Don't stay here. There are plenty of other places in the same price bracket. Awful place to stay and over priced for what it is. Had a twin room and there were some sort of midges crawling around on top of the other bed. These are flats converted into tiny rooms. No windows. Seriously look either.

The check in was very easy. The ac in our original room was not working, so the receptionist transferred us to another room and set up the ac for us. All of the staffs are very accommodating and speaks English. Their front desk is also 24hours so its fine that we checked in very late. They also offer concierge service for free.

Not having good experience
+ friendly staff, cold aircond, got security guard - we stayed in 1 double decker with 1 double bed room. Room spacious is really really limited till only allow 1 pax to walk to the bed. Toilet is small. No space to turn around as the WC is just under the shower. Got bugs bit me and my niece after overnight there. But the other 2 paxs were ok.

Nice little budget hostel, close to everything
If you're looking for budget accommodation in Hong Kong, check out Ah Shan hostel in Mongkok area. It's very convenient, close to a lot of small cafes, Ladies' market, sneaker street, gold fish market, etc. It's right smack in the middle of everything and the MTR is only a few minutes away. The unit is clean, staff are friendly, good enough wifi. They provide soap and shampoo, but towels are not free. Checkin and checkout was a breeze. Overall, it was a wonderful stay.

Location was good but the hostel is very old and many things not in working conditions. We booked 2 rooms and 1 of it the air conditioning was not working and had no window and my friend couldn’t sleep the whole night as was told that they have no other room available. The mattress in my room have a weird sound at slightest movement n the blanket n sheets looked like they been working used for years. Toilet door handle was demaged n not replaced and opening from inside was a challenged.

OK hostel
The hostel is a series of little rooms located within a very old building. First, you'll need to get up to their reception on the 14th floor. Check in was quick. The reception will ask you if you need towels and toothbrush. Then will bring you to the room which could be anywhere in the building. You'll walk pass other residents' laundry in the corridor til you get to your hostel. You'll enter that door and within that door, you'll see several rooms. Your should be one of them. Drinking water is usually in the common area. Walls are thin so you might hear the other guests. Rooms are decent - not smelly. Bathroom is tiny. Usually, the room has nothing else other than a little table and your bed. Yes, it's got aircon. Overall, it's OK.
