Pros:

The hostel has a perfect location to explore the city by foot or by metro. The sleeping "capsule" was very comfortable and provided privacy.

Cons:

The toilets are in the same room as the showers are which meant they were wet most of the time. In addition the breakfast was just a littke self service table with toast, jam and milk. Not bad, but also not really a full breakfast either. Since we're not big breakfast persons this didn't really bother us though :)

Pros:

Sehr gute, zentrale Lage. Man kann sehr viel zu Fuß erkunden, aber auch die nächste Metro ist nur wenige Minuten entfernt. Die Mitarbeiter waren sehr freundlich! Das Zimmer wurde jeden Tag gereinigt.

Cons:

Bei unserem Bett war die Matratze komplett durchgelegen (man lag quasi nur noch auf einem Brett). Auf Nachfrage und bitte die Matratze zu tauschen, wurde diese aber lediglich gedreht, was zu keiner Besserung führte. Im Zimmer gibt es weder einen Schrank noch irgendeine Möglichkeit etwas abzulegen.
Das Frühstück kann man nicht Frühstück nennen! Es gibt Cornflakes und Toast mit ungenießbarer Marmelade.
Wenn man wirklich nur etwas zum Schlafen sucht ist es für ein paar Tage o.k.

Good value for money
Pros:

The location was good, great for exploring Chinatown but also not too far a walk from Marina Bay, equally handy for public transport too. Room did what it said it would, the bed was comfy. Value and comfortable budget accomodation.

Cons:

Pods were a little hot, even with the aircon. Would have been good to have a shelf or something to store smaller items on

Cons:

Habitaciones muy pequeñas, muy calurosas
El desayuno además de muy muy justo de calidad no había casi sitio ni para sentarse, y una de los dos días lo tuvimos que hacer de pie
Hay que fregar los utensilios cada uno del desayuno
