The rooms are are bit cramped, but you only need to sleep here because they ha've a great rooftop-bar. the airco worked and that's really nice. There's a good vibe. The only thing i disliked where the toilets. The doors don't close properly and the trash bin was always full. They could clean it a bit more often.

We stayed here 2 nights and were more than happy with our stay. As others have said, the rooms are a little cramped and under the beds had not been cleaned too well but the air conditioning was good and we were comfortable. The free breakfast is very good and the hostel is in a good location for both the... More

Stayed here for two nights and thought that it was really good apart from the fact out room was a cupboard in a bunk bed in it! There wasn't room to swing a cat! But it didn't matter because the breakfast, the friendly staff and the roof terrace made up for it! Showers good. Toilets not so good. I think... More

- Friendliest Staff I ever came across - Amazing breakfast with REAL Coffee aswell as fresh Fruits - Comfy Beds with AirCon at a (for Singapore) very reasonable Rate - Close to 2 MRT Stations that go to Chanig, CityHall, Chinatown and all the important Places - Lavender Footcourt across the Road. Great Choice of cheap and amazing Hawkerfood

Had the BEST time with Green Kiwi. Staff, Carol and Nesty, excellent! More than could be expected, so many extras and thoughtful touches, don't think I'm gonna stay in a pricey hotel ever again when I come to Singapore. You guys rock!

Couldn't recommend this hostel as the rooms are too basic for the cost. Position is only average still a $20 ride to the Airport. Staff are very friendly but for the cost I think I would go to a Hotel, particularly if there are 2 of you.

We stayed there for two nights on the way from Australia to Europe. Good location between the airport and the inner city. The rooms are basic, but clean and the breakfast is free and good. The guys there help you with travel tips and it has a nice roof top terace.

Okay, the rooms may feel a little claustrophobic, but they are neat and clean, as well as the showers & toilets. Staff is really friendly and the aircon's are doing their job to keep the place cool. Location is good, with two metro stations a 10 min walk away. Recommended.

Location was great, breakfast was good and included. Beds were in small rooms and slightly cramped, but not the worst, Air con worked and the atmosphere was good but not a party scene. The staff helped us figure out what to do in my limited time in singapore. There is a great hawker market across the street with cheap food... More

The staff at this hostel are the friendliest and most helpful staff we have had so far on our trip whether hotel or hostel. They make a point to learn your name, and just make sure your stay is as good as possible. The beds are comfy and the shower and toilets are perfectly good, and clean. The location is... More
