READ WHAT SOME OF OUR GUESTS HAVE TO SAY ABOUT US: \n \n \n'It has been a pleasure to be one of the first guests at your hostel. I love the simple, cheery, colourful layout of the hostel, especially the bedsheets you chose in the dorm room, and the colours of the spiral staircase at the back. The hostel is easy to find from the MRT Station in a safe feeling part of the city, in the middle of things - a little oasis in the hustle and bustle of the city life of Singapore. The favourite parts of my stay have been the ease of finding markets to wander through for very cheap food in so many varieties to snack on while shopping for almost anything I could want. Good luck in the future! I will recommend this place to anyone I hear who is visiting Singapore, and if I do not get back to Singapore, one day maybe I will set up a hostel in Western Australia for you to visit me. \nCheers!' \nSUSANNE, PERTH, WESTERN AUSTRALIA \n \n \n'It may be relatively new but Bugis is fab for those travelling on their own with clean, airy, spacious dorms, brekkie, nice tv area and fantastic staff! I'd recommend Bugis to anyone!' \nELAINE, IRELAND \n \n \n'When I came to Bugis Backpackers, I was really suprised to find such a place in the middle of Singapore. I found everything I needed in the neighbourhood and the MRT station was near, if I wanted to get around in the city. Bugis Village, Little India, Arab Street, shopping areas and food courts - everything is around the corner. And the hostel itself is so clean, safe and nice designed, with it's beautiful living room and the roof terrace, that for me it's the only place in Singapore to stay.' \nJAN, GERMANY \n \n \n'Thank you so much for helping me and all the information.
