I booked the hotel for a solo staycation with the hotel. However, upon arriving, we were told there were problems with the key machine. As such, i don’t have a key to room and will have to trouble their staff to open the door. That being said, the staffs were amazing and assisted me as and when i need to open the door. Aside from that, it was a great experience, nice decor and overall, a pleasant stay.

Been here a few times, booked different types of rooms as well. Overall cleanliness/hygiene varied throughout our different stays. Walls are a little thin, you can hear if your neighbours are talking loudly, or noises from the common corridor. Otherwise, would say that it's usually good value for money

Great as a homebase in exploring Singapore”

First, note that Google Maps is wrong - the closest MRT is not Jalan Besar stn, but Rochor stn. Second, the hostel room is great, big & very comfy bed - but the door lock is rather flimsy. My daughters used their luggage as the door barricade at night. Third, the balcony room is as advertised, but at night you can hear people chatting outside, turned out next door is a bar, and one time it blasts loud indian music until 1 am. We slept like dead due to extreme tiredness from exploring the city all day, but others might not. You might want to ask for other room instead , for example the sound from outside does not reach the hostel rooms.
