Please consider accepting credit card facilities soon. Like any budget travellers, whatever hard cash we have, we intend it for travel around Singapore expenses, meals and shopping. So taking off remaining $ dollar for accommodation + another $15 for the deposit key leaves me almost suddenly in the lurch of no spending money. Money charger is there sure, but their rate is mostly not favourable, and would prefer to do it at our homeland. So please do something on this. Thanks.

Thank you for staying with us & for your feedback regarding credit card facilities. Like what you mention, we serve budget travellers & would like to keep accommodation costs low for our valued guests. Credit card companies charge a service charge for transactions, we would like to avoid this to keep costs low for our guests. It is clearly stated in our hostel conditions in our Hostelworld booking page that we only accept cash at our hostel and there is a S$15 key deposit. By stating it clearly on our Hostelworld booking page, our guests have the option of exchanging local currency at their home country before travelling. I'm sorry that you overlooked this point when booking & hence ended up with limited cash. We are sorry for the slight hiccp you had, and hope you'll consider our hostel again!

Had a great time at this hostel. Staff were super friendly and helpful, rooms were clean and the attic lounge was a nice touch. Overall I would certainly reccommend this hostel to anyone looking for a place to stay in Singapore, with an excellent location and great value for money.

we stayed here for 3 nights on our stop over in singapore. we loved the cleanliness and the friendly staff. we had two beds in a eight bed dorm - using an AC the air became sticky very fast - this is maybe the only thing I would point out as a negative point :-) location was perfect, just few minuts walk to the boat quey and few stops to the chinatown metro station. I would recommend to stay in P&T who is OK with sleeping in dorms :-)

Very much enjoyed my stay at Pillows&Toast. Although the beds were not very comfi, and I even found some hair on the matresses. However, the staff was excellent. Very helpful, gave good advice and were always in a good mood. The location is also great. Just a five minute walk from the MRT away and restaurants and bars close by as well.

Had a great time at P&T! Beds were very comfortable. Hostel is located very close to the Chinatown MRT and you could get many places just by walking if you wanted to. Everyone at the hostel is very easy going and nice. Would definitely stay here again on my next visit to Singapore!

We really liked the atmosphere because it was really home like. We loved the breakfast (especially the KAYA!!!), they had a nice pantry with a lot of cutlery. The staff were really friendly and accommodating! The bathrooms though small were comfortable to use. The rooms are tidy, we got the 8 beds per room but it was cut down to 4 because of the divider we had a really great stay in this Hostel!

I thought it was pretty good. Did the job for the night I was there. Comfy beds and only a stone's throw from Chinatown, which is a good area for a few chilled out beers and food.

>> Staff like Eddy and Heed great as always. >> Cleaning of bathroom foyer, replenishment of bathroom supplies can be a tad more regular >> Free toast and coffee a great deal, guests just have to partake and not rush out the door :)

Staff is young and unexperimented, not very welcoming (except for the night girl who was really nice, and helpful) Beds don't have curtains, and are in need of some mattress change, The attic was nice

Location is good, close to Chinatown market and MRT station. Staff was pretty helpful. Kind of loud at night though, they have a smart key system to get into the rooms (which in theory sounds great), but it means that there is a loud beep and then the door slams every-time someone comes in or out of the room.

For what if offered it was too expensive. Bathrooms upstairs were a combination of toilet with fitted showers. Many appliances - substandard - broken. Breakfast. What breakfast? And at the entry the girl was busy with her computer amusement. Polite? Yes. But that is not enough.
