I stayed at the
Dragon Hostel in Mong Kok my first two nights. From the website, it looked pretty decent. Once I got there, I can only describe it as interesting. It was very old, it reminded me of the type of buildings you see in old Hong Kong movies. The hostel was on the 7th floor of a 14 floor building, but the rooms took up a few levels. The rooms depicted on the website look pretty nice, don't they? My room was SUPER small, about 6X6, with no windows. Thank God it had air conditioning and a television. The bathroom was super tiny, maybe 2.5 ft X 3 ft, and get this—the shower was a hand-held
shower head above the toilet. I totally forgot about this, but in Asia, a lot of bathrooms have showers that are basically a hand held shower head and you just shower in the middle of the bathroom and there's a drain on the floor for the water to go down. I wanted to block all this from my memory, so I just took photos of the building. Thank goodness it was clean!!!
