Great hostel, especially if you are looking for a quiet place to stay! It is super clean, the staff is very friendly, and the dorm was quiet and tidy. I especially liked the lounge, which tended to also be quiet and was a great place to get some work done (fast Wifi, lots of plug-ins, and free coffee). It's a short bus ride away from attractions, but the bus system worked super reliably, and the hostel offers a bus card too. So definitely doable! All in all I would highly recommend this place.

Very clean and tidy especially in the room and bathrooms. Great view of the city when you’re sitting the common area. It’s a bit further from downtown, but there are plenty of public transit options around taking around 15-20min. Great place to stay if you’re looking for something quieter. Would recommend and stay there again!

Es war sauber, der Check-in und out einfach. Personal war freundlich. Die Lage ist ok, wenn man jedoch ausgehen möchte am Abend spielt sich auf der anderen Seite auf HongKong Island mehr ab. Sozial war es leider nicht, kam mit keinem wirklich ins Gespräch und ich rede gern und viel 😅

i had an ok stay here. there is a common space so it is nice to be able to meet other travelers. the rooms had a/c so it was comfortable to sleep, but i did get eaten alive by a mosquito and noticed a rogue roach in my bed space. there wasn't any where to lock up your luggage, so that felt a bit strange. my main issue was the location. while HK is well connected, it is quite far from the hot spots in the city. it takes about 30 minutes to get to where you want and luckily there is a night bus th...

Staff were great and the hostel is well located to bus and Kowloon activities. I found the mattress old and uncomfortable and the pillows were not clean. I love the no shoes in dorms rule and handy that there were 2 showers and separate toilets in the female dorm. The 'privacy' blinds were a bit redundant as they let all the light out if another dormer had their light on and the tube lights were very bright.

Ok stay. Nice staff. Bu you don’t get what you pay for. Would choose it over Check Inn Hostel though ;)

Room was nice and clean, no atmosphere though and not on HK island so needed to take the metro everywhere. Not worth the price imo. Also the hkd 100 key deposit is extortionate!

A good hostel for Hong Kong. It's not in a central location, but it's easy to grab public transport to wherever you'd like to go. There was filtered water, but not cold. Free coffee in the morning, though not early enough for me to partake. Quiet, which is what I was looking for.

Overall, the property was good although I felt that maybe it wasn’t the most social and no events were held. Very nice experience though

Really good hostel. Pod-style beds which were comfy and private with a blind. I stayed in a 10-bed and it definitely didn’t feel like it. Showers and toilets were good. Staff were lovely and gave a tour of the hostel on arrival. I didn’t use the common room so can’t comment on the social aspect, but people were sat in there. Free tea and coffee. No lockers for large bags, just a small safe for valuables.

Great hostel in HK! The location was perfect, so close to public transport but not in the centre of everything being so busy. Staff super helpful, nice little kitchenette and common area too with drinking water. The bunks have personal safes, curtains and lights. Everything was clean and tidy and I felt super safe. I would stay here again if I ever return to HK.

I wish I could give the staff 6/5 stars. They were wonderful with great restaurant ideas. The location was great as it's not so touristy but still easy to access other parts of the city.

Pros: The staff are super kind and will help with any questions that you might have. The atmosphere is also super welcoming and very inviting for other people to hang out. One of them better hostel atmospheres I’ve had during my travels. Cons: It’s location is far from the major areas of Hong Kong. The bathrooms are okay at best and the curtain for privacy for the beds are thin so when you have the light on it’s pretty much see through.

Location is a bit far, but close enough to a metro to move around. The price was a bit high since you still share the bathroom with the whole hostel, but the living room is a big plus! Also loved the little kitchen.
