I stayed there a few nights ago and the rooms were even tinier than expected in HKK and they were dirty. The staff was extremely rude, they didn't even make any effort to speak English and tried to throw us out of our room before checkout. To top it off, they wouldn't do (paid) laundry for us!

The first time I came here, I dealt with the nice young lady (I'm guessing she is the owner, not sure). She was very helpful and booked a room in the same building. The room was nice and clean. The second time I came, I ran into the older lady who shouts like everyone is talking about. She books the... More

The only saving grace of this hostel is its location. It is steps away from major malls, including Sogo. When I arrived, there was no receptionist. I had to wait for her to arrive. When I did get to meet her, she was really rude. The room she gave me was in another building and we had to walk for... More

The receptionist in a hostel should be polite and not shout at customers. She should not make customers leave the hostel even though there is someone who will pay at a higher price. The hostel receptionist is greedy in money. SunKong Hostel is not advisable for people who wants to travel and stay in a hostel!

Knowing the fact that most accommodations in Hong Kong is small in space, am pretty satisfy with my stay in Sun Kong hostel. Though is nothing compare to those fancy hotels out there, but it pretty much meet my needs in terms of location, easy access to other destinations, and safe. It is located just next to the famous Causeway... More

I agree with 'jacthegril' --- I was there when you were about to check in. I left some package for my 12 friends who stayed there (I booked SK guesthouse for them), 'was abt to ask abt the booking but the receptionist might get/angry and shout (that's her strategy). I paid the $2,300 reservation fee for 3 double rooms and... More

I am currently waiting in the lobby, after being told one price on the phone, seeing another price on the internet, then hurried into paying more for the room. I asked to see the room before paying as it was more expensive then first told. I was told no, passed to the owner on the phone when she proceeded to... More

This is maybe 1 point better than Chunking Mansions, but the rooms are way too small and the property is old and not kept in good condition. The hostel owner is unpolite and in a hurry to get your money. The location though is pretty good, next to the metro station and nearby lots of restaurants and 24h shops.

Horrendous. Arrived first night to find no one there. Eventually one of the other 'inmates' managed to track down the proprietor who was incredibly bad tempered. So, with confirmation email in hand we asked to be shown to our room, but were told there was no room for me and my sister, despite having booked way in advance and paid... More
