Satisfied customer here
The staff are very accommodating and we are satisfied to their services , on how they clean the room everyday and change the towels. We also like the place because it was near to those essential needs.

Room may be small but comfortable. Daily the room is cleaned and new towels given. When needed the staff is helpful with the limited English they know. Location is great. Subway station close to every part of the city and bus stops as well. Thanks for my stay.

Rip-off! Not even an animal deserves such a place. The picture of the room I booked wasn't what I was given. I got told by the receptionist that this is a hostel rather than a guesthouse that Expedia advertised. Such an unsafe place! In the event of fire, there's no chance for escape. In the lift, corridor and even the room it feels just unsafe. When I stopped by the nearby shops to ask for directions, the shop assistants laughed and were surprised I was going to stay at such a place. I didn't get their attitude until I got in. The room is less than 2-meter wide and less than 3-meter long. The window not opening. No shower, so you shower over the toilet seat thus making you dry up the toilet seat afterwards before using it. The bed is lesser than 2-meter long. I told the receptionist I was leaving the next morning to claim my money back for the remaining 2 days and they said I had to take it to Expedia. Has Expedia ever inspected this location? Disgrace is an understatement!

Joseph, You checked in the the room you reserved. It’s the same room as shown from the photo. The property is fine. We are a budget guest house, not a star hotel. Please keep it in mind when you reserve again. Welcome again.

Excellent Mong Kok location, local attractions!
Rooms and bathrooms small but very clean. Location a 5 minute walk to Mong Kok MTR station, 6 minute walk to the 'rocket' minibus to Sai Kung, and 5 minutes walking to Ladies' Market - fantastic! Lots of cheap local places to eat as well. Compared to the prices of name-brand hotels on New Year's Eve weekend, this was a bargain! Not for those who insist on the standard roominess of American style hotels, but this has all the basic needs well covered and was a fun adventure. Staff was thoughtful, friendly, helpful and efficient!

I enjoyed my stay very much. The room and ensuite toilet was clean. The location was prime, just a short walk from Mong Kok MTR Station. Both Keith and Joey were really friendly and helpful as well. There was just a small hiccup with the room arrangement, was told to change room as I was wrongly given a twin room when mine was meant to be a Single room. I would definitely consider coming back to stay because there's also the ease of having the airport express bus just less than 3 min walk from the building.

Clean, Quiet, Economical, stay in Mongkok.
Mongkok Guest House is economical stay in a bustling part of the city. If you want a genuine HK experience stay in Mongkok, if you want a western style hotel stay, pay more money, stay at the harbor. The room is small, it is the Sun Hing Building on Nathan Rd. It is clean, it has a private bath (also small) with shower that is not in a separate enclosure; this is typical throughout Asia. We were provided fresh towels everyday, trash cans emptied, and toothpaste/brushes/shampoo provided. The building has an eclectic mix of guest houses, businesses and residences and is in the center of the Mongkok business district. There are good locks on the doors and a kinda security on the ground floor. Out the backdoor of the building will reveal many eateries. If you come from the Airport take the bus (A21); easier than the MTR and bus has no limits on luggage, no stairs, very little walking. Get of at Sino Center and walk South to the nearest pedestrian crossing. After crossing, the building is North. Stay here as an economic alternative to the tourist hotels at the harbor. I found it to be quiet (24th floor), clean and I loved all the nearby food options.

Location was great, close to all shopping, food and transportation. Staff was friendly though I didn’t request much. They do offer to clean the room daily. Getting to guest house was simple from the airport with clear directions from owner. Though place was a little bit was what I expected so wasn’t disappointed. It was great that the room had a window with a very good view of the water.

Great stay in MongKok
The woman who showed me around my room did a really good job of showing me everything even though she didn't speak English. I was shocked how small the room is but my friend who is from Hong Kong side that my room was far bigger than his and it was big for Hong Kong. I had two windows and a really nice view of the city. The location is in the middle of the city and is great to get around the city. I would 100% go here again it was very nice and friendly.

Great place to stay
It was a good place to stay for the price and location. If you want to be in the central of hong kong and an affordable price then this is the place. It’s not fancy and the room is a bit small for two people but it was what I expected with living in Hong Kong. They clean the room everyday and management was very friendly. Overall, I would recommend this place if you are traveling solo or you are on a tight budget and want to live in a great location.
