Advantages;
Excellent location; next to Buddha tooth temple, a massive food court and subway
Cleanliness; Toilet and rooms are very clean
Value; Cheap prices
Service; Very friendly, extremely helpful owner and employeesDisadvantages;
Too small toilet and shower
just one shower and toilet for 12 customers
It was very hard to find the hostel, It was like hidden (I spent almost half an hour on the Banda street to find it)Overall;
If you don't mind the small toilet it is highly recommended.
This is a Trusted Review. Why?
In a very good location right near china town and the MRT. Also near maxwell food court which has some tasty cheap food. Good service and fair price. But only one small toilet and shower between 2 rooms. But it is kept very clean. And the staff are very hepful.
This is a Trusted Review. Why?
I stayed service world hostel for four nights. The hostel is very clean, and location is close to Chinatown MRT station and Outram Park MRT station. It is convenient to take MRT. What's more, it is safe. In addition, breakfast is not good, and I only drink the instant coffee. But it is a little noisy because level 1 is repairing around service world hostel.
