Backpackers Inn Chinatown Singapore

On a 12 hour layover in Singapore. So took the train to Chinatown Inn.




Had a good nap, shower and managed to get some rest. This was not the facility on Mosque st but in a street behind it. Reception is on Mosques st. There is not actually a room. It is an alcove in a passage way with 3 double bunk beds. No door to passageway just a curtain. This is good as it allows the air to circulate.



Air con was adequate.There were also bunks in the passageway.  There was wifi, communal recharging station and a lamp on the bunk. Two showers cum toilet in the annexed building.



Useful to have ear plugs as all the rooms or alcoves open into the passageway. Close to people's park for hawker food, shopping and money exchange.
