The conditioner at room 307 should be fixed because it drop water to the bed! Other thing is average.

Hi hi, Thank you for your feedback. The aircon in room 307 has already been fixed the next day. If you had been affected by the aircon leakage, we apologize for it. Do let us let know if there are any problems with any of our facilities and we will be more than happy to move you to another room immediately.

The girl at reception, Loretta if i am not wrong, was very nice. The rooms are nice too, perfect for a brief stop over!

This hostel is a bit of a hike away from the Marina area if you like walking. Maybe a solid half hour. Cute part of town..."little India" area. So don't expect to be among the skyscrapers. Close to a 7/11 for snacks and water. Rooms have nice big storage lockers (bring lock) but lack any character. Bathrooms were not the cleanest but lobby was really nice. Four public computers to use...and a massage chair!

Footprints Hostel provided us a satisfying service. The cosmopolitan atmosphere here was great. The Internet service was excellent. I will recommend it to my friends. However, a bathroom smelt a little in the morning!

Good hostel and good value for money , they have air con only at night time I dont think you really need it during the day unless you plan to stay in your room the whole day ... bathrooms were big and spacious... the TV room was a bit small and right by reception which was ok but not the best place .. also in a nice location, near many restaurants and 10 mins from metro

Like your friendly staff. Free wifi breakfast was good. nice if basic shampoo was avail free in the shower. Also the push on 2 seconds bath room faucets was really annoying. Overall good for the price.

Hi there, Thanks for your review. Our dorm prices are kept low for budget travellors so we do not provide a lot of extras. Most of our guests bring their own toiletries and we do sell travel sized toiletries in our minimart on the 1st floor in case guests need them. I just need to correct our bathrooms are using the lift up lever taps whereas the wash basins are push down faucets. On average, the faucets are on for about 8seconds before you need to push it down again. In water scarce Singapore, we tend to be cautious about conserving water whenever possible. We regret any inconvenience you may have with a faculty faucet. If you come by Singapore again, do give us a chance to host you better.

This was a nice hostel, good location and great staff. The showers and toilets etc were really nice, powerful and clean. The free wifi in the rooms was excellent and breakfast was basic. I would stay here again.

Very nice staff, but very crowded place.. The location so close with little india MRT.. I got sgd 12 for dorm, was a discount for the new bird online.. Overall, this is a good hostel if you come with friends. There is no lift there, so be aware if you bring kids..

Very good hostel. But the AirCondition should be working the whole day and not only at night.

Giant cockroach greeted me on arrival and it has a pretty antisocial common area with movies constantly playing, but staff were nice and it was good value for money and pretty clean.

Owner Comment (Hide)
Hi there, Apologies for the cockroach. It must have slipped our housekeeper's handy insect spray when he did his housekeeping. Rest assured that this 'pesky' roach is not a common occurrence at our hostel. As for the common area, we have a lot of recent movies so guests tend to watch 1 movie after another. Another good place to chill out will be our outdoor terrace. Guests are known to chill out over beers here. Do check us out again when you are in Singapore. Cheers!

It is nice value for money. But if the hostel can provide soap and shampoo then it will be perfect. Nice breakfast and nice bed.

We stayed there two nights. In every room was a different smell, but our room was the worst. The have a mildew Problem there. Breakfast is ok, but there is not enough space for the breakfast.
