Quick question for the Singapore regulars — has anything changed in the last few months?
I was there 6 months ago and had a great time but I've heard things are quieter than usual.
Worth going back or should I try somewhere new?
Cheers

I was there in February and prices were exactly as described.
Spent about $60/day all-in. Quality was good.
My tip: the late night crowd is different.

Spot on with the prices. That matches what I paid in February.

What was your total spend roughly? Trying to budget for mine.

Interesting take but I think you overpaid. Try using a different site next time.

Been going for years. The scene has shifted a bit but still good.
