Check in fine, room bit of a let down from pics but you get what you pay for we stayed in a mixed 18 bed so bound to b some clashes of comings and goings. Toilets pretty gross, wet seats this because the shower and toilet are in the same cubicle... Weird but hey. Great if your looking for something... More

Stayed 2 nights and found this to be very clean with pleasant and helpful staff. Little inconvenient access wise as is around 10 minute walk to nearest MRT (Farrer Park) and slightly further from Lavender on airport line. Room was OK although slightly on small side. Maid downside was that there was only a combined tolilet / shower for the... More

Stayed for a weekend and its pretty quiet.Don't expect to find backpackers mingling around because its more of a family/business type.Fernloft Chinatown will do better for backpackers but it wasn't an issue for us.It's a 4-storey building with an elevator so don't worry about heavy bags.Toilet & shower are on every floor and its not too bad.They provide hair dryer...

I arrived very late and just needed a place to stay, I forgot to reserve my arrival night at the original hostel I planned to stay at and had to go somewhere else for the night as they were booked. So I was looking for a place at 2:30am in the morning. I just walked down the street until I... More

The guests beside my room were extremely NOISY and ANNOYING during midnight, they talked and laughed loud, moreover, they ran in and out along the corridor which is really irritating when they hit the floor and washing machine. The management should alert about this and warn they not to do that. Luckily, my second night at Fernloft, they moved out.... More

Great hostel to stay! We book a double room, and it is located at the top floor. The room size is fine for two person, with only basic facilities such as cupboard and table. It is cool to get what we want with such a price in sg. The room is very clean and tidy, and it is quite at... More

I'm staying there with 5 other friends in a 6-mixed bed room. Cathy, the branch manager is helpful and friendly. She replies every The room is small but it's expected with such a price in Singapore, as long as it is tidy and clean. Bathroom is clean which i'm very particular in. Just 1 of the bathroom does not have... More

The location of the hostel is good. A block down Jalan Besar will get you to Mustafa Center which has now expanded to I think 4 buildings in total. I'm not sure. 2 blocks down, there is the Sim Lim Square. Then the Farrer Park Subway station is just around the corner. Maybe a 10 minute walk will get you... More

Travelled with spouse on our business trip. Chose Fernloft Chinatown from research on Tripadvisor. However they didn't have 4 weeks' availability so I only stayed there for 2 nights before moving to the Fernloft Little India branch. Pluses: -Location- 5 minutes walk to MRT station- safe to walk there at night. -Scissor-cut curry restaurant 2 minutes from the hostel is... More
