Staff were busy running the bar so it was difficult to get advice.

Dave is a really friendly guy and makes you feel welcome, he even personally gave us a lift into town on our first day! The bar/restuarant has a brilliant atmosphere and food, and the hostel is a great place to meet people. Had an ace 4 days there.

The informal environment was good, however there can be more interaction with travellers and educating them on Singapore.

this was the cleanest hostel we've stayed in and the shower was sooo nice!the only problem we had was that there was never anyone around. the only time the people that ran the place were there was when it was being cleaned. otherwise the place was empty, so no one to ask if you have any problems or even for when u want to check out! but overall it was a really good hostel, just bad service.

very very clean comfortable and homely. Nicely decorated, free breakfast and access to their kitchen and washing machine. Discounted food at their resturant, and free welcome drink. Spacious, homely and comfortable rooms, they could get away with charging a lot more than they do! PLus they had marmie in the pantry for guests to use and after living in China for a year with no marmite than was cooool! lol!

I LOVED MY STAY AT FERN LOFT THE STAFF ARE THERE TO HELP WITH BIG SMILS ALL THE TIME. FUN PLACE TO BE AND YOU WILL GET TO MEET LOTS OF FUN AND NICE PEOPLE, ITS A GREAT LOCATION JUST A FEW MINS FROM THE BEACH AND A 5 MIN BUS TRIP TO THE CENTRE.

David is absolutely wonderful and very accommodating. Upon staying at the Fern Loft Hostel at the beach for one night, David suggested that i may prefer the River Valley Road branch better as it is closer to the city centre. He was right and provided free transfers. However, as others have commented, reception is not often manned by anyone that can help with tour bookings or general advice. They can let you in, but thats about it.

Great location for getting to the airport and the price was good. However, the staff was rarely seen and I was never given a blanket. I was told there were none left!
