to get started.

It was nice staying on this hostel for 3 days. There’s free food for everyone, but no specific breakfast spread. Location was really good provided that there are bus stops nearby. A lot of good restaurants in the area. There’s a near 7-11 and Circle K. Staff are all friendly. Comfort rooms are clean and with privacy.

Great spot in HK, will easy access to buses and food. Decor is super hip and stylish. Loved the bathroom setup, with bathrooms available for use both in and outside the room.

The backpackers hostel was really more than what I paid for. The place is so clean. The bed was really comfortable. The staff was accommodating and friendly. Location was also very convenient whereever you want to go. I will definitely go back to this place should I travel back to hong kong in the future.

I love the fact that their bed bunks are made of wood planks instead of the steel springs. Because of this the bed will not make any sound when the person who sleeps above me flip and turn. I also love the hostel policy where they stop checking people from 11pm onwards... That would allow the residents to get good sleep at night. Lastly, I'm impress with the receptionist's knowledge of the bus routes in that area. Just tell them where you wanna go & they will tell you how to get there.

The hostel was very nice and very clean. One of the better hostels that I've stayed in. The water pressure was sufficient and the temperature was great. Toiletries are also provided as well! The convenience stores next door and opposite were, well, convenient.

“A real hostel in all the right ways!”
- • Leisure trip
- • Solo traveler
- • Stayed 2 nights
Stayed in a mixed dorm (10 beds) with shared bathroom. Everything is a little cramped for space, but so is everything in Hongkong! The common area is very nice and open, but the real plus is the very friendly, helpful and knowledgeable staff who were a great help in navigating HK and staying ahead of any possible trouble in connection with the current Protests. Also, the Location is great for Kowloon!

A bit hot in the room, but the air-conditioning unit can be adjusted. No MTR nearby, but very close to a bus stop! Just beside the hostel. Wifi in the room is slow, but no problem in the lobby area.

Right in the heart of Kowloon, it's easy to go from there to pretty much every corner of Hong Kong, plus you have a few shops nearby where you can get your food and drinks, plus with the amount of small restaurants and places to eat in Hong Kong you're never more than 5 mins away from some proper cooked food.

This hostel was perfect, I wouldn't change anything about it honestly.
This hostel was lovely. It was impeccably clean and well organised. The staff were lovely, accomodating and helpful. The beds were comfortable as well as had pull down drapes so you could have privacy from other guests. The bathrooms were very clean and had basic toiletries, hairdryers and towels available for general use which was helpful for someone staying a small amount of time and hadn't had time nor space to pick up shampoo and conditioner. The common room was also nice, with charging ports, maps, umbrellas, free tea and coffee available for use. The wifi was also very reliable.
