My partner and I stayed here for 8 nights, just recently in May 2013. The private room with ensuite bathroom is adequate, with enough space for 2 people who are travelling lightly. There are 2 private en-suite rooms, both of which are close to the street and reception. Most of the lower windows are bordered up, save a small window... More

Individual lockers with each bed. Tiles and very moderm decor in the bathrooms. Good range of jams with the free breakfast. Good wifi. Given the cost of Singapore this is... More

This is my second stay at Bunc in 3 weeks. It is located in Little India which means there are plenty of cheap places to eat and lots of good shopping around the area (SimLim square is one of the largest electronics markets in the area and is 2 minutes walk from Bunc). Reception, which includes big long tables for... More

This hostel has a very nice fashion touch of minimalism. Rooms were ABSOLUTELY clean, shiny white, and with a very powerful air conditioning system (which in Singapore is a total delight). Free breakfast (hostel level: toast, jam and tea.. but quite nice). The hostel is on one end of Little India so, it will take you approximately 10 minutes to... More

Overall facility is very nice. Location is good, Little India is great. Avoid the large dorms, it's just way too many people to cram into a space! Also I saw a small mouse in the lobby in the early morning and let the clerk know. I'm sure all hostels have rodent issues, hopefully this is a one-off. Not sure I... More
