Budget stay in 5footway.inn Project Boat Quay @ Singapore

Renovated from two storey old shop lot. This contemporary hostel have clean rooms with sufficient facilities. Breakfast and filtered water provided. Location is excellent as near to Clarke Quay and 5-10 minutes walk to Clarke Quay MRT station. The hostel is located within bar and food area. On top floor, there is a balcony where you can have great view of Marina Bay Sands and Fullerton hotel which is located opposite the river. Value for money. Free flow coffee and nice view from the terrace. However this is hostel which only have shared bathroom. Limited choice of breakfast menu, either bread(with jams or butter) or cereals with milk. The cereal taste is not fresh. Bathroom and toilet a bit far from my room and the finding ways is tough at first as the layout is like a maze. Some toilet is smelly and don't seems to be clean. Breakfast needs to be improved.

Rating:7/10(Overall moderate. Cheap and great for budget traveller to Singapore. Location is very central and fantastic. The breakfast and toilet needs improvement).
