Pros:

Bien situado en China Town. Hay desayuno básico pero bien.

Cons:

Habitación pequeña con las literas cápsula y el baño. Son cómodas. Para un par de noches ok. Las paredes necesitan una reforma.

Pros:

La ubicación en Chinatouw era lo mejor y la cama muy cómoda

Cons:

El desayuno muy básico, tenias que limpiar lo que usabas despues, nos toco último piso que era un tercero sin ascensor y tener que subir con las maletas y cada vez que querías subir con wl calor de Singapur era algo agobiante

Bien
Pros:

Buen precio y buena ubicación.

Cons:

No había ninguna silla ni nada para dejar algo apoyado. Éramos 4, y si estábamos los 4 en la habitación solo podían estar sentados 2 en una cama, o 3 si otro se subía a sentar a la litera.

Pros:

+ sehr gute Lage in Chinatown (zu Fuß zum Merlion in 20 min), abends günstiges Essen in Chinatown in der direkten Umgebung möglich
+ Zimmer war sauber
+ Zimmer mit eigenem Bad

Cons:

- Frühstück inklusive, aber nicht genießbar. Schon alleine, dass alle ihr Geschirr unterm Wasser selbst schwenken und der nächste dann daraus essen/trinken soll, hat uns den Appetit genommen, dazu Leute die sich nebenan im Gemeinschaftsbad rasieren, alle barfuß (hunderte Schuhe vor der Tür)….sorry, bin ich zu spießig dafür ;-)
- Zimmer ist wirklich sehr klein (das wussten wir), aber mit Gepäck für 4 Personen schwierig
- für große Leute (ab ca. 1,85/ 1,90m) sind die Betten zu kurz

Great value hostel, perfect location with mrt station literally across the hostel
Pros:

This hostel is literally in front of a mrt station, super convenient. The value is great, Singapore hotels can be expensive but this is a cheap way to stay in heart of Chinatown

Cons:

The bathroom on the main floor is outside, a bit inconvenient to shower and such.
