If you are looking for a place near Bugis, this hostel is not a bad choice. Shared bathroom is not that good, specially the door. My sister and I stayed at dorm type room (all female), bed is okay - was able to sleep comfortably. There is common computer area that can be used, free wifi connection is good too.... More

Booked a double bed private room with shared bathroom. The only thing is, there is no wall above the door, which by the way leads out in a big noisy dorm with people coming and going all night. Poor lighting and no power outlet, rubbish service. Bed was comfy and bathroom acceptable. Great location.

他原本的名字是想睡覺的山姆現在改名成為想睡覺的KIWI已經換過老板了,所以讓我覺得跟之前差很多,也希望大家可以看過我的分享後,避免過去囉!老實說除了拍照好看以外其他我找不出什麼有點跟好處了,希望大家可以去別的地方試試看! How terrible we are! It's so awful ! Bad smell because they panted when you sleep there. It's so crowed and hard to get out. Although they always show the great pics for tourist but they didn't want to take care of you only the money! When we go to check out, we cann't believe the staff pass the... More

As soon as we arrived we were welcomed and made to feel at home. A friend and I stayed in the girls only dorm which was a little cramped but comfortable and clean. Staff were always on hand to help and were very friendly. Good location near to Bugis MRT station. Great free breakfast and cheap drinks/beers available from reception...I... More

If your a backpacker or travelling on the cheap this is the place to be. Friendly staff, free internet, quiet dorm room, amazing price-per-night for Singapore and lots more. Situated in Little India it is central to lovely pubs, sis-ha cafes and Asian cuisine restaurants. Within walking distance of the metro line to centre of the city or the airport.... More

Our double room was small because part of it was taken up by a large square box covering .....what I don't know(service area I guess!) Mattress was comfortable and the window could be opened but awkward to get at. Had a walk through the dorm area to get to this private room. 2 showers/toilets upstairs and downstairs so adequate.

We had a reservation at Green Kiwi Backpacker, but the owner told us that they had a problem with the reservation and it was already full, so they transferred us to Sleepy Sams, which now is known as Sleepy Kiwi (both names are still used). They put us in a 4 bett dorm, which had hardly space to turn yourself... More

Stayed there in July 2012 for a few days and I wouldn't recommend it at all, cause there were bedbugs.... It's actually sad, because the location is great, close to MRT and Bugis Mall and you can feel very safe as a female single traveller.... The hostel is also located next to one of Singapore's biggest mosque so it's up... More
