I had to book this hotel last minute from Canada for my daughter who was in Singapore. I actually called the front desk at midnight their time and they were so helpful and although they couldn't beat expedia prices they waited on the phone while I booked everything through Expedia - my daughter arrived a few minutes after I booked and said the place and the people were just amazing. Their balcony looked over a soccer pitch and they loved that. I would recommend for sure. I was really impressed with everything booking to the quality to the people.

Good location and very affordable, at least for the Singapore standards. Near the underground and not far away from the downtown, if you like to walk. However it can be noisy at the night time as the condition of the building is not the best (you will hear water flowing inside the pipes and other people even if they talk normally). Staff at reception is amazing and very helpful. Overall I’m happy with it.

The Hotel Yan is like a backpakers hotel for adults. The price of the rooms is very good, but they are very small. If you are traveling light you and your bags will fit in the room. The staff is great and always available. The area is very close to public transport and great food.

Single room occupancy, which means tight corners. That said, excellent design in maximizing utility of space available. While one has to climb up small flight of stairs to the single bed, the space below fits small desk, a chair, a sofa, & (below the stairs) even a safe! Tiny fridge under the sink, which stands behind a separate shower stall (next to it a different toilet stall). Definitely great find for the solo budget traveler.

compared to US hotels I'd give it a lower rating since the room was small comparatively and not much privacy (bathroom had see through walls with only a curtain to block from the rest of the room)

HOWEVER, I understand it's another country with different standards, especially singapore where things I assume are smaller since land is more expensive, and houses/apts are smaller in general so I feel it's unfair to compare it like that. We also didn't spend much time in the hotel since we were out all the time, so the

They had great hotel service, helped us quickly when we asked, in a great location (close to hawker centers, bus/mrt stops)

But yeah anyways, my friend says 11/10 and I'll probably say 8/10

Dirty, Not Worth It

They need to have some professional cleaning here. It was disappointing to see a tiny spider on my pillow. Bed lights not working and full of dusts. Remote control and kettle with dusts. TV only 3 channels to choose from. And TV LCD colours is horrible. Air conditioning have a noisy noise, it's not the quiet type. They need to fix it. When taking a shower, even though turnup the heater, but it's still cold an dthats because the sliding door is unable to close fully. Resulting a gap for the cold air to stream into the shower room. :( No hair dryer. Room small. Overall regretted spending so much money on it. Really not worth it. Stayed for two nights and that's why no room service/daily housekeeping. If anything I need I have to go down and ask for it. Overall, horrible wasted money experience. Not recommended. Spend your money elsewhere will be so much worth it.

My perfect hotel!

If I was going to design my perfect hotel, this would be it. It was cozy, chic, modern...perfect distance from public transit, in a quiet neighborhood far from the tourist track (i.e., locals everywhere) and with surprising treats, like Coca-Cola! A note: While I adored the next door Tibetan temple, spent every morning and night there and smiled at the bells and gongs at night...I realize not everyone is going to be the same. It is truly a 24/7 temple, so be aware you might hear gongs in the middle of the night.

We stayed in the deluxe suite room. The bath was fantastic! The bed was huge (the bed was firm which we liked) it was big enough for 2 adults and a kid, the room was spacious enough for the time we spent in it, though we did only really sleep and bathe there as there is so much to see and do in Singapore! The staff were all friendly! Ordered us taxis, safely stored our luggage on check out day, and they gave us extra free bottles of water when requested! We had flight delays of 10+ hours, we rang the hotel to let them know we wouldn’t be there to check in for the first night, the staff were very accommodating and helpful. We ended up checking in at about 2am, very quickly too, we were in our room within a minute or so and sleeping soundly. The complementary mini bar items were great too. The only thing that was uncomfortable about the room was not having a fully closing door for the bathroom area and having the curtain on the outside of the bathroom; when staying with a kid this can be problematic however it isn’t something you can’t deal with. Some outside noise can be heard, it is near a rather lively area, it’s no different than staying in a city hotel and hearing traffic though. There’s a small hawker center a few steps from the hotel, and a 7Eleven store. There’s a couple of grocery stores within 5-10 minute walk which is very convenient.
