Stayed one night after attending a wedding. Plus point is the beds sligjter bigger than a single and my area had two plug points. Heater and toilets all work. Airconditioning was good. Check in was well thought off and it works automatically. Downside is I did experience noise up to 3 AM from the downstairs pub area..only a problem if ur a light sleeper otherwise not an issue. Would i stay again..yes..for a hostel where everything works why not

Very dirty beddings and washrooms. We found layers and layers of different people’s hair on our beddings. It was in a good location if you are fun loving and if you enjoy going out at night for a drink and a bite.

Horrible hostel! Zero customer service. I still to this day have not spoken wi to anyone from Hipster or Hotels.com. Dirty and gross rooms. Absolutely terrible.

For a youth hostel, the place is fantstic. We all have a locker and a lot of space to place our stuff. The breakfast is not big but ok. And it's situated on the best street ever

The air conditioning is ONLY in the sleeping area, not the shower/bathroom area. It is barely cold enough, and when you shut your curtain to keep out the light at night, you block the AC from reaching your bed area. There is one toilet for the floor of around ten people, and two showers which open directly into shared area so nowhere to change. People did not respect the quiet hours during the weekend and continued to talk at points late in the night.

My friend and I spent 6 nights at Hipstercity in Singapore before and after our trip to Bali. The affordable price, friendliness of the staff, cleanliness of the facilities, and ease of the check-in/check-out process were all EXCELLENT! I would recommend Hipstercity to anyone who wants to stay comfortably in Singapore for a great price. I’m so glad I found this place on Expedia. Thank you, Hipstercity!

This place is okay. If you’re looking for just a bed to sleep in it’s alright. The bed is not comfortable and the bathroom had no ac . It was so unbearably hot in the bathroom you couldn’t be in there for more than 2 minutes without dripping sweat. Our room ac wasn’t on when we arrived so the room was just as hot , thankfully the unit started to cool the room off by the time we went to sleep but the bathroom remained a sauna . The area is decent, walkable to clarke quay, metro, and some cute waterfront restaurants nearby. The staff were nice just didn’t have anyone at the desk most of the time.

The hostel itself is really nice, clean and well run but their is a club that places music across the street until 4 and then other venues play music through to the morning as well which made it impossible to sleep even with earplugs. We had the double room on the 3rd floor with the street-facing window. Other roomprobably aren't as bad.

Unfortunately this lovely hostel is located next to a night club. Felt like i was trying to sleep in a club. Earplugs didn’t help at all - Not even noise canceling earphones. If you want to sleep more than 4am to 9am I can’t recommend this place. If you don’t mind a 5 hour sleep then this place is very lovely and nice.

For a solo traveler wanting to explore two days in Singapore, Hipstercity fit my need perfectly. Unfortunately, my plane was delayed a day from overseas and I didn’t have a way to inform them. Many hotels would cancel your stay if you wouldn’t check in at the reservation time, but they left me a late check in form as well as a key when I arrived at 2am. Such a delight! Free earplugs, but there’s a chance that you may hear some really bad karaoke singing or throbbing bass from the bar downstairs late at night. There’s lots of activity in this area. FANTASTIC coffee in the lobby and some cereal and bread for breakfast. Hotel staff is super.
