About

At Beary Best! we seek to retain the carefree charms and ways of a
backpacker hostel and simply to provide the true essentials: comfortable
and good value self-check in, self-service accommodation.

laid back and friendly environment with all the facilities we believe
truly matters for travelers... a dedicated lounge/dining area, multiple
female & unisex bathrooms, dorms of various sizes, bike storage

A little bus stop stands in front of the hostel and just across the
street is the brand new Chinatown MRT station with connections to all
key Singapore attractions Marina Bay Sands, Sentosa Island, Orchard

Great location. Rooms were ok but bathrooms need updating. I didn't sleep well as fan that is on all night was extremely loud. My remote check in didn't work so I found this a bit stressful as I couldn't get in when I arrived

Staff were lovely and had a good time here. Beds did move a lot and very loud metal lockers. Location is perfect and had a wide range of ages staying in the accommodation making it suited to all ages. We could drop our bags off before which was really helpful

Pretty good hostel, no very social and has many older people staying here (nothing wrong with that).

Hostelworld says

We like A Beary Good Hostel?s location in Chinatown; the entrance is inside a covered arcade and next to the MRT station, making it convenient for getting around the city and to and from the airport. This comfortable, friendly hostel has accommodating staff on hand 24hrs a day with ?excellent knowledge of the city?, according to our guests, who say they?d stay here again. It features large windows, air conditioning and clean rooms, with a ?no shoes? policy.
