Stay 9 Jan to 14 Jan 2017
We found the staff pleasant, friendly & helpful. Our room was clean, as were the shared facilities. It suited our needs, as we were out all day and simply needed a place to return for a shower, a bed & a light breakfast before heading out again. Travelers need to be aware that this is a 'Hostel', not a 'Hotel'. I would certainly stay again, if my requirements were the same as this trip.

Never regretted to choose this hotel.
The owners were very kind. They served free breakfast-bread and jam. The hostel is very near to the Kallang MRT station and Geylang Bus station so it is easy to roam around Singapore. The room and shared bathrooms remains to be properly cleaned. You can do laundry-Wash and dryer. You can also leave your baggage if you checked in early or if you checkout early (when you still have errunds to do before your flight). Overall, I had a great experience and will always come back at this hostel the next time I will went to Singapore. :)

個人住宿感想
旅舍位置方便,但可能附近都是餐廳,在樓下騎樓看到兩隻大老鼠超級可怕。email連絡很方便,晚班機也可以自行入住。廁所男女共用,淋浴旁邊就是馬桶,空間小,但還算是乾淨。樓上浴室有分男女,但是是拉簾感覺仍不太安全。但因為價位不高也算符合性價比

Response from Ark Hostel on 27 Sept,2019
很高兴您喜欢我们旅馆的位置。 我们处于一个热闹的地区,附近有很多餐馆,因此可能偶尔会在附近的后街看到老鼠,不幸的是,因为不在我们的住所内, 我们无法对此进行控制。新加坡是世界上最干净的国家之一, 但是在世界任何国家市中心后街地区, 这是经常看到的问题。因为餐馆后街垃圾箱有食物来源, 很难避免。 我们是一家家庭宿舍,包括幼儿和年长的客人均可使用浴室,非常安全。 混合浴室在新加坡的宿舍很常见。 如果您不想使用混合浴室,我们也有女性专用浴室。

친철한 호텔..
숙소 upgrade 해주셔서 잘 사용 했습니다. 역에서 가깝고 안내도 친철하게 메일 보내주셔서 잘 사용 했습니다. check in 시간이 늦었는데 self check in 방법도 안내되어 잘 사용 하였습니다. 다만 복도 공간이 협소해서 답답한 감은 있었습니다.

Virkelig meget larm, søde værter.
Hostel var som sådan rigtig fint med eget værelse. Renlig og gode wc og badeforhold. Super søde værter. Morgenmads området var alt for lille og ligger sammen med receptionen, ikke optimalt. Men det væreste var helt klart køjesengene knirkede og var ledløse, så det ikke var til at sove, samt værelset lå ud til hovedevejen, og mellem værelse og vejen var der kun monter en plade som vindue, hvilket gjorde at trafikken kom direkte i værelset også om natten, rigtig meget larm fra trafikken..:(

場所もホテルも値段通りです。快適さ、清潔さを重要視するなら、避けた方がいいですが、家族で体験という考え方すると面白いです。チャレンジーなファミリー利用をしました。二段ベッド3台を5人利用しました。狭いです。 フロントの方々は民宿みたいで、とても丁寧でいいです。 再開発地帯なので、再来年には消滅しているかもしれず、この風情は無くなるかもしれません。
