Footprints Hostel - permanently closed at Perak Road since March 2021

The hostel location is easily good. Has many restaurants and 2 nearby metro station. But Air conditioning in the dormitory and cleanliness in the washrooms was not the mark. The air conditioning is active only during night time but felt it as insufficient. The staff here is very cooperative and the hostel provides breakfast. One can try if solo and really on budget.

Extremely hospitable and friendly environment. Clean and cozy stay. Loved my stay here. Staff is very helpful and kind even at 12 in the night! Made my first visit to Singapore a memorable one. Ooh and it's very reasonable too. Plus it's located close to an MRT station and the city. And did i mention that they have a yummy spread of breakfast too? Totally worth your bucks! Completely changed my anxiety about staying at a hostel. Thanks Darius and Job :)

Overall good experience! Communication is fast and pleasant. Check in was easy, and possible sooner than stated. Also staff is quit friendly but sometimes pay more attention to their mobile phones :) Breakfast is basic and room is small but for included price it's great! Showers on second floor not very clean. Ceiling quite moldy but smell is OK without any problems. Rooms are great, lockers are too small for backpacks though. After all a good choice on Footprints!

Pros: cheap place to stay if you're don't mind staying with unknown people (dorm style) cleanliness is okay. Cons: looks bit rubdown but hey what you expect in a backpackers stay right? You must bring your own lock if you want to use the locker. Overall, decent stay for anyone who looking to just lay your head and sleep and not keen in spending on accomodation

A very finely managed neat and clean hostel in little India, Singapore. It is just 100 yards from the nearby metro station. Breakfast is complimentary here. Eatables are not allowed in the rooms. Service is prompt and staff is helpful and straight forward. No hidden charges there. We loved our week long stay.

While I was there visiting I was very sick, I couldn't stop coughing, of course this was not the hotels fault I was sick but naturally I didn't want to wake up the bunk mates in the room I was in, so I spent most of my nights in the lobby waiting, the first night I stayed up until 6 am and went upstairs to sleep, I woke up at 8 am pouring in sweat, they turn off all the AC's in the room at 7 am and it turns into a sauna and stays that way until 7:25 pm when they turn the AC back on. It says 7 PM But it doesn't turn on until 7:20 pm or so. One night I was finally not coughing much and decided to try to sleep, and roaches were crawling all over me. I felt uncomfortable and went into the lobby and there I found more roaches on the couch. I told the lady and she gave me another room. She was the only nice employee there. That room was much nicer, still same sauna problem. Definitely would never recommend this place. There were stains all over the mattresses that made them ugly and disgusting looking, they gave you sheets to put over them, I think they should do whatever they could to hide those mattresses before you get there. It's disgusting. They need new mattresses. Good location in Little India near the MRT and all public transportation ( buses, taxis ) roach infestation, very dirty, only nice area is the lobby, needs new paint, needs AC all day, needs a better AC unit too. Just a sad place. I wouldn't recommend staying here, save your money for a nicer place.

Cheap and very convenient (close the MRT). The breakfast is nice too. However, the room I stayed in (207) was really hot. The AC was turned on but it wasn’t doing anything at all. Other than that, I like how cheap and convenient this hostel is.

Good deal for what it is. Unfortunately for me, the cleaners dismantled my bed a day before my checkout date (clearly displayed on the bed tag) and stole what I had left out ($80 microfiber towel, $45 travel pillow, sandals, socks, sunglasses.) Took it up with reception who said the cleaners didn't see anything. Also my bag was gone through and had clothes hanging out of it. Everything in the locker was fine.
