This is a Trusted Review. Why?

The hostel has a really great location, just next to the metro, starbucks and in the heart of Kowloon.
Just 5 minutes away from the avenue of stars, you can find a lot of restaurants and shops around it.
The rooms are clean and have a great view on Nathan Road. They have aircon, TV, and FREE WIFI. The staff is really nice and helpful. If you have a low budget Ashoka is a really great place.

This is a Trusted Review. Why?

Overall, I would say that this hotel is not a good choice for staying as a backpacker. The location, yes, it is good to access to other places, but I would say it's not a safe place in Hong Kong. I maybe get a bad image of Hong Kong because of where I was staying... It is dirty, and you should be careful at night (alone) if you decide to stay there. Service is not good, the owner is not much friendly to us; he seemed not to feel free when we ask him about information all around. He doesn't willing to help me much(I can say he is not friendly). I saw other reviews that most cheap hostels in Hong Kong are bad, (yeah, that's true). It is terrible compare to other cities I have visited.
