Stayed there last time. I really like the hotel.

It does have both, personal room and shared room. I stayed in a shared room, which has 5 single beds (my friend stayed in a 10 beds dormitory). The room size are comfortable, but I believe for shared room the whole idea at hangout is not to stay in your room, their facilities to hangout are top notch and most of them are free for use. Walking distance to Little India MRT station is around 10-15 minutes around <1KM.

The beds.


The bathroom.


The view.


The free broadband wifi.


The pool table. Coin operated.


The TV.


The awesome Japanese-made vending machine.


Although it might not be that near to any MRT station compared to other hotels/places. But I'll definitely choose to stay there again if I'm traveling to SG.

That's a weird comparison. The Hive Backpackers is around 3KM from Suntec City and New 7th Storey Hotel is less than 0.5KM only. I could not help on the recommendation.
