Hong Kong isn't cheap and if you would like to avoid the backpacker haunts, the YWCA is one option. It also isn't cheap, but for the price, you get a decent room with a good location.

Liked: my room (size, cleanliness), my view (of the park), the price Didn't like: various interactions with the staff who didn't share the common sentiment that "the customer is always right"

Stayed here for two nights in November 2011. Clean and quiet room, very friendly staff throughout the hotel, large room. This is a fairly new and very well kept property.

dt : 10 oct 2009 we have seen this hotel location by tripadvisor and booked this hotel because of it's location and good hotel rate as compared to others hotel rate. it is very well situated with good ventilation. it is like a hostel with common bathroom.
