The place was clean and very spacious, it's a hostel room shared with other travelers but the room was very spacious and you never feel like a hassle packing and unpacking your bags. A lot of buses going everywhere in HK.

Awesome environment and stuff. The toliet is quiet clean and comfortable

The amenities and spaces were larger than most affordable hostels in HK. I love how they manage to make the hostel as tourist and user friendly as possible. I love the small waterproof compartment inside each shower area and the built in safe at each bedspace

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.

Our stay was great.
Nice location with the busstop to the airport and port right in front of the door. The common area was spacious and the beds very comfortable. We received early check-in which was great and the dormbed price was great concidering Hong Kong an expensive city. The beds are also comfortable. We would definitely come back.

Very strict about letting us use the room later on check out day with very late flight. We had to book into a new room even though we weren't staying the night. Wouldn't allow us to go back into our almost empty room as it was coming up as sold out on booking.com
Kitchen facilities, bus stops right outside with frequent busses, very spacious, clean and comfortable double bed dorm.

“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!
