Reviews of Yen Inn 3 stars

The location is convenient, within walking distance of both the bus station and the MRT. The staff were friendly and helpful, though not on-site—the front desk only opened at 10 AM. Since my flight arrived at 5 AM, I had to walk around with my luggage and wait before I could drop it off prior to check-in. The inn has elevator access and a keyless entry system, making it easy to come and go. The common area is bright and welcoming, with a small seating space offering local tea, coffee, and cookies, just like the picture. I booked a two-bed female dorm, which was spacious and comfortable. It was clean, and each bed was equipped with a night light, a power outlet, and a curtain for privacy.

The room had no windows; it was stuffy at first, and the central air conditioning could not be adjusted to individual preferences. The facility offered only two shared toilets, two shared shower stalls, and one separate women’s shower, which required checking for availability and waiting. During my stay, the place was fully occupied with students and families with children, making the toilet and shower waiting time longer —something I was not accustomed to. Although there was a designated disabled bathroom, it was being used for storage and was therefore unavailable.

It was quite layout while I was there I barely saw anyone but that could be because I was there in the June season.

I was in the shared space of two which was great but the bottom bunk was horribly uncomfortable. Top bunkneas amazing in comparison.

I liked the vibe of the property. Very wholesome and cozy

The showers were quite dirty, hair on the floor and the shower would flood. The rooms were clean and so was the bed so that was good.

I liked the rooms, even though it is a shared dorm thanks to the curtains you have a lot of privacy and space. It was very nice that there was available water station and teas. The hostel was super clean

I did not like that the reception is only open until 7pm. I had issues when I came - the bed that I received was already taken (I don’t know whether that was mistake on the hostel side or rather someone mistakenly took my bed). The receptionist was really nice and he helped me change my room. However if I had arrived an hour later when the reception is closed it would have been more complicated to fix it. What is more, I had the situation that my entrance code did not work and I had to ask security for help because I could not reach the hotel by the emergency line

Very nice stay near blue line MRT, the best was comfy. Good location easy to find, the best was comfy (if you wanted to meet more European maybe don’t come this location)

Because there is no windows the ventilation is bad the ac is on all night a bit of a noise, walls are thin, if you want to carry on sleeping after 11am this is when they come in to clean up which is quite noisy, you also have no where to leave your luggage, I had to make space in the corner

With a Dyson-like hair dryer !

It’s smaller then expected

Very good location, it was nice and clean and the staff are super friendly.

If there have clothe hangers in the mixed dorm will be very thoughtful.

The place was very clean and fully equipped. I especially loved how big the bathroom was. The location was also very convenient, near the MRT station and lots of restaurants and shops around.
