Spacepod@hive

I was surprised at how much I enjoyed sleeping in a space pod for a few days. I’ve stayed in hostels before and am use to sharing a room with strangers but I did like how the space pod offered extra privacy. I’m someone who often doesn’t stay our late and am content with a early quick night in, watching a film on my phone so I liked I could put the blind on my space pod down and do that without intruding on anyone. I can’t vouch for the location, since I don’t know Singapore well enough to know if it’s a good spot. But I had no issues with it, it was near 2-3 underground stations that were around 10 minutes away by walking. Not to mention bus stops nearby, so it was quick to find ways to get into downtown or other parts of Singapore and public transport is so easy and simple to use. And if you are one of those people that like to talk to people while staying at a hostel, this might not be the place for you. Maybe it’s because I stayed in a spacepod. But it’s the only hostel I’ve visited where a lot of the guests don’t interact with each other. I’ve been in hostels where you get talking to the people you share a room with, there was none of that. It could be because the space pod offers your own personal space and privacy. It’s not necessary a negative, it just depends what you want out of your experience.

Comfortable, clean and private sleeping environment inside the pods. The staff keeps the accommodation clean and organized. For us the best experience was meeting Abe, the manager. We received a lovely welcome by her at our checking in and enjoyed the interactions with her throughout our stay. We actually extended our stay two times. Abe is a real asset of this property. The other staff seems to be nice too but we did not have much interaction with them.

The people working there were absolutely lovely, it was a pleasure to see their smiling faces :) Thank you for that! The hostel was clean, had good amenities, free laundry, a tea/coffee station and an adorable fat cat The location was great, lots of restaurants in a walking distance and 3 MRT stations. We liked to walk to the city center passing by different districts and stopping by at various food joints and it would usually take us just a bit over an hour Regardless of it being a hostel, the beds were comfy and it was nice and quiet at night but you could still hear the neighbors moving/snoring in the other pods but it's not a big deal Overall our one week spent there was a wonderful experience!

Staying at Spacepod@hive made my family’s stay in Singapore very convenient and wonderful! - The place was super accessible. You can cross the street and find the nearest bus stop. The Lavender MRT is also only a few minutes walk from the hostel. - If you’re on a budget, it is also very near food places like Adam’s Corner where you can buy meals for less than S$10. - My husband and I were also able to do laundry with free soap from the hostel. The area has a hair dryer and iron for clothes too. - They have free coffee and cereal drinks at the pantry, and you can place some stuff on the big fridge. They also sell very affordable drinks at the lobby. - The staff were very friendly and accommodating! They also let us leave our bags a few hours after checkout since our flight is still late in the evening. - Aaand the cost of staying here is the cheapest so you can save your budget for whole lot other attractions.

The hostel was as good as you expect when booking the cheapest hostel for 2 people in Singapore. All in all it was adequate for our needs. Staff were very good. Well located near to several MRTs and buses Fortunate to not be in a dorm with any of the ‘permanent’ hostel users
