Great companies, watch out for noises
External noise would be the biggest downside if staying at the rooms by the front desk. Noise such as rude drivers keeping their hand down on the horn for minutes for the most minuscule thing on the road. Other than that, there's always a good group of folks staying at this place that's down to explore or hang out together.

The rooms are really small, so be prepared for that. Not much space to spread your stuff. If you have a lot of suitcases it will be really hard for you. I think it would be good for backpackers that travel light. I liked that the bathrooms and shower was decent in the rooms that I stayed in. I stayed in an all female dorm which was in a separate area down the hall from the office and the other rooms. The bathrooms and showers were not that great by the office. I didn't like how it had a rundown look. For the price it was good because I mainly used it just to sleep, but if you are looking for a good place to relax and rest then maybe this is not the right place. The lounge is also small so not many people can be there. They do events like eating out so it is a great way to meet people. This hostel is really hit or miss so it is up to you to decide on what experience you want to have. Personally for me I like to have more space and have a place that I can relax in so this hostel did not fit but I did like the price.

Left STRANDED in the middle of night
I was checked in early on Nov 1st but the receptionist did not give me keys or show me my room/Bed. Later on when I returned after my exploration at night, surprisingly the receptionist was not there nor any other representative. and I was STRANDED with no where to go. I had a place to sleep courtesy a stranger. Hotels.com should refund my money for the service I was not provided.

Avoid like the plague
I have no idea why this place has such high reviews. It's the worst hostel I've ever stayed in. Rooms were dirty, bed had hair all over it (I'm confident the sheets weren't changed as I was checked in early despite saying I could go away for a while and come back later to ensure everything was done), it was freezing at night due to the AC having to be kept on, they cram far too many people into one room, if you're on the bottom bunk you feel like you're paying on the floor, bathroom sink was always dirty (the female dorm isn't shown in any of their online pix but it certainly does not look like what's advertised), staff were unhelpful and 2 girls ended up fighting over a bed because they weren't shown exactly which bed belonged to whom, just given keys and directed to the dorm. Location was good though. I've stayed in other hostels in the building that were miles better, do yourself a favour and go to one of those!

A must if your a backpacker in Hong Kong
Great hostel in ideal location being right in the city a few minutes walk to city light show and two train stops from central nightlife. Front desk girls are nice, common area has great vibe and I’d definitely stay again

Great Weekend
I had a great time staying at Rainbow Lodge. Staff are very friendly and accommodating like you can just go ask them something and they are always happy to help, the place is always clean (which is very important), you have everything you need. Free water, coffee, tea, wifi, etc. Worry free f you stay here especially for someone like me who's travelling solo. MTR and bus stations are just outside the building. Near everything, shops, restaurants, etc. Totally recommend this hostel.

Amazing Hostel Experience!
The hostel had a great atmosphere, very easy to meet people to explore the city with, the owner himself also took part in some of the events. Nice location, very convenient to access both from the airport and city centre.

This hostel was my first dormitory experience ever. However, later on I figured out that other hostels are far better than this hostel. You need to pay for the towel as well as the deposit (probably a big chunk of your cash). Restroom was not clean at all and the shower area, it was clogged so water flooded. The size of locker was ok. Since it is inside of a tall Mansion, you have to wait for getting in the elevator especially busy time like 6-11pm. The elevator is very tiny. However, since it is in TST, you can visit many places on foot. Moreover, the metro station is in walking distance.

Smells of B.O. and booze
The room and bed size were typical for a hostel in Hong Kong, and this hostel has great potential. However, the place smelled of drunk men and body odor. The common area had beer bottles tossed about and a drunk snoozing "guest" on the couch until mid-day on multiple days of my visit. The staff didn't enforce the quiet hours nor did they request the guests to clean up after their drunken evenings or vomiting mishaps in the bathroom. Mostly, the young girls that worked at the desk sat there staring at their phones or the computer. It's a rowdy place filled with disrespectful guests and staff that could care less. Unless you plan to party hard every night of the week, I would recommend you look elsewhere.

Expedia Terrible, Dangerous Unlicensed Hostel
Very dangerous. Booked the last bed on Expedia on 1st Feb, arrived about 11pm to be given a bed (top of a 3-tier) in a low-ceilinged room, my face and body would have been a few inches below the ceiling beam running the entire length of the bed. I refused the bed as didn't want to injure myself. The HK government website did not list the unit as a licensed unit. Now 5 months later Expedia has done NOTHING about my refund and didn't even bother to reply to my complaint made at the time, but paid the hostel and took its paltry commission. First and terrible experience with Expedia and this hostel.

One night is enough
1. At first I went to place they inform me by e-mail. When I was there, they told me to go to another branch (even it's not far) but it wasted my time ! 2. I got the bed next to the wall and the door. So annoying! When people shut the door, the bed shake. Think about it! People come in and out all the time even at night! 3. The pillow is tooooo soft. I can't sleep well and got headache every morning. The thing I like here is just free facilities; shampoo, conditioner, toothpaste, water

Don't expect too much
The best things about this place are the low price (in a city that's generally expensive) and the central location right next to TST station. In saying that, it is nearly impossible to find because it's in one of the many (fairly dodgy) high rise "mansions" and is not clearly marked. Actually, it's in two separate locations. I was put in the second one (Harilela Mansion) where there was almost never a staff member present. Make sure to follow the directions with photos that the hostel sends you in an attachment after you book your stay! It may be the only way you'll find this place. Other cons: toilets are TINY and bathrooms are generally not very clean, and climbing up/down the top (3rd level) bunk can be tricky (no safe ladder). Pros: free water, the curtain on each bed provides good privacy for a hostel, and the roomy individual lockers and door code on the front door (that's always locked) make it feel secure, and the dim sum restaurant in the basement of Harilela Mansion is really good.

Better than Average
Checking in was very easy. The rooms are rather small about the size of a child's room with three triple bunk beds and a double. You get your own small locker for valuables. I believe about 11 people in each room with on two rooms in the flat. The bath room had two sinks, two toilets, and two showers. They were cleaned on a daily basis. Laundry was available for charge. Events were coordinated each night which was nice even though I did not attend any. The beds were extremely hard but that is just me. I stayed with a friend for two night and then a four star hotel and all the beds were equally hard must be a HK thing. I mainly left because someone had horrible smelling feet and another snored like a hurricane but this is typical with 11 people in a room. The first nights there were great no issues everyone was considerate. I mainly just stayed here to save some money. I would say it is a little better than average Hostel.
