Ah Shan was a bit of a culture shock for us not having stayed in a hostel before! It is located in Mong Kok in a good area for markets... there are also lots of cheap places to eat around that area. You can walk to the Harbour front in about 45 mins or it is really cheap & easy... more

Stayed for 3 nights in Ah Shan. Good owners but they had poor english but can understand well. Clean beds and bathrooms. Great flat screen TV but chanels are in chinese. Great location but hard to locate because they had no billboards outside the building. I recommend If you want to locate the place try asking the vendors for a... more

I had a single room with private bathroom. The room was very small. Towels are not provided. Almost no toilet paper in the bathroom. You have to stand in the toilet to take a shower, as the shower is directly above it. The worst part was that it was FREEZING! Air condition in room, but no way to turn up... more

Dear KjerstiH, Thank you for your comment as posted in the review. We are writing to response to your view with a hope to let you know the fact. Actually, based on the hong kong environment, the size of the room is most appropriate to most travellers. In fact, many visitors to our hostel satisfy the accommodation facilities of our...

This is our 2nd stay at Ah Shan. We found the 1st stay pleasant hence we decided that we will go back again. The 2nd stay wasn't as good in terms of the room we got. Later we found out that the room we had last year was a newly renovated one with a bigger room and shower area. The... more

We looked for hours on the internet trying to find a hostel that we could trust and feel safe, and, clean in. As we had never visited to Hong Kong before we were going in "blind" and the only way we could find out what a hostel would be like was to trust other people's reviews on websites, like this... more

I were travel to HK with family (with 2 daughters). The outside of hotel is not very clean but the room is clean. Small as usual because HK is out of space. The owner of the hotel is very friendly and give you suggestion the good nearby restaurant to enjoy your meal. The hostel is very near to MTR, and... more

Lovely, friendly place with great location. Free wireless in room (make sure you ask when booking). The owners were so friendly and helpful – they genuinely like to take care of their guests. Rooms were clean (and cleaned daily) but small, but that was not a problem as the owners, location and price were more than perfect. A real gem.... more

I have never stayed in a hostel before and always had pretty grim perceptions of doing so. I thought given my restricted budget for a stay in HK I really wanted to find low cost quality accommodation. After reading reviews, I thought I would give Ah Shan a try. I was expecting a teeny tiny room. Granted it is small... more

Excellent location in the heart of Mongkok with easy access to the street markets, good hawkers / restaurants and just a few minutes walk to MTR station. Even though the building was old, the rooms were in excellent condition. Although not spacious, the bedsheets were spotless and rooms were very clean. Service was average but the owners were incredibly friendly... more
