Can add a air fresher in the room, because there are smelly when I walk into the room. There have a young girl staff seem like blur for room facilitities >_< when we can't switch on the air-condition, and give her some comment, she just turn back to look in the mirror and tidy up her cloth .... OMG. But one of the man staff are very good service, can give his a like^_^ Overall is good.

I booked a single room with private bathroom. The room was very small and wasn´t clean. The location is great, only one block from the subway station.

It's cheap and safe. The photos do not match what you actually get. Had to check in one place then get escorted to another place. Bed was really hard, if you want to sleep maybe this is not your place. It's extremely safe and a great location. Great Wifi and bathroom was good.

The location is wonderful. Cheap but not clean. We found a cockroach in the bedroom.

- Internet almost never working even near the hostel counter; cannot withstand the number of people who need to use it. - toilet in our room was leaking and the problem was reported on the first day and nothing was done to solve the problem during our whole stay; we had to close the water pipe manually to prevent the toilet from leaking - overall cleaning is limited emptying the trash; they don't clean the floor or not well enough so that you cannot walk on the floor without slippers or shoes.

The location was really good. Right in the middle of the city, near the water. They weird part was that it was literally someones house that was cleared out for people to stay. There was a housekeeper that slept in the living room the whole night. I think they overbook the hostel, then pay people to house guest in their homes. There was literally pictures of the owner and his wife in the livingroom. With all that said, the owner and housekeeper were really nice and friendly. Only stayed 1 night.

they told me i got a double room which was what i had payed for but that tiny little closet I got could not have been for two persons. The staff was very nice and the location good but i really think they screwed me on that one. So be on your guard when here.

Very basic hostel compared to others, on the 3rd floor, but central to everything main streets and shops. Staff were helpful for directions and we booked the big bus tour with them. Rooms very basic, we shared a 4 bed dorm and a separate bathroom. Hotwater was probably the hardest thing to get, with having to turn it on in advance of showers. Other than that it was grand, doesn't provide food and wifi wasn't always the greatest. But grand for backpackers which we are.

No frills. Basics. Not an immaculate hotel. Dingy place to crash. But if you're not delicate it's fine. Great location. Nice staff. Customers upbeat and livin' it up in HK. Directions TO very poor.
