Thank you for your comment regarding of the car park lot, but we suggested to you the nearby parking lots. We have a lot of guests who are driving as well that never encounter a problem in parking their car to the nearby parking lots. We look forward to serving you again. Cheers!

In dormitory room, the electricity contact not being placed appropriately. I found it's a little bit difficult to charge my mobile phone. I think it's better to make up the bed by the staff first, before the guests arrive at their beds at night. It helps us a lot, after walking around the whole day, we don't have to make up our beds by ourselves first before going to sleep. Thank You very much

Thank you for your comment about the plug location and making the beds for the guests. We understand your disappointment but these things have been resolved during your stay with us if you call the attention of our staff immediately. We provide extension wires if your phone charger is too short, yet we implement the self service bed making; when our guest request to our staff to do it because you will come back late, we are happy to help you. Just call our attention and we are at hand for you.. Thank you for staying with us, we are looking forward to serving you again. Cheers! Fernloft Little India Team

Little overpriced for the room that you get, we had a 6 bed dorm and literally had no room to get dressed, get your bag out of the locker of anything, also one of the lockers didn't work.

I'd like to say, Fernloft Hostel Little India is superb! This hostel is very recommended when you have plan to visit Singapore.. Near to the city and also MRT line to Airport.. They have a cozy bar in wooden style lobby, love it! And also they have a very nice staff named Katy, she is so friendly.. :) ps: Katy, I just wrote this review from the bottom of my hearth.. :p

I know check in 2pm but I stated my arrival at 9am when I made the booking as requested. When got there man at counter insisted check in is only after 2pm. I enquired if i could just check in and leave my bag - still refused and told me to leave bag in the locker (without any keys to lock it). They were all full. He asked me to leave on the floor outside the counter - so risky. When check in told payment by credit card is plus 3% . No where is it stated in website or upon booking - MISLEADING

It's difficult to have a common bathroom for everyone outside the bed rooms. It's better to have separate bathroom for men and women

I am extremely disappointed with one of the staff. Just now I was sitting on the couch lying down in the lobby and the Filipino person who opened the hostel lobby in the morning was very rude and shouted at me for lying down. Its 6:15 AM now and the breakfast is not being served although the sticker about the breakfast says it will be served at 6AM and my flight is early in the morning. The rudeness is because I asked for breakfast at 6AM!!!
