I should warn you first that they don't have elevator. So you better bring anything you can just carry and request for a room that's is not located at the fourth floor! My experience was horrible....

Loud, moldy, confused staff

We stayed three nights in Mercury (still inside for the last morning). At first we thought the place is okay, in some ways even good. Room was very small but clean and clean were the common areas,...

I was very pleased with this place. The price was decent, the rooms were clean, there were lockable storage cabinets and a fun rooftop area. The 4-bed dorms are (needless to say) /tiny/ but the...

First of all, as it is a backpackers place, and as I have been backpacking a lot, I wasn't for sure expecting a real hotel, so my disappointment doesn't come from too high expectations. But the place...

When you are hot and sticky and hauled yourself through rush hour transit, sometimes all you want is to soak in some water. I booked this place because it was one of the few places to offer a jacuzzi,...

Stayed here for three days on a short trip to SG. Early warning, not not listen to what the ads on the window say. Like other reviews, I can confirm that the jacuzzi is still not working and that...

This is a great place to stay especially if you are travelling in groups! A few walks from MRT station, as well as some family restaurants and fast food chains. Safe and quiet environment too, that's...
