    I recently stayed at a hostel located in a great neighborhood with lots of Middle Eastern restaurants and shops. The female dorm was clean and comfortable, and the staff provided everything we needed for our stay. The rooftop patio was a cozy spot to hang out, and the location was conveniently close to public transportation. The free breakfast was basic but sufficient. Despite a few minor issues, I would recommend this hostel for budget travelers. my experience was positive and I would consider staying here again.

    The location is great, and very easy to find. The staff is helpful. Breakfast is ok.

    No windows in the dorms, not mentioned on the website. Also, not enough bathrooms, those do not have windows and smell of mildew as the doors are always closed. Could also use more cleaning.

    The location of Kampong @ Arab is perfect for exploring the city. It is central and full of tourists, with easy access to public transportation like Bugis MRT station. There are also plenty of eateries nearby and a cafe downstairs. the facilities at the hostel are great, including a rooftop with a beautiful view, washing machine and dryer, and a microwave. They even provide a light breakfast in the morning, which is a nice added touch. the beds are big and comfortable, and the hostel provides warm blankets for a cozy sleep. it is a convenient and comfortable choice for families.

    They made sure I had everything I needed for a pleasant stay, and nothing was too much trouble.

    Location and the staff were excellent

    Bathrooms were filthy. Near the bathrooms it was very stinky. Proper ventilation needs to be arranged in the bathrooms.
