First of all, the name of the place is "Checkers Backpacker" on Expedia, but the actual name is "Checkers Hostel". There is another location on Google map with the former name and the same hostel pictures. I ended up spending 1 hour reaching the actual place from the station. Be careful!!!!! Secondly, facility is old, but bed area is maintained clean to a decent level at this price. I had a good sleep as well. Bathroom is not clean but acceptable for this price. Finally, for service, not so good. The lady with hijab is not pleasant to talk with, but acceptable at this price. Overall, considering the price, it's acceptable to stay for short term. I wouldn't prefer to stay for long here. ##### Jay Stayed 1 night in Apr 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Yean Yih 1 Apr 2020 Liked: Staff & service #### Budget hotel Staffs are friendly but cleanliness need to be improved. ##### Yean Yih Stayed 14 nights in Mar 2020 ### 2/10 Terrible #### James, Bali 30 Jul 2019 Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities It was dirty, unorganized, and crowded.

Very very very terrible place. Strange smells and over-crowed rooms.Full of people from India and pakistan with full of their luggage bag inside the hostel. Shoes and slipper all over the place and full of bad smell. The bathroom is too small and again smelly. Sleeping in the overcrowded hostel is impossible due to the snoring of permanent guests and loud music from the bars and "massage" spa's in the neighborhood. The reception clerk useless. No daily cleaning and if you ask them to clean, they always said they dont clean and change the blanket daily.. Don't book here!!!!!! You will waste your money.. ##### Prabakaran Stayed 3 nights in Jun 2017 ### 2/10 Terrible #### Verified traveller 8 Jun 2017 Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Do not book here! Don't be mislead by the price Terrible place. Strange smells and overcrowed rooms. Even the lockers are not big enough for your backpack. The bathroom is chronically moist and again...smelly. Sleeping in the overcrowed dorms is impossible due to the snoring of permanent guests (probably workers??) and loud music from the bars and "massage" spa's in the neighborhood. The reception clerk has a very bad attitude towards his staff and guests that dare to ask for any service at all. O yeah...and skip the free breakfast...it's factory toast with jam. Don't book here!!

I am not sure who need to take the responsibility in this case, but there were many many clients met the same thing. At the end, the boss said he added a bed for me in a 8ppl dorm, because i had dated my friend, so i agreed with this solution. However, I found that is a 10ppl dorm but not 8ppl, and there were 14ppl staying at the dorm that night!!!!! I can't accept i paid for a 8ppl dorm and there were 14ppl! Also, the boss let other clients slept at the lobby, I don't think this is a normal hostel allow. I won't stay at this hostel next time and I don't recommend to the others!!!! ##### chow ### 8/10 Good #### Mojtaba 23 Jan 2017 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, room comfort #### Cheapest we found in sg The cheapest we found in singapore and yet the most expensive rooms we paid in 3months backpacking. We had never stayed at a dorm before. We were the ONLY western people in our 3nights. In this dorm comes a lot of people from India, Sri Lanka etc.. and most of them are elder people so you can feel a bit lonely/outsider. But the staff are kind the Asian man at the desk are very sweet and nice. It's located in little India a bit far from the bay. And they have free breakfast. The toilets and showers were small in the men's room. And the wifi does not work well in the room. But it's the best we found at that price in the expensive city of Singapore. There is a place nearby called Albert centre. They have a lot of cheap food and it tastes good. And this hostel does NOT give any towels so you have to bring your own. ##### Mojtaba ### 6/10 Okay #### Verified traveller 15 Jan 2017 Liked: Staff & service Disliked: Property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Prix correct pour Singapour Proche d'un centre commercial et du métro.
