Hostel 16 Reviews

I really like this hotel. It's affordable compared to other hotels in Hong Kong.

Food there is amazing but. So noisy and construction don’t let you to sleep

Well, it's hard to explain in a few words, but if it's just for one night, it's bearable with some beer. Otherwise, I wouldn't recommend it. P.S. A photo from under the bed is attached.

The room is a bit small, but it's clean. There are many restaurants downstairs, and the service is decent.

I am extremely disappointed with our stay at Hostel 16 in Chungking Mansions First of all, the bedsheets were not clean when we arrived. There were visible stains, and the area under the bed looked like it had not been swept for a very long time. The customer service was also very rude and unhelpful throughout our stay. My aunt even lost her winter jacket during our stay, and the hotel staff did not provide any assistance regarding this matter. I also had an accident inside the hotel because there were no warning signs placed in a hazardous area. This shows a serious lack of concern for guest safety. On top of that, we were asked to pay 300 HKD for maintenance and cleaning fees, but our room was never cleaned even once during our one-week stay. No one collected our trash, even though we placed it outside our door daily. We repeatedly requested room cleaning from the front desk for three consecutive days until we eventually gave up. Clean towels were never available. We had to use the same towel for seven days, and our bedsheets were never changed throughout our entire stay. Security is also a concern. There was only one lock on the door, and one night at around 10:30 PM, someone was knocking on our door without saying anything. We did not open it, and when we asked the front desk about it the next morning, they said they had no idea who it was. Additionally, guests are not allowed to take pictures or videos at the front desk because of a posted sign saying everything there is confidential. This policy seems to work to their advantage, as guests cannot document issues or gather evidence when problems arise. Overall, this was a very unpleasant and unsafe experience. I would not recommend this hotel to anyone.

Located in Chungking Mansions, the surrounding area isn't very clean, and the facilities are quite poor. The good thing is that it's right next to the subway station, only a 5-minute walk away, and about 2 kilometers from Victoria Harbour.

Very pleasant atmosphere

The place was easy to find and the staff was kind. Tha room was good but the environment is a little bit louder.

Absolutely terrible. I've never stayed in such a bad hotel. It was dirty and cramped, and the ground floor was full of all sorts of people; it smelled and was a mess. The owner had a horrible attitude and completely ignored me. The room door didn't even have a lock, so there was no security whatsoever. This place has no standards.

Very gross and disgusting hotel and unfriendly staff. The cockroaches are very nice and with alot, they tried to cuddle with me in bed. There is a smell of curry spiced **** in the whole building. Plenty of brown, white, red and yellow stains in the bed and sheets, very colorful like a rainbow! You never shower alone, there are always many kinds of fungi ready to party with you. By sleeping there 2 days I lost 10 years of my life.... don’t go there!

Everything is dirty 😔 no towels no toilet paper bad experience 😔don't stay this place 😭

The hostel is very clean and in a good location near the city center

The hotel's location is excellent, right in the city center, making it incredibly convenient to get around. The owner is a foreigner, very enthusiastic, and I highly recommend them. It's located in Chungking Mansions in the heart of Tsim Sha Tsui, and the best part is the super high value for money.

This place was awful, I only stayed one night and then left. It's truly uninhabitable and a complete waste of money. The room was tiny, the bedding wasn't even white, I didn't dare use it. It looks nothing like the pictures – it's much worse in reality. Plus, it's mostly foreigners here, I wouldn't recommend it for Chinese guests, it felt quite scary. The front desk only speaks English, and they don't understand Chinese, so if you don't speak English, you'll have a hard time. I suffered through one night and fled early the next morning at 7 AM. I'm never going back to Hong Kong; this accommodation was an absolute nightmare.
