Service World Chinatown (Chin Swee) Hostel Reviews

I stayed at the NO 'Service World' on Chin Swee Road. The hostel was on the second floor of a partially deserted dirty industrial/residental block with a fabulous view of car park. The hostel was more like a scummy council studio flat. The shower/toilet/kitchen/reception is the same room. It was unmanned by no member of staff for my stay. And for 2 nights i had the place to myself... though there was a 'family' who i thought may have lived there also in the next room. Awful stay.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at service world. The staff and owner (Andrew) were very accommodating and friendly. The rooms were clean and beds comfortable. The room had great aircon and a fan. Breakfast was help yourself, whatever time you required it and consisted of toast and coffee. The location was fantastic, right in the heart of Chinatown, with supermarket underneath and mrt station a 2 minute walk away. Overall fantastic value for money.

Staff is very helpful and kind.

Absolutely phenomenal place to stay. The owner Andrew makes this hostel stay worthwhile. One of the nicest, most genuine guys there is. He will go out of his way to make sure you have the best stay and best time possible in Singapore. Location is in Chinatown close to the MRT, large shops and plazas. Small dorms are key with few beds yielding more space. Price hard to beat. Overall, fantastic place to stay in Singapore.
