Loved it! I’ve always wanted to stay at Chungking Mansions and the Ashoka was great. It’s a bit of a crazy mad environment downstairs but everyone was friendly and I felt very safe (travelling on my own). The price for the location is tip top! Thank you.

The elevator doesn't work properly. The room smells like feces. It's not a proper hostel. The reviews are fake. They pressure you to send a review and give bad service if you don't give a good review. They offered to store my bag, but because I didn't give a review I felt like things might get stolen. I feel bad for some of the staff. I wonder how many fake reviews they're going to have to make to fix this one.
