Ms Ivy is a very professional (which means a strict ) Lady but super Kind and Helpful , she is taking a Great care of all of us here and wanted to expose this personal attack on her as a utterly absurd and ridiculous Lies !

    AWESOME! Affordable. Just the rowdy gathering at lobby and security at the room. ”

    Super affordable and wonderful staff. all is great. you even will get free breakfast. Local is great. Main non-halal food. Not so much for the muslims though. There is a halal Chinese noodle shop across - wasnt that great and pricey. Bad customer service from the China ladies. LRT is just at the corner.. less than 3mins walk. Toilets - CLEAN. Good shower. The hostel can be easily missed. Steep staircase. 2 comments is the noise level. Its just a sliding wooden door. Security could be an issue. And we have some ang mohs laughing and talking till wee morning. Super loud and disturbing. Hope the staff can at least give them a NOTE to lower down their volume or put a sign no loud gatherings after 11pm. As i mentioned, the door was just a sliding one. Most of the rooms are just next to the lobby. 2nd would be the air circulation. the fan was high up .. and it was only pointed up to the top. Air con wasnt strong. So abit stuffy. Location is just across to MINGLE hostel.
