Yesinn Hotel & Youth Hostel 悦思酒店&青年旅舍

The staff at Yessin @ YMT are very welcoming and accommodating. The only minor issue we encountered was with the early check-in baggage system, which is still a bit disorganized (for example, we had seven bags but received only one tag), though it is still convenient that you can leave your luggage before check-in. The rooms are clean, cleaned daily, and come with disposable towels. The location is very accessible, with MTR stations and bus stops nearby. Facilities such as Wi-Fi, a kettle, and hot/cold showers added to the comfort, although note that there are no bidets. The rooms are spacious for the price, making it a good budget-friendly option near the city center. Overall, the experience was very positive and offers excellent value for money.

The room is clean (but small as it’s Hong Kong…). Excellent location - easy access to all modes of public transportation, eateries and shops. Fairly quiet except that I could hear the sound of elevator moving every time it’s used. Something for noise sensitive guests to consider.

For a hostel in HK you can't expect too much - there is a bed and it does the job. I wouldn't be staying there too long, but I wouldn't really be staying in HK for too long either. The bathroom is contained in the room, which means you only have to share with the 3 others, but it does mean that you can hear everything. Staff were friendly enough, just ask specific questions to get good answers. When sharing a room and have an unpleasant experience with them, sometimes you tend to blame the hostel, this place, like HK attracts all sorts, so consider that when choosing what place you would like to stay. I would stay here again if I was to visit HK again. I would probably choose to visit China or Macau though. Good luck on your travels people. I give it a high rating, only to compare to other hostels in HK, not that this is a 4 star hostel.

i mean what do you expect from a hostel. relatively clean and quiet place, we had no problems. although some services like towels and slippers could be included into the price rather than being extra. and the bed was really squeaky as well. other than these it was an overall good experience.

This place is in a good location near exit C of Yau Ma Tai metro station. There are many shops and eating places nearby. I walked to several vegetarian restaurants (I can walk far). I ended up getting breakfast from the nearby bakery most days.Travel by bus or metro is convenient. It feels like a safe area, and as a female travelling alone I always felt safe. I spoke with reception several times during my 8 night stay and always found everyone to be polite and helpful, and all with good English. I had checked in at 9pm with no problems. The doorman sat in the foyer was friendly and directed me where to go as soon as he saw a case. I was in a private corner room and it was very quiet; the elevator was on one side and empty space on the other side so no noise from neighbouring rooms. The room has key card entry and I like how I never had to go to reception to get the card recharged as often happens at other places I have stayed. For Hong Kong this place is exceptionally good value for money, I would stay again. I have previously stayed in Chunking Mansions and this is a way, way better option for a budget traveller. I extended my stay twice during the 8 day stay thus to see all my comments about the room, read all 3 reviews.My comments are based on expectations of a budget hotel in Hong Kong where all I wanted was a cheap and convenient place to stay.

The is called a Youth Hostel, though if you are a more mature person looking for a cheap ensuite room to stay in , then this is the place for you. If you have booked a private room you will not be experiencing any type of hostel vibe if you do not wish and will not be disturbed by groups of backpackers. Apart from check in, you will get the elevator straight to your floor view it just as a cheap hotel. If you are a backpacker looking for a cheap and convenient place to stay , then this is for you. If you are the type of backpacker who is looking for the upbeat, energetic vibe, this is not one of those places…though there are posters up related to pub crawls, activities and tours. There is a small common area in the receptions area with a small kitchen corner, some books and games. Several reviews have commented on small beds: ordinary people live in very cramped conditions in HK and furniture sizes reflect this so beds are unlikely to be comfortable for tall people as budget accommodation is unlikely to pay extra to purchase atypical bed sizes.Hong Kong is always ranked within the top 2 of the cities with high cost of living. This is a very good bargain for Hong Kong. I stayed in a private ensuite room and in the past I have paid more for less, both in HK and elsewhere. I am going to San Franscisco soon and am paying the same price for less nights and a shared bathroom.

I had a great experience at this hostel! The location was perfect—close to public transport, food spots, and local attractions. The dorms were clean, beds comfy with privacy curtains, and lockers provided. Bathrooms were regularly cleaned and had hot water. What really stood out was the friendly staff and social atmosphere. The common area was lively, Wi-Fi was fast, and there was a shared kitchen which helped save on meals.

If you would pay me to stay - I would not.The Hotel was dirty and Pillows and Linen were stained. The backboard of the bed was full of white stains… I would not want my enemies to stay at this establishment. We checked out early as this was too much. No refund to date. Bad Management which reflects the property.

I was looking for a place to stay in Hong Kong for the week, and I did *NOT* want to stay in Chungking mansions. I found Yesinn YMT, and I was *extremely* happy. I got a private room for right around $50 a night, which is *AMAZING* for this part of Hong Kong. The hostel is an easy less than 5 minute walk from the Yau Ma Tei subway station, right off of Nathan Road. When I checked in, I liked the look of the common room. Plenty of places to sit and relax, and also a computer if you need to use one. They also have bottled water and other beverages to sell. Everyone I interacted with the week I was there was fantastic. Anything I needed to find, I could find in the immediate neighborhood, and they showed me exactly where it was on a map. I also needed to print up a couple of emails for tours I was taking, and they printed those out for me also. There is also Wi-Fi throughout the building, which was fast enough for me to stream video with, even using a VPN for security. I was on a higher floor, and still had no problem with it. The hostel/guesthouse is in one highrise building. For security purposes, you press your room key up against a sensor in the elevator, and it will give you only access to the floor you are staying on. The room was very small, but again, for what I was paying for a private room in Hong Kong, it was perfect. The room had a bed, a small bathroom, and a TV. I was living out of my suitcase for the week, but there was plenty of space to put my gear and still move around. My TV did not work the first day or so, but as soon as they could get a technician in, they couldn't get it to work, so they just replaced the whole TV. There was also 2 different places to plug in my voltage converter, so I could keep my electronics charged. I told them that they did not need to send someone up to replace my towel or fold my comforter every day, but they did anyway. i thought that was a nice touch. As for the neighborhood, as I mentioned, it is close to the Subway which, combined with the bus, and ferry systems, will get you almost anywhere in town. There is an express bus to and from the airport that runs on Nathan Road just a block and a half away. There are tons of local restaurants in the neighborhood, where you can find all sorts of food, from standard, to very , um, "adventurous". (I *actually* found the duck tongue in soy sauce very tasty. I learned that duck tongues have bones. I didn't get to try the snake soup at another spot, though. :) ) Right outside the front door is the Temple Street Night Market, where you can find just about anything you are looking for. Be prepared to haggle, and you will find some great deals. Overall, a great place to stay run by great people. However, there is one important rule to follow, especially if you are staying in the dorms. (See picture.)
