3 Night Stay at Plush Pods
Chose this hostel as it was really close to MTR station (half a block) and downtown which was convenient as I was going to the Singapore GP. Bugis Junction is close by for shopping and eating. Lots of choices when it comes to restaurants and there are 7-11s nearby for water and other snacks. The bed was firm, pillow kind of soft for my liking but your pod has a little medicine like cabinet that you can lock and store items as well as a light and two outlet plug for charging your electronics. Very convenient . There is also a drawer under the lower bunks to securely store your backpack and small luggage cases. Hair dryers can be rented as well as towels. Plush Pods also sell soda and water in reception. The washrooms are unisex and combo toilet/showers. They were not the most modern but did the job. The place is really secure and you need to be buzzed in by reception or scan your room key to get through the front door and get on the elevator. Wi-Fi can be spotty at times and is not a strong signal but there is free Wi-Fi. Good place to stay if you only need a place to sleep and shower since I spent most of my time out and about.

Perfect Location Good For A Short Stay
Apart from the fantastic location of the hotel, which is just 200m away from Bugis Junction, I don't have much to boast about the hotel. I think this is mainly because my room mates (all girls bunk) was occupied with what seemed to be permanent residents! They would talk loudly till late!. They are mostly occupying the bottom bunk as well. Good point though: The ladies bunk share a single locked bathroom/toilet, across the room and accessible by a key. The dorms is also accessible by a pass card only. As such, you won't be sharing with the other dorms. The space is kinda small in the room (with about 8 beds in there I think) and there was a dressing table in the corner and a long mirror behind the door. A locker below the bed (can be daunting if you're in the top bunk!) a foldable table & another small locker beside your bed. Plug points are also right beside you. Great staff I must say! I am unable to comment on breakfast or the common area as I did not utilise it. I will come back here if I have to stay just for the night but not any longer than that. Bring your own towel and toiletries!

Avoid at all costs
They didn't have my booking. They didn't give me a room (which was on my expedia booking) but a pod, for the same price as a room. They didn't tell me they didn't have my booking. They tried to charge me more than the expedia booking. They didn't give me two beds initially as on my expedia booking, but only one pod. When I got into my pod (instead of a room!), the room light was permanently on in front of my pod -- directly in front of my feet. I didn't stay here though and moved hotels immediately. Since they didn't give me a room, there was no way I could have slept here. They didn't even inform me that they didn't have my booking, but tried to get me for all of it, despite not giving me what I had booked.

Sadly nothing plush about it
The toilets/showers are probably one of the worst I've seen in a while. The room trash bin was left to overflow for 3+ days. The sheets, as far as I can tell, were being replaced regularly, but the floors/toilets weren't being cleaned regularly. The receptionists were incredibly helpful and friendly though. I've been to other, much cheaper hostels in SG, and they are in far better condition (eg., The Hive). It's a shame because the location of this hostel is near everywhere. Hope they could improve things.

Worst place ever
The worst place ever.I stayed there for 5 days in a standard room with one double bed. I don't usually use the superlative term but this place is simply the worst ever. Room was so dirty; the bedding sheet was already dirty and stained when I first got there; also, I have to clean the bathroom by myself on arriving. Not only the room quality but also the service quality was incredible low! One of the staffers cleaned a storage room, which happened to be next door, making noises, after midnight. Wifi signal is weak in the room so I ended up signing up for overseas data program. Also, considering the extra charge even for the towel, it is NOT inexpensive at all. Above all, what made me to write this review is their attitude; the reception desk closes from the night to early morning but the receptionist did not inform me when check-in. During the check-in, they told me to put some deposit($50) but I couldn't retrieve it when check-out as the desk was closed(at 7am). A month later, after a few email-reminders on my end, they finally sent me my money, and I only got $35. To sum up, don't stay here.

AWESOME HOTEL HOSTS
NEGATIVES - The stay in the 20 Share room PODS was o.k. Beds where comfortable enough although the Air conditioning was only operating during 8pm to 8am, meaning you are inside a sweat box in the pod, if resting there during the day. The Mens showers where cramped for the usage as 2 out of 3 cubicles have a Toilet in them as well, a bit unhygienic in the sense that water sprays onto it and then runs down onto the small area you have to shower in. The PLUMBING needs to be fixed as drains in the MENS showers block up at times. POSITIVES - KATIE (KITTY), DANNA and LIU YANG where EXCEPTIONAL hosts as all info required from them came with a SMILE. Keep up the great work people. Thanks for all your help during my stay, much appreciated, look forward to staying with you again in the future. Location as mention by others reviewing is fantastic, door step close to the BUGIS MRT, and surrounding shopping malls, 7-11 store down the road, handy for BEERS ( 10 o"clock SOMEWHERE in the WORLD right ? ), Fantastic restaurants/ hawkers in the same street and others close by. Enjoyed the great food and shopping here. Thanks again STAFF.

Perfect for a couple of nights
The staff at the hostel were very nice and easygoing, but the rooms could have been cleaner. At a glance everything looked clean, but when you looked closer there were spiderwebs and a thick layer of dusk. I think they have a ruine where some places are simply never included. The location was great. A little hard to find at first, but there is a big sign that helped us find it. Everything in Singapore is walking distance so this location is ideal.
