Hi all,

I'm going to Hong Kong and would like to find a good place to stay in. I really want it to be cheap, and would prefer a guesthouse or hostel-like atmosphere. I still really do like the hostel experience (meeting other people to travel with is always good) rather than just staying in a hotel all by my lonesome.

Any recommendations?

Hostels?

Guesthouses?

... Maybe a hotel, but gotta be cheap...

Chungking Mansions. Cheap and good location. Not a hostel, but it's an experience.

YMCA Kowloon (The Salisbury) has a dorm room. It's about 25 US dollars a night, if I remember correctly.

I agree. Don't stay at Chung King. Here is where I stayed last October.

They don't take credit cards, but you can still reserve a room.
