Strange experience- no one at reception for check in but mail had been sent with details. 3 rooms on one floor- not sure if they were all dorms but only one bathroom for us to share which was a little annoying! Additional toilets downstairs but a bit out of the way. Some sheets were not changed on beds as other people checked out which I did not like. No one at reception for check out so we just had to leave. Overall strange set up but location was ok and cheap for Singapore

arrived with no room and refuse give refund
Booked Double room through hotels.com for me and two kids for 3 nights, one kid is under 4 yrs, After booking, send a email to the hotel to confirm the room and arrival time, been told everything is ok. On the arrival day evening, nobody at reception, called the owner, been told no double room left for us due to their system error, no apology and no explain, only ask me and two kids to stay in a 6 bed dorm room, and badly only left two upper bed for us. After i even found out another 2 person sleep on the mattress on the floor in that tiny room. Totally unacceptable and horrible, the people in the room end up sleep from 3am and by 6am got up again,me and my kids was badly disturbed and only slept 3 hours . The next day morning, after complain to the receptionist and request 1 st night money refund, the owner never showed up and refuse to give refund for their poor service. I had paid full price for private double room through hotels.com , but the hotels give me 2 bed in a dorm and refuse to refund the difference. totally rip off. Do not stay in this hotel unless you want to arrive and end up with no room like me.

It was a memorable stay ...huda, Shasha & mustafa were very friendly Hospitality was awesome.. Recommended for family travellers. Clean rooms & toilets. Have all d facilities of a hostel better than a 4-5 star hotel as u get to interact with fellow travellers. Just like a home in singapore.

Nice location, value for money and friendly staff. The bed is so comfortable to sleep well. The bed space quite big, the toilet is near to the dorm. The place a bit far from the subway station, need walk 15-20 minutes.

We didn't stay in this hostel & the staff transfer us to a different hostel as they blame hotel.com by not informing us that they were fully book. As a customer I was puzzled how this thing can happen & hope hotel.com can explain & we were very disappointed

Cheap, clean hostel close to Little India
Good little hostel close to Little India. The owner is helpful and friendly but not there all the time. This is fine as you have your own entry card and key. The hostel is clean and the bedding comfortable. Air conditioning in the rooms was very welcome in the sweltering Singapore heat. The owner sells discounted attraction tickets and cold drinks. Boon Keng and Farrer Park MRT stations are walking distance away as the hostel is close to the intersection of Lavender Rd and Sarangoon Rd. The train system in Singapore is easy to navigate and makes getting around a breeze. There is City Mall, a western style mall at Farrer Park MRT station with brand name stores. Mustafa Mall with its many electronic and jewellery stalls is a little further down Sarangoon Rd. Overall, we had a good stay and would recommend it for those on a budget. Good for families of 4-6 in the bunk rooms.

Clean hostel in good location. Very helpful staff.
Very affordable accommodation option for Singapore near Little India & close to bus route (bus stop right opposite hostel) and underground station just 5 minutes walk away. Staff very kindly waited up for our family of 6 (till after midnight) when our flight was unexpectedly & significantly delayed. They also let us store our luggage with them on our final day free of charge until the time we collected it at 6.30 p.m.

Great hosts with useful information.
We travelled as a family of 6 with small children to Singapore from a holiday in Malaysia and were looking for somewhere cheap. We had never stayed in a hostel before and were a bit wary. However, Huda was a great host, very friendly and gave us some great tips on where to visit and eat. The room was very comfortable and much better than we had expected. It was a shame we were only staying one night.

Good affordable accomodation
Im happy that the staff in Drop Inn are helpful,friendly and trustworthy. With my busy work schedule, i have to leave my guest in their care. So far, my guests were able to find their way around Singapore with their help. There were times i have to leave valuables to be passed on to my guests since i have no time to see them. My guests were able to recieve them. The place is clean. The only thing is the location. Its quite far from the MRT which is the main means of transport here in Singapore. Besides that.. everything is good. Its clean, its safe, its worth the price you pay for.

5 Star Backpacker Inn
The room for 8 person is clean. You get some privacy and the bed quality is awesome and looks brand new. They used ikea double deck beds so it's beautiful and pleasant. The inn is 10mins walk from Lavender MRT and a bus is available that stops a few steps away. Breakfast is simple-coffee and bread. Comfort room is clean. Wifi in room is amazing. The owner-HUDA is super friendly and attentive to your needs.

こんな宿はあるのか、と思うくらい最悪でした。 まずチェックインの対応が悪い。22時まで可能と書いてはあるものの、21時に到着すると既にフロントは閉まっており、ホテル内にも入れず「こちら(電話番号)に電話を」と書いてありました。運良く中に人がいたので開けてもらい、中の電話を使いましたが、ネット・電話が使えない状態の旅行者はホームレスになってしまいます。電話をすると2.3分で来ると言われたものの、最終的に10分以上待たされました。 さらに、予約していたにもかかわらず、部屋を用意できないと言われ、返金もしないと。また、トイレ・シャワーは不潔以外の何でもなく、シャワーは水しか出ません。セキュリティも甘く、部屋でさえも、コードが分かれば誰でも入れてしまいます。 朝食なんてありませんし、なにもかもとりあえず汚いです。
