Disliked: Staff & service, room comfort
I understand that the check - in process is all digital for convenience but it helps to have a reception desk at least. The room does not look like it's in the picture. I got a room in the attic, no privacy curtains either. just a large room with a lot of beds. A lot of stairs to go up. also unisex bathroom on our floor made it a little uncomfortable.
It was ok experience. Right across from the china town subway station though. which is a plus point.
We stayed at the hostel for five days. First of all, the room is extremely small and the bunk bed is VERY VERY wobbly. Every move will shake the bed like crazy. It felt very unsafe. And the bedsheets were dirty with some hair left on it. The shower situation is the worst tho. They claimed they provide hot water but you can only feel the hot water for one second and you can never have any hot water. we had many cold showers there and therefore caught a cold. The staff is alright. But when you NEED something, they are never there. We had a fire evacuation situation during our stay and the staff were NOT HELPFUL AT ALL. The room was full of smoked smell so they finally offered to relocate us to another place. Yet, they asked us to return in the same morning (which means we only get to stay in the new place for a few hours before moving back). The staff couldn’t answered basic questions like when can they confirm us about the room situations or what’s their policy. They kept saying “i hope you can understand” but not being helpful at all. Even though at the end they finally offered us to stay at the new place and no need to change back to our smelly old room, they asked us to change to another room again after we moved. So that means we moved to three different rooms in one trip because of their poor management. For the price of the room, I believe the service should be better than what we experienced. If you choose to stay here, think wisely

à éviter
je déconseille cet endroit, qui est proche d'une cage sans fenêtre, 2 lits superposés, aucune place pour les valises très grosses, pas de penderie ni rien pour poser ses affaires, accueil inexistant, c'est une machine avec laquelle vous devez faire le check in et le check out, les toilettes et douches n'ont pas de fenêtre, donc chaleur d'enfer genre four, le petit déjeuner est déplorable, du café 3 en 1 (sucre et lait) infect, pas de thé, des gobelets en plastic, et des toasts avec de la confiture très bon marché

The hostel is very close to MRT ChinaTown station and the staff are so nice and helpful. Free breakfast and hot drink (Coffee and cereal) each morning.
The hostel is very close to MRT station (ChinaTowm NE4, Exit A) and the staff are so friendly and helpful. But you need to use the machine to check in by yourself is a little difficult to navigate.
I used to stay with 5footway. Facilities and atmosphere are at the same standard.
This time, I just used the check-in machine and it's difficult to use.
The booking number from Expedia did not work with the machine. I have to call staff. They should send us the real booking number (to key in the machine).
Also, found some un-convenient with the machine.
The hostel has a location that is hard to beat. I have been staying there for several years now but recently they have made a few changes that make the stay a little less pleasant. The main ones being the lack of kitchen facilities (like a fridge or plates or even cups) and lack of bag storage. A secondary one is the automated check in system that seems to cause more problems than it solves. While I was there most people using the system had to call for help at least once if not multiple times.
It is still a great place to stay but these little things do detract from the overall experience.
- There's no specific men's for shower room and toilet, there is one women shower room while men is none. Women come to use shower room on upper floor for full while the one which provide for women on below is no usage and men couldn't go in because it's for women.
- The price for washing and laundry is too expensive
$10 non-refundable for a second room key is a bit much. We stayed with my mother in law who is 83 and there isn’t any mention of restricted access. This place would appeal to young folks who are hosteling in Singapore. Check in was a pain!
