    Great hotel for a very reasonable price!”

    Our hotel room was very clean when we arrived. The aircon was cold enough. There was even a hair blow drier. The room is spacious enough for two people. The hotel is conveniently located in Station 1, just around 2-3 min walk to the white beach. The price is cheaper compared to other hotels along Station 1. The only con that I will say is that the bar in front of the hotel can be pretty loud and you can hear it from the room. Overall, I will still recommend Second Wind Hostel!

    Very good location, it’s near station 1 and dmall. Wifi is not good inside the rooms. They have a common kitchen where you can cook your own food and the most important thing for us is they have unlimited drinking water to keep you hydrated. My husband and I loved our room, it’s clean and i loved the interior design even though we don’t have a television. The receptionist allowed us to have an early check in cause we arrived at 7am so we still got enough sleep on our first day. Staff are friendly and approachable ☺️ great value for money.

    I find the place not that clean. Ash trays not cleared, no area to dry hang clothes so expect a lot of underwears being placed along the corridors. Bath towels provided looked dirty. Hot showers not functional. No toiletries prepared. No Wifi.
