Hotel Details

Location

Located within 300 metres of Boon Keng MRT Station and a 10-minute walk from Little India, offering excellent access to public transport and neighbourhood dining.
The hostel is a 15-minute drive from Bugis MRT Station and about 30 minutes by car from Changi International Airport. Public transport via the nearby MRT station is efficient for reaching the city centre and other attractions. Little India's restaurants, shops and cultural sites are within easy walking distance, and multiple dining options - including several halal-friendly choices - lie within 0.5 km. The area is well-served for food and transit on foot.

Accommodation

Space pods in mixed dormitories, each with air conditioning, a fan, individual lockers, and a lockable curtain. All rooms share bathrooms and toilets.
The accommodation consists exclusively of mixed dormitory rooms with shared bathroom facilities. Rooms are fitted with tiled flooring and include a fan and air conditioning. Each bunk bed or pod has its own locker, a personal mirror, multiple lighting levels, adjustable airflow, and a curtain that can be locked from inside. Some pods include a balcony. The atmosphere is clean and well-maintained, with pods kept in new condition and bedding changed regularly. Family rooms are available, accommodating up to 4 persons, and larger dorms can hold up to 10. There is no option for a private room or private bathroom. A space pod design offers more comfort and privacy than traditional hostel bunks.
