The location is great, it just couldn't be better. The staff is very helpful and friendly (especially the young staffs the older lady make grumpy face sometime) The room is nice but quite small. I think putting 8-6 beds in it is too much. Overall, we had a pleasant stay will come back if we have a chance.

I couldn't have asked for a better place to stay - they staff were brilliant - very helpful and friendly and the facilities were great. The free wifi and breakfast was a bonus too.

2 showers and 2 toilets in 1 tiny room with soggy CARPET between - for the whole hostel, male and female. Shower doors a bit transparent too. We got the private room: no windows, smelled strongly of urine/bug spray/both. Luggage room has no shelves or door (just a curtain) and they let everyone in there. Accidentally checked out a day early by mistake and they didn't correct me until I came back at night to collect my luggage, annoying as I could've left them in locked room. No refund either.

The majority of hostels in Singapore are quite pricey... So when you factor that in, Rucksack is a decent bargain. The staff was extremely friendly and helpful but there is always something to be said about a 28 bed dorm. It can get quite noisy and the stale smell in the morning was less than pleasurable. My wife also had some of her underwear stolen while we were out one day (They provide lockers but we never expected to have underwear, of all things, stolen).

Great hostel in a great location. When the hostel is full it can be a little tough with the bathrooms and showers because there are only two each, but never really had a real issue with it. Thanks for a good time!

Friendly staff, nice welcome, good private room - although without window. We recommend this small hostel for budget conscient. The place is quiet, well located. Free bread and hot beverage is a great bonus. We would go there again.

A little strange having only 2 toilets and showers and that they were almost in the kitchen.

Nice little hostel, it lacked in any real atmosphere and opportunity to meet other travellers was limited due to the limited communal space. It's a well located hostel that is fine to stay at for a stopover.

a good place to stay if you are on low budget traveling course. the big sofa in the living room is very comfortable, the only drawback was only about the bathroom, which is only two for the whole hostel. overall, nice place to stay

When we enter the building, we were reluctant at first because of the dirty stairs going up to rucksack. But it all disappear when we checked in. We found the place cool and comfortable. We enjoyed our stay, it feels like we were not away from home. The best thing is the location... walking distance from the beautiful spots of Singapore. More power to Rucksack Inn!!!
