Clean, our laundry was washed all day for free. Besides the double bed there were around 3 square meters of empty space and a private toilet. Not huge but valuable for price and location.

If you can endure the chung king mansions this is a decent guest house. The lady who runs it is very sweet and keeps the (extremely tiny) rooms clean. Similar to other guest houses I've stayed at in Chung king. The mansions themselves, other than being ironically named, are generally sketchy and borderline terrifying at times. But we only saw 1 drug deal and only had the police wake us up to check IDs once. Harbour is on the 4th floor which allows you to use the stairs. Avoid the elevators.

take long time & long Que to use lift because too many people using it. The location is very good in term of strategic places, very near to shopping area, bus stop, MTR Station. For a Muslim, there are so many halal food & restaurant at ground level of building. 500 meters from Kowloon Mosque.

Unfriendly staff told me that she was soon to give my room away because of my late arrival....hello lady, i cannot control air traffic. Bed sheets were conveniently colored patterned....would really not bet on the cleanliness. The toilet paper roll had 2 sheets left in it.....but hey fortunatly the shower was above the toilet seat... How convenient. I frankly felt robbed and dirty after leaving the place the next day.

After staying in another horrible hostel, this one felt like heaven. The room was sooo clean AND had a window (uncommon for this price in hongkong). The lady working there was very nice and helpful. I would definitly stay here again. I killed one huge cockroach in the toilet, but I think they are very common in the city.

The room and bathroom is quite small, but it is sufficient for staying and value for expense. The hostel location is nearby the shopping area and subway. The staff is kindly for any supports.

The location can't be beat but the hostel is pretty ugly, not terribly clean, and navigating through the mass of shady looking characters at the entrance is not fun. Oh, and the line for the lift to the rooms is complicated at first and takes forever at all hours of the day.

Public toilet didn't work, I went to a mall nearby and used their EXCELLENT facilities. Still, room was clean and the door sturdy. Staff spoke enough English to do business, and one of them spoke Mandarin so I was going on with her. Pretty friendly, though you'll receive PLENTY of reminders to leave once check out time starts drawing near. I was there to take care of visa business, and the staff gave me a map and instructions to get it done!

The staff is really kind and helpful. Although the room is a little small (about 10 square meters), but it's enough for staying one night. The location is excellent that it nears Tsim Sha Tsui, it's very convenient to go to any places by MTR or Bus. If you would like to stay only a couple days and you concerned about the pricing and locations , I would like to recommend Habour Guest Room for you.

Great hostel! The entrance of Chungking mansion ( which is where a number of hostels are at) because of the infestation of shady looking Indian people constantly asking you if you want a place to stay, hashish to smoke, a suite to be tailored, or a fake Rolex to buy. Once you get to your floor its safe and clean. The Housekeeper was really sweet. Her name is Mana and has been fantastic. Security is fine. Its easy to be thrown off by the infestation of Indian people a

Thanks for cleaning the room everyday. I would hope they provide clothes dryer for those who need to dry their wet towel or clothes. Also, there was a problem with the toilet at room No. 4, as we have to flush more than once after each usage. I hope they can fix that. Overall, I hope they keep on with their good effort.

Like staying in a jail!! I really dont recommend this place. Water started coming through the ceiling onto my bed during my stay. If i was going again, I would certainly splash out a little extra and stay somewhere nicer. The whole ChungKing Mansions area is best avoided I feel.

The staff was great, very accommodating. The area is clean and quiet. So far i had a great stay with the hostel but except for those indians whose outside the mansion trying to pissed the tourist so that they will earn commission. Never let them intimidate you, just passed by and ignore those indians. Be careful and dont trust them.

Extremely small one bed private, but has a bed, and about the space of another bed - but only used it to sleep, so too much space is normally wasted, air con. Ladies running it were very nice and friendly. Once booked they send through perfect directions to the hostel.

We were pleasantly surprised by the size of the 3 bed room. The double room was pretty small, but not unsual for Hong Kong. The place was clean, Mr Francis and his team were lovely and helpful. Location was amazing. The lifts are seriously overworked, so we walked the stairs some days. The touts outside are annoying but not alarming. My only comment was that the mattresses were pretty hard. Would stay there again though. Cheap and cheerful.
