I stayed in the private room with double bed and private bathroom. The room is very small with no views (there’s a window but it leads nowhere) so can be a bit claustrophobic but due to me being outside most of the time and it’s a short stay it wasn’t a big issue for me. It felt separated from the hostel unit because it’s on 3rd floor of the whole apartment building while the hostel reception, common area, and dorms are on 2nd floor. So to get water, for example, I have to take an elevator down and enter the hostel through it’s front door again as if I’m coming from outside. But again, this isn’t a big issue for me. The bathroom is small, the shower is right above the sink, but at least water pressure is fine and the hot water is decent. I had to leave my luggage after checkout because my flight was later in the evening and I still had one more conference day that day. The luggage storage system is very lax, you basically just drop your stuff on the rack and they don’t use any marking/numbering system. They didn’t verify my ID when I came back to pick them up later, perhaps because they don’t have a lot of guests at once and they remember everyone? Not sure if this is wise but it does reflect a high level of trust.
To me the best part of this hostel is the location. I was in Wan Chai for a conference and having a low budget it helps to stay in an affordable accommodation within walking distance from the conference venue. Also amenities are really close, there’s a drugstore and atm just outside the building and a burger place (with veggie burgers!) less than 200m away. Also, travel from and to the airport is very easy: the bus stops are literally around the corner both ways.
