Dragon Hostel

Please review the photos I posted first before reading my review. Did you see my photos? Good; now, let’s discuss the accommodations:
First, getting to Dragon Hostel from Hong Kong Airport was very cool and easy because there’s a bus=A 21 that will drop you off around the corner from the Dragon Hostel (
). The Hostel is close to the ⁷⁄₁₁ Store, Ladies’ Night Market, Langham Place Shopping Center, the Hong Kong Metro, bus terminal/​shopping mall up the street from Dragon Hostel, restaurants, etc.
Second, the showers and bathrooms are down the hall from the room where I stayed; the showers are not very clean so, I had to clean both the shower and the bathroom BEFORE using them: It’s not Dragon Hostel’s fault because they do clean daily but, people staying at the Hostel aren’t mindfully considerate of others using the facilities. The housekeeper noticed I was cleaning the shower and the bathroom every time I was ready to take a shower or use the toilet; she was very kind to me, always telling me, «Shei-​shei!» and bowing humbly towards me! WHOA~She did a 90-​degrees bowing!!!
Third, there are all sorts of restaurants, shops, and things to do in Mongkok due to the Metro is close by so, the size of the room was alright. .. Since I was always running around sightseeing Hong Kong-​I just wish the room where I stayed had a window; having no window felt very depressed and looking up at the ceiling wasn’t comforting, either!
Anyway, overall, my stay at Dragon Hostel was alright but, I think next time, I’m going to inquire if there’s a room with a window!!!

Dragon Hostel was the 3^rd hostel I stayed at. The address for this place was the entrance to a mini shopping complex, so when we had walked around and found the creepiest elevator you only find in a HK horror movie to take to their floor, my coworker and I braved the most unconventional way of finding this place.
When we walked out of the elevator into the apartment complex, it looked like the apartment area of Rigor Mortis. Mind you this was only our third hostel and we had seen only a few apartments in Hong Kong so everything reminded us of Rigor Mortis. The actual entrance is on the side street to the right of the shopping complex right behind the place where they sell fishballs and street food.
The check-​in was smooth and though my co-​worker and I had booked the same kind of single room he was in a larger room with a double sized/​full mattress while I had like ²⁄₃ the size of his room with a twin. There was AC but no ventilation so the room always smelled musky. It was clean and had several outlets and a small box tv. The bathroom was shared so it was super tiny and almost impossible to shower in, though they do provide some kind of soap to wash with.
And also, there was free wifi that was slow during the day but much faster in the middle of the night and early morning. The fastest speed I got was about 1GB/​s. There’s also free drinking water and discounted tickets for places like Disney, Ocean Park, and Nong Ping 360.
If you’re really desperate to find a place to stay where you don’t have to share a room with other people just get a hotel room for HKD$ 545 than stay in a single here for HKD$ 245. Dragon Hostel was like an upgrade from ChungKing Mansions, not as shady or dirty but just as old and musky. If sharing a room isn’t a problem get a hostel room at Check-​inn at Wanchai or Yesinn @Causeway Bay. Better location, meet new people, and has a cleaner more modern feel.
