Perfect Location, Clean and safe — Christopher Einzmann (2011-09-14) Hostelbookers

As described the location of China town is great, It´s close to other tourist attraction. It´s better to go to the hostel from Chinatown MRT than Otrampark. The room and bathroom was quite clean, staff was very helpful, they borrowed me adapter for phone changer , so don´t buy adapter, just ask the staff, they have it several. There is a locker box, just paid 10$ for deposit , after leaving you get the all amount of 10$ , not just 5$ so that was great. Free wifi offered. — Customer review (2011-08-16) Hostelbookers
