The location on nathan road was very convenient though, but would probably pay a bit more for better standard next time.close

Could be little bit dangerous for woman. I think this hostel is not that good for single asian woman and at the same time for tall guy. Because the bed was really small even for me(asian girl, height 163cm. And I couldn't sleep for whole night, because of the noisy airconditioner.

I thought this was a very nice place in a very central location. My only caution would be to single female travelers, you must take an elevator up to the guesthouse and there were times that I did not feel safe in the elevator.

They look not so good. But we were surprised,Maple leaf have main door locked all time. It looks very safe. The walkway outside also very clean.Hostel upgraded a double room to triple room at no extra charge. All rooms are very clean, We reaaly recommend Maple leaf as a first choice.

The owner came to pick me up from the bus stop due to the late arrival of the plane (Thanks for that!) It is HK so most of the rooms are really small and located in old mansions where many people leave; but I stayed in a refurbished room really conformtable.

the hostel was very clean and in a fantastic location. the manager was very helpful and friendly. clean towels and bed linen everyday! only downfall is that getting to the 12th floor of the hostel was a little intimidating (perhaps not the best for a young female traveller alone)

I was in Hong Kong for a long weekend and traveling alone. Even though the building itself is a little sketchy, I felt really safe in this hostel. The rooms were small but very clean.

Even though the building itself is a little sketchy, I felt really safe in this hostel. The rooms were small but very clean. There was hot water, A/C, all the comforts. The owner is really nice, helpful, and not trying to scam you. Main drawback is there wasn't any easy way to meet people in the hostel - no central hangout. Other than that, a good pick in Chungking Mansion.close

Small rooms, clean shower/toliet, LOTS OF TOUTERS!! We took about 15 to 20 minutes just getting through them all just to get to our room! Good beds, great aircon, it was in a ok location but expensive. Stay on Hong Kong Island if you can, but if not, this is a good place.

The Chunking Mansion building is almost frightening but the guest house itself is very clean and the staff friendly. The rooms are very small but the location is perfect.

Was in a good location and felt safe.Staff is friendly and polite.Our room was tiny, as per typical Hong Kong standards, but spotlessly clean.Enjoyed the free wi-fi. Great value for money.Will stay there again!!

The room also has a phone which is free to use for local landline and mobile calls in HK.Mr.John was very helpful and gave us his card to ring if we had any problems.A highly recommended guesthouse if you wish in stay in Chungking Mansions.close

Room was very small but clean and location was also great, staff was helpful but wasnt around much, recommending for couples since it is quiet but not for single girls since I felt quite uncomfortable walking around Chung King Mansion by myself
