Hotel Analysis
Based on 2 sites · 239 reviews
Skystar Hostel is a budget hostel in Hong Kong's Tsim Sha Tsui Chungking Mansions. Guests frequently praise its central location for easy MTR and sightseeing access.
Reviews across sites highlight friendly staff and good value for the price. Solo travelers note it's convenient for tourism despite the building's complexity. Rooms are clean in some cases but odors are mentioned.
However, Chungking Mansions' entrance has many hawkers, and long elevator waits are common complaints. Rooms are much smaller than photos, unsuitable for families.
It's fine for budget solo or short-trip travelers, but expect disappointment if space and comfort are priorities.
