A hostel is meant to be shared among all race, religion and nationality. By rejecting a singaporean is as good as discriminating my nationality. Having traveled to so many hostels in so many countries. It is totally illegal and unacceptable for discriminating the nationality of a guest. Try that anywhere else in a bar, restaurant, or hotels and certainly the authorities will not be satisfied to issue the licence for business. God made all equal. There is room for discrimination on earth irregardless of your religion, race or nationality. And you are free to patronise anywhere as long as i pay. That is the law of freedom.

Highly not recommended for first timers to Singapore. As there are many more choices of hostels in and around central tourist areas like chinatown, bugis, clark quay and boat quay. This hostel is far from the main action. Around there are some vietnamese restaurants. But lots of vietnamese girls parading the streets. Seems like looking for some quick cash near the pubs. Hostel is fairly old but much more efficiently run than other hostels that i stayed before. Everything you need in a hostel is provided except no towels. Breakfast is plain white bread only.

Good hostal overall, cheap, clean. toast and fruit for breakfast. Good commonroom with pool table, music and drinks.
Needs more bathrooms and they are 3 toilets and 4 showers for up to 34 people. It's a 20 min walk to the mrt or get the 33 bus so take 45-1hour into the city

I dont like neighborhood at night, others satisfied”
I booked here to explore East Coast, you can catch bus 33 and alight at Dakota station, nearest one. Do not walk to Payah Lebah, it's too far. Nothing special of this estate, except the staff quite nice. I also do not like the neighborhood at night, you will know why.
Overall, decent one.
