Haji Lane near Bugis right? If so got hostels opposite Bugis Junction Beach Road side along Vothr Bridge Road. Dammit hard to remember road names.

Can you give an idea as to your price range? There are a number of hotels ranging from 5* to backpacker accommodation in bugis and the top end of little india. What exactly are you looking for?

What do you mean by "better options" - Sleepy Sams is a backpackers place with very good ratings. Are you looking for a hotel? At that price you are unlikely to get your own room. Dorm rooms in backpackers start at $16 pp and doubles (shared bathrooms) are around $60 per room.
One of the travel sites I monitor has recommended the Haising hotel in Jalan Besar road. It is very central. See the tip about 1/2 way down this page

I have put together a list of some of the backpacker accommodation in the area here:

The other option is to look at the classified section for rooms to rent as you may find short stay options there.
