The Nap Mong Kok

I was on a long layover in Hong Kong and I ended up booking a room last minute in Mong Kok, so that I could spend a couple of hours strolling around Kowloon and enjoying some local food. I thought this capsule hotel would be easy to find as it's on Nathan Rd, however it took quite long for me to find the actual building, correct entrance and lift (no clear signs downstairs). The worst part though was finding out there's an online self check-in before entering the hotel. It was taking me so much time to connect, call and figure out how to do it as there's no staff in the hotel (only someone who can be reached by phone). The second part of the check-in was even more confusing for someone arriving tired after a long flight. Luckily enough there was a Thai guest who was kind enough to help me out. I'm not sure if I could have sorted it out if he wasn't there. I believe there should always be a staff member available for convenience and safety. The capsule itself was clean and comfortable. If I remember correctly, male and female bathrooms were not divided.

It was stressful to check in, you have to message them in advance at least 30 mins before. Don’t expect to have staff 24/7 at the hotel. The blanket was smelly and not comfortable to sleep in. If you look for a cheaper and 1 day stays . This is for you

It is hard to find a hostel, however they have provided very clear instructions. Rooms are fresh and AC was working. I would recommend this hostel.

The place is clean and tidy. The bathrooms are small. If you arrive before 4pm, you will pay an additional fee of 100 Hong Kong dollars.

This was an okay stay. The location was good, but everything else was average. The cleanliness was passable, and the amenities were bare. Furthermore there was no laundry within the hostel itself, but there is a laundry place on the ground floor of the building. Pretty sure it wasn’t a capsule hostel though, more like 2 bunk beds to a room with blinds that you could pull down for privacy. I think there are cheaper places that offer the same amount of benefits for a lower price, but you would be sacrificing the cleanliness and location.

This place was okay. I'd probably give it a 6 out of 10. The facilities are a bit too hi-tech for me. When you open the black box just take 1 key card (I took 3 but how would I know?). To open any door, tap the futuristic looking black circle on the wall. The bathroom is very small but this is Hong Kong. I would say the bed is acceptable though.

The hostel is good overall like I wrote but would be better if they put one person to work the reception. Other hostels in the city do it and their prices aren't higher so I don't think it would increase their cost of operation that much like they claimed on the phone.

The single capsule was very spacious and clean. The cleaniness in the bathrooms and the toilets were outstanding. The check in was easy (message via WhatsApp), the response time could be better but when you call her via WhatsApp the process is way faster. For the price absolute great hostel!

Not a good place.
