Rooms clean, beds changed daily! Quiet at night. Really cool touch is when you swipe your card to get in the room your pod lights up for a bit so you can find your way in. Wifi bit weak in our room but outside was super-fast, there are fans outside. Could only fit one back pack in our locker, that... More

Wink Hostel is a modern take on the hostel concept. It offers some great facilities and a safe environment but there's still some room for improvement. The hostel is within minutes of the Chinatown MRT, and is conveniently located from major tourist attractions. The staff provide you with an access card when you check in, the pods or beds have...

Wink is in a safe, handy location, China town. The hostel was clean with a fun concept. Breakfast was a pleasant surprise, not my style of food, cereals etc but great to have a cup of tea and a piece of fruit before you walk out into the great unknown!

This hostel is everything you could want from a hostel: Great location - right in the centre of china town, 1 minute walk to the metro,markets and loads of good food places. Bedrooms: we had a double pod in a 4 pod dorm which was really fine, a great touch is that when you enter with your key card you... More

As an "older" traveler new to the hostel world I arrived at Wink not sure what lay in store. What I found was a warm and friendly welcome and a standard of accommodation far above expected levels. The pod beds offered comfort and a degree of privacy impossible in normal dorms, although some night-time "noise" was unavoidable. The rooms were... More

I stayed for two nights and had a mixed experience. The location is amazing and the price is ok for Singapore. Also I found the reception staff very helpful and professional. They give you a tour of the place when you arrive and also were more than willing to help call cabs in the early morning when I was leaving... More
