We booked 3 rooms. Party of 7. The pictures are extremely DECEITFUL. Actual rooms were FAR FROM PIC SHOWN. Gross bathrooms with cracked sinks, nasty showers with black slime in grout. Hallways were VERY STINKY of smelly oily food. You need to smell this stink for at least 15 mins while waiting for the elevator. This building has no service lift so you go up and down with the trash. And there is only 1 lift going to your floor (2 elevators, 1 going to even, and 1 going to idd # floors). Once we had to wait almost 1 hr and 15 mins because the cleaning maid was getting the trash from each floor and loading trash bags in the lift, disallowing anyone to get on. The management BYPASSES the lift requests by residents to PRIORITIZE TRASH. Someone had to call the elevator people to tell them to get us on- this was our FLIGHT day! SECURITY IS A PROBLEM. Anyone can go in/out of this building, got random knocks on doors from strangers at night that creeped us out. They use actual keys so who knows who has copies of these keys! We paid $185 for 3 nights booked 1 mo ahead. Price dropped to $130 days just 2 days to arrival because NO ONE WAS BOOKING!! Dont be deceived - they have different categories for the rooms, some more expensive bec theyre bigger, but when we got there - ALL ROOMS ARE THE SAME SIZE, ALL CRAPPY!! This is NOT a hotel. These are units owned by someone and he is milking these units for as much $ as he can while spending ZERO on needed repairs for the rooms.
View by elevators WITH STRONG FOUL SMELL!
The actual looks much worse!

Our bathroom door wont even close!

Very comfortable room, with a private washroom in a wonderful location, that is close to transit and downstairs there are tons of cheap delicious restaurants. For the price i have zero complaints, and I would stay here again. Very friendly staff, and you will never be hungry.

The location is perfect and very close to TST station and star ferry. We were not stopped at all by anyone at the entrance so dont really need to worry abt safety. We arrived at 9 pm and there was a long queue at block A and D. Make sure to look carefully which level you are going to as the queue are different. The room is small but its the norm for HK. Toilet is small but able to have a hot bath. Some area need to be cleaned though. Towels and toothpaste toothbrush are provided. No botttled water but microwave and hot water are available at the common shared area. Reception is at level 16 but rooms can be at other levels in blkD or C. Be sure to request for nearby rooms earlier if u book multiple rooms.

Disliked: Cleanliness

Fair price and great location, but smelly

The price was quite good for budget hotel and matched with hotel's quality. The location is very convenient. Lots of stores around at night time. Very easy to travel anywhere due to its location being close to the bus station where many buses and subway connecting to other areas are passing. However, there were some downsides as well. First was the building itself was not very new or clean at all. Second was the elevators, one for odd floors and one for even floors with super low capacity of 5-6 people per trip. It was impossible to handle human traffic at rush hours and in the morning you may need to walk downstairs for 16 floors if you are in a rush. Lastly, the smell is rather unpleasant in the room and it won't go away no matter what. If you have runny nose or have high tolerance with weird smell then you can survive this easily, otherwise, bring some spray.

Good value, clean room

Staff was helpful and kind, the room was clean and well equipped. There's maintenance going on the lifts in the building until 30/04/2017 that results in long queues for people trying to get to their floor. Occasionally had to wait 20-30 minutes or walk up to the 15th floor.

Good hostel but dirty surroundings

The whole hostel is good, it is very near from the MTR station. The bed was good as well as the bathroom. I got annoyed when I realized that when I came back from the tour, the door was left open when I got there because they gave me towel. The building of Chungking Mansions is also dirty especially on the lobby.

Nice Location of the Hotel but not the Building

The Room is very much ok for the budget travelers, it's very clean however the building itself is not, the elevator is small and slow. In case of emergency it will be very difficult to ride the elevator especially the flat is at the top of the building. There are so many Indian Vendors on the ground floor that's looks scary.

Good experience.

We reached Hong Kong a lot earlier than expected, so we went to check out our hostel for the night in hope that we can check in earlier or at least put our luggage there first. (How we got there from airport) Going to Kowloon from the airport, we took a free shuttle bus to Tsim sha tsui and arrived at holiday inn. It was a walking distance from the Chung King Mansions and we arrived really early in the morning. It was a lot earlier than our check in timing, but the receiptionist was really kind and allowed us to check in into a vacant room despite the ungodly hours. ( luckily there was a vacant room and hospitable service !!) The room was really small but cosy. It's good for its price and the necessities are all provided. Wifi is great. The location is perfect, right across the road is the subway to the trains. A step out is a buzzling city filled with shops and eateries, beside and opposite. The only problem was the entrance till the lift. People may crowd around trying to promote their sales, be it food or any products. It can be very pressurizing and scary, but they are just doing their job. Move along and ignore if uninterested, they will give up after awhile and everything will be fine. Given if I were to come back to Hong Kong, I wouldn't mind staying here again. Its a budget alternative but the rooms were more comfortable than expected. Overall good experience.
