L'etoile de Mer

Total catfish. The pictures shown are nothing like the hostel. There is no view, the windows are obstructed by scaffolding and canvas and just show the street

Hostel befindet sich in einer Sehr guten Lage, jedoch ist der Zugang zum Hostel schwierig und das Einchecken gestaltet sich als unnötig kompliziert. Die Schlafboxen sind etwas Runtergekommen, die Meinsten der Schlafboxen sind dauergemietet.

The check in instructions for this place were entirely unclear. The floor numbers were incorrect. The instructions say to go to a kiosk on the 3rd floor. The kiosk is actually in a completely different area on the 15th floor. There was no human interaction and even getting a different set of instructions from their whatsapp bot was still incorrect. There was no space for luggage storage outside the capsules so everyone’s suitcases and bags were all over the place.

Generally a good place to say. The Price and beds were good, but booking process was a hastle.They had only online communication with the staff and the actual apartment was quite hidden.

The capsules themselves are nice. I love that they lock individually with a key card, though I don't imagine it would be hard to force open. It's a decent place to crash for a night or two. It's extremely difficult to figure out how to get in: the address doesn't match the booking email, and there is zero signage. No reception. Everything is electronic, which would be fine if this info was shared in advance. Not enough lockers for everyone and only 2 baths for 12 people. You can hear all inside.

The hostel isn't what they promise. The bathroom and the pods are clean but there are some people living in the hostel so their stuff is all around the place. One of the permanent residents was having a video call and speaking out loud after 10pm during our stay. The towels they provide are disposable and very thin like paper, not real towels. There isn't hot water every time you take a shower, I had to take a cold shower twice during our stay. However, the manager answers quickly to any message...

Altogether I liked the place BUT definetly no hostel feeling because a lot of employees live here and they have to work. The location is amazing though and causeway bay and area is walkable. Because people live here, it was a littlebit chaotic. The beds were cozy for me but other peole might think the mattress is too thin. It is not my first choice in HK but definetly lower budget and you can ask the roomies for.recommendations. :)

Very nice place. It is not in city centre but close to it. Very safe and well priced. You get what you pay for!

Nice from far, but far from nice. Really needs deeper cleaning and more often. Mattresses are to be changed urgently ! The foam is totally collapsed and therefore the bed is very hard and cruelly lacks of comfort ! Checking instructions are not precise enough. It’s also difficult to get all further instructions such as door codes. Pods give you a kind of intimacy (except from the sounds) but it gets quickly hot inside it. I would still recommend for a night or two.

Bedden zijn aan vervaning toe. Dekens mogen dunner. Verder goede locatie en een fijne accomodatie

The location was great. The wifi isn’t the strongest so alot of the time it would drop. The key card system was a little faulty I kept having to replace my card ( 2 times). The first card I was given didn’t even work on anything so I had to be let in by another tenant. The pods are good and are kind of comfortable. This is not really a social hostel so keep that in mind. But it is a good choice if you’re trying to save some money on your stay in Hong Kong.

Good spot, good for price, comfy beds, not sociable tho, for value for money tho overall quite good

Staff was really nice and helpful. The air conditioning in the capsules was bad, often making it stuffy. Bathrooms were nice. A fellow hostel guest made things extremely uncomfortable for everyone when they woke people up having s**. Wish that could have been addressed because it made it unpleasant. Hard to find as well

Je recommande vivement. Le matelas n’est pas ce qu’il y a de plus confortable mais rien à dire sur la propreté et la sûreté de l’établissement.

Clean and decent for HK, but not at all a hostel vibe and the owner is quite non responsive and it is not that clear how to checkin. No hostel events whatsoever.

La privacidad de la capsula, la ubicación y el precio nada que exigir, muy buen lugar.
