positive:
Great staff, smartphones a very nice touch
The reception team at this Singapore hostel is nothing but helpful and attentive. While they are certainly keen to share a laugh and a chat with newcomers, they also appear to be quick to offer assistance as and when needed. In particular, guests with early morning flights commented that the team here also more than willing to call and book taxis for those in need.Also, this property offers newcomers 4G-enabled smart phones with a free international call plan. This was a very nice touch.
positive:
Modern look and comfy beds

Negative Reviews
negative:
Noise from groups is problematic
This property was incredibly popular with school and sports groups. However, this meant that noise was a major issue here for solo travellers, many of whom reported being bothered by corridor noise into the early hours of the morning.
negative:
Dirty toilets, better breakfast, weak Wi-Fi
In terms of cleanliness, this property's bathrooms and toilets were a real disappointment. Many commented negatively on the filthy and neglected appearance of these facilities. Guests were also left disappointed by the limited breakfast options and weak Wi-Fi service here.
negative:
Lack of luggage space
Guests were annoyed by a curious lack of luggage space in rooms here. Many bunks had luggage racks/storage areas, but most - and especially those with lots of bags - found these to be insufficient for their baggage.
