly and helpful. The rooms were nice and cool with clean sheets. Great deal for singapore, highly recommend it. ”
