HK Hostel

Helpful owner

it’s the most dirty hostel i’ve ever been, no stuff around no instructions been sent through email, i had to write on whatsapp, stuff being nice and kind, but at the beginning i came to wrong place because it was written in email with confirmation

If you're going to stay in a guesthouse, I think you'd rather stay up all night. 1. It took me a long time and waste of time to find the right place because I got the wrong address to the voucher that was sent via email. However, the host didn't seem sorry at all. 2. The first time I went to bed, I found trash, dust, hair, bugs on the bunker bed and the room condition is not good. 3. It seems to be used as a living space, not a guest house, which is very different from the picture. The refund after payment is a system that the host must acppet, but the host did not accept it, so I was forced to stay there.

Let's start off with what's good about booking this hostel. Overall, the location and proximity is very good because of how close it is to Mongkok station. Fa Yuen Street Market, Ladies Market, and Sneakers Street are the main points of interest in Mongkok. These places I mentioned are just a couple minutes away from HK hostel. Now, let's talk about the service and amenities. HK hostel is a budget hostel so I wasn't expecting a top-tier service. It was below average. The room given to me was very small. I saw the room I stayed at beforehand but I didn't know it was actually small irl. I would compare my room to a matchbox (not exaggerating lol). I want to change my room to a bigger one but I guess the hostel was fully booked because of CNY. What made my stay nightmare-ish was the noise coming from the clothes dryer. Each time someone uses the dryer machine, I'll get startled because of the terrible noise that resonates throughout the halls of the hostel. It was painfully disturbing and I didn't have a sound sleep because of the noise. Be prepared for the loud noises from other rooms as well. Since walls are thin and flimsy, noise can pass through easily. It also smelled like smoke inside the hostel and it never went away until the day I left. The amenities and facilities are so so. The bathroom is squeaky clean (with warm and cold water), the sink has running water, there's a fridge as well. The amenities were just good for the price you paid. There's no front desk staff to bring your queries to. You have to contact the front desk staff in advance through We Chat to make your booking seamless and hassle-free. To sum it up, this hostel will be suitable for people who: 1. Want to be close to Mongkok city center and Mongkok MTR Station. 2. Budget traveller who doesn't care so much about hotel beauty and aesthetics. 3. Someone who has a tight budget but still wants to enjoy Hong Kong.

It is small but clean.The walls are thin so I could hear everything happening outside.

I thought I slept inside a closet at first time. After I tried to check in staff said there no room for me and put me

Hostel is at convenient place.

very narrow and uncomfortable

The boss so friendly and the hostel near in subway station, good experience
