👍👍 If you wanna stay here, better u check all parts in the room like door key, air condition, shower if any, etc. Because sometimes some facilities in the room are broken. So if u found your room is get problem, u ask for other room. And if u not usual with backpacker better use hotel not hostel. Overa... People often mention room,

    The staff where friendly and great. And can't complain about the price we paid. But unfortunately the room was not cleaned, at least not properly, the room smelled of cigarettes and made it impossible to breathe, I had a blocked nose for a week after staying two nights. Eventually found the cause; cigarette butts left in the window. There was also water leaking from above the door where you hang towels and clothes, resulting in whatever was hung to be damp by morning. And bugs. Bugs everywhere. Tiny little bugs crawling everywhere. Overall, great location, great price, maybe stay a night or two. Definitely bring air freshener and bug spray.

So if u found your room is get problem, u ask for other room. And if u not usual with backpacker better use hotel not hostel. Overall in this hotel if u get nice room its comfy enough. If u take room with brrakfast u will get bread, tea/coffee, and egg. The price for stay in this hotel is also cheap enough. Recommended for backpacker. Enjoy!

    At first, in these hostels ads, they serve window at my room, but when I came there, there is no window. Then beside these hostel, there is a building rennovation, so it makes loudly sound. And the cleaness is bad. Also the breakfast isnt tasty. :(

    Washrooms are not clean. Must have lift because it is a problem for the people who cannot walk up 5th floor.. But rest this hostel is very good many facilities are there. We can live safely. And enjoy.

    Too dirty , I booked for 2 days and didn't check in after seeing the room. Lost full amount via agoda. Such sites should not encourage this kind of rooms.

    Very rude people there and no Wi-Fi, if you have luggage then you have to carry it by hand to 2nd, 3rd or 4th floor

    Very small, but is livable, you will get a bed and table in a very small room and the bathrooms are outside your room, lots of stairs to climb up to, to get to the reception or your room

    NOTE ! - Hawaii Hostel has closed permanently Great location and air con dorm bed only S$18 a night and free breakfast. This also a place with history . One of the oldest guesthouses in Singapore and the ONLY one left on Bencoolen st - a former budget travellers street now taken over by gentrification. Arriving at night and walking along Bencoolen street not sure whether there would be any budget accommodation left I was glad to see Hawaii Hostel still there. For those who need public internet there is cheap internet cafe short walk further down the street.

    The price is good. Well, the price is good for Singapore. Plywood walls and shared bathrooms in a flophouse. There are some very friendly ladies outside in the late of the night as well. Save money, but prepare for the consequences.

    Convenience but not comfortable enough.

    There was no escalator at all, and the highest level is 5 floors from the ground. Breakfast is very bland. Rooms are not very cozy and the security was terrible, especially for the females at the common toilets. They are not fully separated. WiFi is not working at most of the time.

😠 First time in Singapore and the worst experience I’ve ever had in life. We didn’t like the beds and told the front desk we didn’t like it and we want our money back. They didn’t give our money back and we were kinda forced to stay just because our fees were not refundable. Very very congested. They...
