"I was assigned a seaview room, nothing to complain with this price. The view is fantastic! However, the seaview window is on the corrider side, so for those who need privacy may prefer putting the curtain on.
I would suggest people to bring your own soap for hand washing and plastic slippers, as the bathroom floor won't dry by itself and no soap provided. Prepare a one-off towel as a temporarily door mat would also be a good idea especially during rainy days, things won't easily dry even with...

"I've stayed at Ashoka Hostel before. If you are a budget traveler, I can't recommend this place enough. I needed a cheap place to stay while getting my visa updated last year. So I stayed here again. I stayed during the May holiday this time, which meant the price was more than $44 a night, but it was still a bargain.

"This hotel was quite literally the worst place I have ever stayed. Every picture that they have is fake and highly edited. There is mold, rust, bed bugs, a terrible smell, and my room had a constant drip going from the ceiling. Men stand outside of the location harassing you daily as you come in and out. There is no amount of money that could make me stay here again and the place should be shut down for it's frankly disgusting state. The owners are scammers and deserve none of your money. Do...

"The area around/in the building is a little shady. It is hard to find the first time and you need to line up for elevator.

"Due to a HK policy of no use of plastic - there was no water in the room which if you come in late after a long travel day and wake up and need water there is nothing. They need to put in place a system that other hotels use which is to use reusable glass bottles and have an on-site UV water purifier."
