It's a really nice place. The staff are friendly and helpful, and the facilities are great. Comfy bed and air conditioned room. Modern, clean bathrooms. Spacious and well furnished common area, with pay television, a desktop PC and (I think I remember seeing) some games and books too.
Breakfast is basic (bread/toast with spreads and cerials that you prepare yourself), but you have access to a microwave, hot water, and crockery and cutlery to make your own thing anytime too, which was great for me :) Doubling as a cafe means you can get a descent drink anytime through the day too.
Despite the comforts and abundant space, unfortunately, it's not much of a social place and fairly quiet most of the time. I'd advise to go somewhere else if you're looking for a social or party vibe. This is, however, a positive if you're looking for a more chilled and/or private stay, and/or you have work to get done.
There are convenience stores and a supermarket, fast food, and local/street food super close. And, I think there is a mall or two with cinemas not to far away too.
Transport from the hostel is easy, with the skyrail five or so minutes walk away [and at the time I was there, the extension of the line to go right past the hostel was in progress]. There are also some bus stops with quite a few routes close by. Otherwise you can easily get a Grab or Line taxi.
