This was My first hostel in HongKong. Uhm....It was difficult for me to find the hostel. Because the street was so crowded.and, People dont know well where the hostel is... I stayed in 4 mixed dormitary. But, the terrible thing is only one bathroom in 3 rooms(12 people.) But, the price is cheap. and close to station.(Of course many shopping mall)

I had my 4 nights here at Ah Shan Hostel. My overall comment is good, the most important is the room and toilet are clean! Good job! The only weak point is the room got a little bit small, but overall is good! I will be back when I travel to Hong Kong again. :)

Nice, clean, small room. We had a twin room. The staff helped us book a trip to Macau. Nice stay all together.

The staff was lovely. They had an answer for every question and were very helpful when it came to sightseeing. I couldn't have asked for anything better concerning the staff.

Some staffs are friendly but some are just so-so. The location is great! Only few walks from Mongkok MTR, opposite of Lady market and full of various shops and restaurants. The room is small as it should be. But we found some water on the floor when we entered the room. Anyway, what i don't like is our booking was "twin deluxe" but the staff said the room was unavailable and "upgraded" our room to room for 4 people, or dormitory. But i don't think it's "upgraded". It's "downgraded".

There are several hostels in the building Sincere House. The entrance was a little hard to find, it's on the side of the building rather than at the front, the front takes you to a mall of digital stores. Once you find the side entrance, there's a guard at the front who will tell you which floor you need. I felt more secure seeing there was a guard. The single room is small and has no window, but clean. Free computer and internet. Good value & place to sleep and drop your bag, but not hang out.

Solid choice if you're not looking to stay in Chunking Mansions. Near by Mong Kok MTR. Convenient location. Shared bathrooms clean enough. Good option.

Thank you to the staff and owners, especially Ms Fiona who was very accommodating and Ms Yolly who made sure we were okay. For budget-conscious backpackers, this is the place - affordable accommodation, very near to shops and restaurants, and very accessible to mtr and buses.

There is only one shared shower/toilet room and single room was really small, but that's typical in HK. Staff wasn't particularly nice or mean. Fine for travelers just needing a place to clean up and rest. Location is great!

checking in super early was a bit hard. the lady assigned to wait for us posted a different phone no for us to call her to wake her up. the phone was ringing for like 10 minutes without anyone answering it. luckily their other phone no was posted on their door which we tried and got an answer on the first ring. the lady who assisted us was a bit irate at first coz we called a different no from the instruction. the rest of their service were good.

I wasn't inform that the Hostel only accept cash for payment. Since I paid the deposit during booking with Visa, I assume that the balance payment can be paid using my Visa card. Luckily I have enough cash during my stay in Hong Kong.

we stayed for 4 nights in a 4 bed private room with my family. the room is very small just enough for sleep, toilet is small also. but take note it's a budget hotel. but what matter most the room is very clean as well as the toilet. location is good near mtr station and foodshops just nearby.

When we first arrived, there was one lady who was very rude saying we could not stay there if we did not print out the sheet. We ignored her and talked to another person who found our information right away. (Even if she didn't it would have been easy to look up the information on wi-fi). There were no problems after that. Clean. Easy access to metro.

It is very cheap and you get what you pay for, a room with a bed and TV. Also, internet in the room, big plus for that. Staff was very friendly and rooms and toilet were always clean. Location is good, depending on your demands. Just by the Mong Kok MTR station, takes about 10-15 min to Hong Kong island. I would recommend it to anyone on a budget!

Although the room is a bit small for 2 persons, but that is to be expected in land scarce Hong Kong. Free and fast Wifi in the room, which makes it a breeze to do some last minute research on the places we are going.
