  • There were bedbugs in my room (and I heared other people also complain about it). After 200 bites, I decided to find another place. Tip: ask the owner if he has done something about the bedbugs.

  • The staff is helpful, but I think the hygiene can be improved anyway. Desk in my room is worn out.

  • Stayed 4 nights in a single room. Very good and private environment. A bit noisy because of proximity of highway.

  • It wasn't the most pleasant hostel experience. The place is definitely a bit run down and the beds are not the most comfortable. Hot water was a bit scarce as well. The owner John is super nice though and extremely helpful. He speaks English so it is easy to communicate with him. The location is also right next to the MRT station so it's quite easy to get around and cab to and from. It's a suitable place if all you need is a place to crash for a night.
