    Pros +

    • Location is good. There's exit for us to go to Changi Hakwer Centre to buy food and drinks.The bbq service is good, the cleanliness of the bbq is acceptable. Good customer service by the front desk. Free flow of coffee but have to walk a bit to the front desk to get it. Toilets are clean, bathtub are clean. Just tat there's like no separation of wet and dry in the room as the bathtub is situated in the room. Maybe can have a separation as water tends to flow out and wet the carpet when the kids play in it. Other than tat its a good experience staying in a revamped SBS bus. Kids love it, playing driver at the driver seat. It an experience like none other.
    • Right next to Changi Village food center and adjoining park. Very convenient for meals there. Buses were very nicely remodeled and very comfortable. Slightly isolated location but Changi Village is the adjoining property and everything else is easily accessible with Grab
    • It is a nice concept and is well distributed. Price is also good.

    Cons -

    • The cloth of the shelter outside the bus was torn and they didn't change it before we check it. It didn't bother me much as luckily it was not raining the night we did bbq. It rained the morning after and the deck chair and table got wet. imagine if it rained at night when we are bbq-ing. All will be wet.
    • Its a little bit far from the airport
    • Young kids has rashes after a night stays. Nothing much within the bus collection compounds and lighting is poor especially the walkways towards the hawkers center

    I loved this stay! The bus was very clean and comfortable, had everything we needed for an enjoyable short stay and the unique drivers seat was fun. Great location right next to the hawkers market and a really great brewery. Would definitely stay again!

    Bus interior is compact and comfortable and well designed

    A peaceful place (except for the planes flying by frequently) to get away from the busy city live.Room smell nice and reasonable cleanFeels like a luxury chalet. Lots of food and convenience shop nearby (few mins walk) if you choose not to BBQBig outdoor area with bbq pit and sink that sit 4-6 pax comfortablely Changi beach and boat to Ubin just walking distance away.Big tub That fit 2 adults easily.

    Room bit squeezy to walk side by side (as the room is longish)Walking around the compound can be quite hot during day time.

    Location was superb with proximity to food, bars, coast, airport. The bud was so cleverly & beautifully appointed, I was stunned. The gentleman who checked me in was kind, helpful, friendly and patient (I was sleep deprived and dysfunctional).

    Absolutely nothing. Obviously there was some airport noise, but I stayed because of the proximity to the airport so it was to be expected and wasn’t too disturbing at all - I slept well.

    10AndreiPosted on: 4-25-2025

    This was a truly unique and fun stay for our family! Surprisingly spacious and very luxurious inside, it easily fit the four of us. The bed was super comfortable, and with the Singapore heat. The highlight for our boys was definitely the bus’s original steering wheel—they couldn’t get enough of it and nearly fell asleep playing! There’s a lovely patio with a BBQ, but the heat and humidity made it tough to enjoy. Daily bed-making and fresh water bottles were a nice touch.

    Keeping the AC on at all times was essential.

    On-site cleaning staff,

    our card suddenly doesn't work when we r go back our Bus room night time at 2nd day, at the same time, we have no battey of our mobile, luccky that our next car Guest still eating Dinner and helped us to seek the solution. Finally, we meet one on-site cleaning staff that helped us to open the door......

    10JameyPosted on: 4-20-2025

    I was sceptical but optimistic and I was not disappointed at all! Its exactly as pictured and exceeded my expectations. The staff were extremely accommodating even at 11pm! Fast replies to any questions and upon check out, the front office staff helped us find somewhere to do a bit of shopping and even arranged a taxi and communicated with the driver. Such a fun and unique experience. Please Def try the changi hawkers markets for a meal if you can!, a 2 minute walk, cheap food and tasty too!.

    What a quirky and unusual 'hotel.' We loved it! To use old buses that are then renovated/converted to top class accommodation is such a great idea. The nearby hawker eating village is a real bonus as well.

    Nothing!

    9AbigailPosted on: 3-29-2025

    Outstanding customer service from Calvin, who w went above and beyond to be helpful and ensure we had a great stay. An incredibly comfortable and luxurious stay within an incredibly creative and quirky way! The kids absolutely loved it.

    Perhaps a bed railing for the underneath bunk, as we had a 4-year-old and we were nervous he may roll out of bed. But he got to sleep in the master bed, and we was very happy about that!

    8AnnaPosted on: 3-19-2025

    We arrived late and left early. It seems to be close to the airport if you look at the map, but it's actually abouot 15min taxi ride from the airport. Public transport seemed to take about an hour.It was a good place to sleep the night between flights,

    It was a little far from the airport.

    9PascalPosted on: 3-12-2025

    The hotel room and the location, near the more forested area of old Changi city was fantastic. The kids loved staying in a bus.

    The grounds didn't have much other than the buses. However, there is a little park just beside the complex so it wasn't a big deal that there wasn't much of a play area on the grounds.

    10JodyPosted on: 3-9-2025

    Cool concept - very clean and nice touches - close to hawker centre

    We had to leave at 4am and it was difficult to get an uber to the airport!

    8HelinaPosted on: 3-3-2025

    the location was fine and we had our own privacy as it wasnt crowded over the weekend. Meant to be a cosy party for small group. Welcoming & friendly reception while we check in/check out. Need not worry about food as it is just right behind the hawker ctr. The tv comes with netflix & youtube.

    the cleanliness was good until i found out some small little mushrooms growing outside the shower room door. It was not realised until i was kneeling down to wipe the floor. It was not obvious as it was only when you open the shower door against the tile so maybe the housekeeper also didnt realise.. Wanted to take a photo to feedback but find it too gross to even leave a image in my phone space. The bus seat was also torn till i could see the inner sponge. one side of light was also flickering on the main bedroom area but the room was still bright so didnt bother us much. The main light outside the dining area auto switch off at about 9 plus 10 while we are still BBQ-ing. We tried to switch on but it went off after awhile. The lights outside could be more brighter. The stand of the shelter was also hindering the BBQ pit which we had to stand at the side to BBQ. it can be quite noise disturbance if you are a light sleeper. but we understood that the location is near the airport and it cannot be control.

    8DerekPosted on: 2-28-2025

    Location was good! Near the food centre and the Changi Beach Park.

    The fittings and interior of the bus were a little worn for a property this new.

    10Mohammad S. N.Posted on: 2-26-2025

    It was a rare kind of staycay . And the place was clean and so tidy . But maybe do something about the wifi there . The connectivity was lost some time .

    2CECILEPosted on: 2-18-2025

    Location near the market is nice.

    The chemical smell in the room was so strong I could not sleep. I don’t know if they had dropped some detergent or fumigated the place but it was way too strong.

    8ShilpaPosted on: 2-16-2025

    The concept is good

    Ants were an issue. Despite not having any food in the bus, there were ants everywhere. The space is only sufficient for a couple, not a family as the sofa bed is small and can only fit a small child on it.
