Although there were renovations of a neighboring business ongoing during my stay, the noise did not occur during quiet hours and the rooms were spacious and comfortable, with restaurants, bars and shopping barely a stone throws away in the lively surroundings of the China town district.

Dirty beddings

Very dirty beddings and washrooms. We found layers and layers of different people’s hair on our beddings. It was in a good location if you are fun loving and if you enjoy going out at night for a drink and a bite.

Clean place to stay

Stayed one night after attending a wedding. Plus point is the beds sligjter bigger than a single and my area had two plug points. Heater and toilets all work. Airconditioning was good. Check in was well thought off and it works automatically. Downside is I did experience noise up to 3 AM from the downstairs pub area..only a problem if ur a light sleeper otherwise not an issue. Would i stay again..yes..for a hostel where everything works why not

8/10 Very good

I have been to this Hostel recently and am happy to have stayed again. In the last few months since I last visited, the work that was going on has been completed and the changes are fantastic, the e check-in/out was simple to use, the new common room/ reception is open and bright and the new code access for the dorms require no card that could be lost. The area is directly in an area with bustling nightlife, filled to the brim with excellent choices for food and drink. The area is loud, but the dorm areas were relatively quiet, all but the lightest sleepers will have no issues dosing of in the comfortable beds. I did have issues using and getting the code to my rooms safe, but the staff were able to to help me, remember to check you have both the dorm code, your safe code AND how to operate it. Would definitely recommend here if you want something cheap and cheerful!

4/10 Fair

Definitely very outdated and did not look like the pictures. The curtain for my bed looked moldy, there was definitely some sketchy spot on them. The bathroom was also not the cleanest of hostels that I’ve stayed at. I did have an issue checking in, so I had to wait for about 30 mins until I got a response via the chat to get checked in and access the room since there no front desk staff. To be honest I only saw one staff member during my entire 4 night stay, and it was the person who came to clean the bathroom in the late morning. One thing I’ll say is that the location was nice. Especially if you like to go out to bars or late night food. Boat Quay is a great area.
