NOT the same as the picture, and no window in this smallest room, and it was uncomfortable to sit on the double bed which caused my back to be sore to read. The worst is not the same hostel booked and need to change to a different hostel from block E 16th floor to block C 14th floor. It was a long trip just to check in. An extra additional charge of HK$187.00 for cleaning for 7 days.

No credit or refund, lost all our money

We did not stay as this was a non refundable, which we had paid in full months before Covid started. We were not assisted in anyway to get a credit or refund so the booking came and went and we were still at home. Enjoy our money, unfortunately we did not have that opportunity.

You get what you paid for. Hong Kong is very expensive and this place was cheap. The room was literally a hole in the wall. The towels were changed everyday and everyday I will find stains in them. The building had this terrible smell which would never go away. Only book it if you are in a tight budget and will only go to the room to sleep.

The family room was too small for three people(9 square meter). We have to pay 195 HKD for cleaning in extra for 9 square meter room. Expedia makes me feel very disappointed for room standard and extra fee without knowing in advance!!! Hostel is located in excellent location and a lot of Indian people.

太可怕了 住宿地點很難尋找 在重慶大廈裡面 要先經過一堆東南亞或是非洲人的騷擾 進去房間後 窗戶無法開關 房間很悶 還有奇怪的香水味 聞久會頭暈 很危險 房門只有喇叭鎖 隔音也差 完全聽得到隔壁房間的聲音 夜晚還有尖叫聲很可怕 冷氣聲音很大 住宿的老闆好像是印度人 走廊本是房客自由走動的地方 聊天時還有監視器監視著 一聊天房東還帶另一名印度人一起過來叫我們不要在走廊聊天 還問我們在聊什麼（黑人問號）加上我們只有兩個女生入住 真的非常危險 我們勉強住了一晚隔天早上直接去住大飯店了 建議在平台直接購買機加酒的旅客要三思 尤其是只有女生入住非常危險 可以上網查這棟大廈之後再決定要不要入住 除非你膽子大 否則千萬不要衝動啊

Hay que pagar un 10% del total de la reserva

Te cobran un 10% del total de la reserva en concepto de limpieza, me parece que eso va al bolsillo del que está allí, pero si no pagas no te dan la habitación. Eso no se publica en la página, te lo envian una vez está confirmada la reserva, así que si no tienes cancelación pagas si o si. Un día entraron a la habitación sin nuestro permiso y dejaron la puerta abierta, pudiendo entrar cualquiera allí. Es una habitación muy pequeña, solo hay una pequeña entrada y la cama, con un mini baño que parece un armario. La ubicación si es bastante buena, para subir a la habitación hay que esperar unas interminables colas para coger el ascensor.

Dåligt förstaintryck då hostellet ligger inne i ett lite sketchy guesthouse-komplex och det var svårt att hitta uppgången. Incheckning sker i block A våning 17 medan vissa av rummen låg vid block E. Väl på plats var rummen OK. Små rum men det räckte. Placeringen av hostellet var bra - supernära till tunnelbanan så det var lätt att ta sig runt i staden. Allt som allt var vistelsen helt OK. Ingen superbra men inte heller superdåligt. Rekommenderas dock inte för familjer o.s.v utan mer för backpackers eller liknande.

Very difficult review. Positive: Location the best.Closeto everything , MTR, Harbor, Malls, nifgt market -Staff, very helpful people. We were there just the day before the typhoon. They helped with transport next day and they always pending of everything. Even though the extremely small room, bed were comfortable. Negative: Elevator. 1 small elevator (5 or 6 ppl)for all building. You have to make long lines at first floor to catch it. The worst thing. Never saw something like that. Room super small, if you tall more than 5'9 you may not fit , serioulsy. No space for bags just under the bed. Shower is over the toilet no more than 5 ft wide toilet +shower. But we had great time there., thats why I said is a difficult review. In conclusion , besides the elevator I would recommend this place.

Excellent value for money in Kowloon

Very clean hotel/room. Location is excellent - opposite MTR and airport bus A21 just at the door step. Ferry to Hong Kong and Macau within 10 mins walk away. Excellent WiFi in room and free drinking water. Plenty of shopping around. Space is very small - as with most rooms in Hong Kong. Lift is a big problem. Reception and room in different block but signage is clear. Will return for future stay.

As expected, the room was very small. If you have more than 2 luggages , this type of hostel is not for you. The refrigerator in the common area is not working. The Reception of the hostel is FAR from the rooms. The location of the hostel is 7/F block E, while the the reception area is between 11th-15th floor of Block A. You still need to go to Block A before you check-in or call the telephone no. provided at the entrance of the rooms. Maybe the hostel manager/owner should put it in the check-in instructions. You cannot leave your luggages after checkout in the block where the rooms are located because there will be no one who will assist you. You still need to bring all your luggages to Block A.

Good location and price

I had a 1 night layover in Hong Kong and I just needed a cheap, clean place to stay for 1 night and this place certainly did the trick, at a good price. There is nothing fancy here but the guy at the front desk was nice enough to upgrade my room free of cost and he has kept the rooms nice and clean. So if you're looking for a simple place close to the city center that doesn't cost much, I'd recommend.

친철하고 배려가 느껴진 시드니

여러번 홍콩숙박결과 가격 대비 나쁘지 않았습니다. 청킹맨션 숙소 첨 이용해봤네요. 처음엔 사람도 많고 슬럽화가 되다보니 약간의 거부감도 있고. . 하지만 주인 정말 친절하고 깨끗하고 배려하기 위한준비가 곳곳에 느껴 지더군요. 비싼 호텔은 비싼값을 하고 저렴하면 또 그에 걸맞는 적당함도 필요하구요. 일때문에 급하게 잠만 자고 올 일이어서 저렴한곳 선택을 하였지만 나쁘지 않았습니다. 고급지고 안락한 여행만 다니신 분이라면 비추이구요. 힘들고 아껴가며 배낭여행식으로 다니신 분이라면 추천할만 합니다. 저도 여행 스똴이 후자 쪽이라. . .

できるだけ宿泊費を抑えたい方はありかなと思います

立地、値段はよく、部屋も綺麗に掃除されていましたが、正直清潔感はあまりありませんでした。 一人旅、バックパッカーで安さ重視な問題ないと思いますが、ビジネスや小旅行などは少し清潔感、サービスにかけると思います。あと、チェックインカウンターと部屋が別の場所にあったので、見つける際にかなり迷いました。スタッフの対応はとてもフレンドリーで良かったです。
