Besides meeting the basic requirements like clean bathrooms and a good location, the staff is amazing and works hard to give this place something extra. Thank you Betel Box!OMG i loved this hostel so much! it was so easy to meet people, the room was so nice and cool with the air con and it was actually so fun to stay in such a big dorm. all my worries like safety and noise were completely wrong! the food tour was so much fun and there were a bunch of other tours which also looked fantastic!! yeah this hostel was wicked defiantly go there!!the staff here were EXCELLENT, i had the worst journey to Singapore, tired and jet lagged, i was in the worst mood.i had the itinerary to see as much as i could in the very few hours that i had in Singapore. the guys were fab, especially Justin, who helped me out tremendously. they were all extremely helpful and MORE than accommodating. I'd definitely come back.PD, Jad, Ty and I have had an amazing stay at Betelbox. you bought the culture, customs and history of Singapore alive for us on the food walk and cycling tour. The generosity of the staff and all of the travelers in welcoming and including our boys in all the activities was outstanding. Nothing was ever too much trouble & we can't recommend the betel box highly enough. Tyler will be back to play pool at 57 Chevy as soon he saves for his fare. Top notch hostel with a great friendly atmosphere. Huge common area allows plenty of opportunities to mix with other guests. Staff are very helpful, coming up with itineraries to fit into whatever timescale you have while also adding to the fun around the place with good anecdotes etc. Complimentary breakfast is really good also. A bit far out from the centre but well served by public transport, particularly the metro system. Great place with lots of fun. Try the free food tour! Joo Chiat isn't in the centre of Singapore but its well worth exploring and easy to travel to and from on MRT and bus. Hire bikes were cheap and good for getting to the beach but watch out for mental drivers! Justin, Tony and Din are amazing! Really helpful and welcoming. The communal area is chilled and a lovely place to hang out after a long day. Great shower in our dorm. Will be back in few monthsFantastic Hostel, Very Clean, excellent facilities and the guys that run the hostel are a wealth of general & local information. Don't miss out on Tony's Food walk, you won't regret it.
