This is the smallest hostel out of all the ones I've ever stayed at. We chose this place because it had pretty good reviews at the time, but I was really surprised at the size and how rundown this place was, even for a cheap hostel in HK. Pros: -close to the subway station -super cheap -you can get a... More

cheap for a guesthouse. better than staying in expensive hotels if the only purpose is to rest and sleep

We stayed at GIG after looking for a place to stay in The Lonely Planet guide, it seemed the cheapest. The rooms were very small & during the night somebody was ringing the bell for the main door constantly until 4am!

The worst place I have ever stayed, the room was tiny and filthy (after advertising that they were recently redecorated, maybe in the 70's..) the service was rude, there was no wifi in the room, dodgey lifts and entrance. I will never go back.

We had a tv and air-con (which we wouldn't have been able to cope without!). Other than that there is little in the way of 'frills'. Entrance to... More

Our family (with two children) arrived in Hong Kong for a five day visit but ended up staying for five weeks when one of the children required medical care. We felt very fortunate to have Golden Island Guesthouse as our home base during this time. The guesthouse is a great deal for Hong Kong -- very clean rooms with private... More

We were originally going to stay in this room for 5 nights, however after checking in, we immediately wanted to leave! However, owing to the fact the trade fair was going on at the time, nearly all other affordable hotels/hostels were booked out or were EXTREMELY expensive (more than double the usual rates). We ended up having to stay 3... More
