80%Hongkong Lucky Hostel

Booked to stay in Lucky hostel but ended up in Osaka hostel even after talking to the manager (he sent me his photo). Room was good enough for me so didn't complain. I think everyone in the building are mates with each other so if one hostel is full they will just place people in other hostels.... more Booked to stay in Lucky hostel but ended up in Osaka hostel even after talking to the manager (he sent me his photo).

Room smaller than a jail cell, very clean with personal bathroom, secure, location was excellent, MTR station just outside, walking distance to the bay. Overall a very good place to stayclose

Difficult to find and difficult staff make this place a no-go. However, it is cheap and you get what you pay for, although I didn't because they got my booking wrong and I spent one night in a different hostel on a different floor but in the same building!

The actual rooms are typically what you get in HK for this price and they are relatively clean, but the whole building I found has a uneasy unrelaxing feel. There is no internet depite what hostelworld says (except wifi), you have to go to the market down stairs. The lower floor of the building is a market. Its a bit dodgy, but not dangerous.close

Just a bed, crashing in HK for a couple of nights, somewhere easy to get to and from the airport, centrally located, and a room to myself. Room was small but that's all that was needed, everything was newly renovated and clean, got looked after well when I checked in, and as long as you follow their instructions you should be fine! Good character around the place, really a good way to experience HKclose

It cheats hostel. I paid money for Lucky hotel but I got another hostel. By the way, Officer said that if you does not agree, you get out without return money. So Please careful reserve hostel in HK coz Reception has more one hostel, ie. Tom's Guest House, Lucky Hostel, Las Vegas Hostel.

Every backpacker has to stay in the Chunk King mansions one time in their life. It's sort of a right of passage in a way. That being said, the rooms are VERY small, there is no hostel atmosphere, and neither the a/c nor the hot water worked in my room. While the hostel's inside was fairly clean,... more Every backpacker has to stay in the Chunk King mansions one time in their life. It's sort of a right of passage in a way. That being said, the rooms are VERY small, there is no hostel atmosphere, and neither the a/c nor the hot water worked in my room. While the hostel's inside was fairly clean, the rest of the place was pretty seedy. It is in a fairly good location. If you are looking for a cheap place to stay and want a single room all by yourself, then stay here. Otherwise, there are better choices.close

This hostel offers cubicle size rooms, with a window facing an air draft with no light, and curry smelling rooms. I would not recommend this hostel to a single woman, since you have to enter a building with many people "attacking" you to buy something, who are non-Chinese. Would not...
