Oriental Pearl Hostel Reviews

Upon checking in, I was greeted by three cockroaches on my bed, a room so small, my closet at home is bigger, an odor throughout the room and the hotel/hostel. Later, I discovered the toilet was broken, it didn’t work all weekend, and a single, wire box frame bed that made noises every time I moved. Literally, I had no leg room and no place but the bed to put my laptop. And amenities such as soap, shampoo and toothpaste, available for purchase at the front desk. Most hotels provide that for free. The owners are so cheap, they tell guests to the hostel to leave in the morning and not to come back until after 7pm, which was also the earliest check-in for my room. As the weekend went on the room got worse, the owners became rude to me because they knew I was calling Trip.com about the room. Finally, last evening there, I had forgotten I had some bread in my suitcase and came back to find a hole in my suitcase and bread crumbs all over the room! Not just cockroaches, but rats too. Needless to say I didn’t sleep that night. I paid way too much for this room, total rip-off of all customers that choose that place, and the pictures don’t match the actual rooms! Over 1500 RMB for three nights, holiday, but even then, a ‘normal’ rate is over 200 RMB, still not worth it. This place is a garbage dump, with rude staff, and NOT worth the money. See pictures.

Friendly, helpful Good service. Speaks good English and security office open long hours. Very good value for money ... Will come back

Owner or manager was very rude. Didn't provide soap, towel, bed sheet, . Room are very small. There are many complaints. I booked in rs 7800. There was a exbition going for lighting. Owner said you are lucky you get a room. I checked in 04pm. It takes 06.00 pm to get in to the room. And after getting the room . I just kept my luggage and went for shopping . came back around 10pm.. Found no soap no towel no bed sheet no drinking water. Bed sheets are too much dirty..he said now noone in the hotel. how the people lives There. I don't understand. . Anyway if I booked early I must found a good hotel in the same budget.

Very bad, everything is dirty, never book this hostel

Excellent price

The case when the expectation does not correspond to reality by 100500%... On the day of check-in, our previously paid room reservation was cancelled. We had to quickly look for an alternative, because there were almost no hotels left during the holidays. We found this option, the photos are good, the reviews are good too, the price is really 3 times more expensive, but what can you do, you can't wear it on the street. What can I say... The only plus is the location, close to the center, the embankment. At first, they gave us a small room, which was in block A on the 3rd floor. To get to the right floor, you will have to stand in line for 15-20 minutes for the elevator. The room itself is 3 meters, where instead of windows there are a bunch of mirrors, the beds are in an L shape, the bathroom with the toilet is generally a separate form of art 😅 The fussy owner demanded a deposit of 1000 yuan from us. When we said we had no cash, he kept our passport, apparently as a guarantee that we wouldn't take anything with us 🤣 Although he only gives out towels and toilet paper upon request. We were able to take a hair dryer only once, and even then, we had to agree on it in the evening. But the fun didn't end there)) On the second day, he moved us to block D on the 7th floor, citing the fact that the new room was large and spacious. But he didn't warn us that we would have to share this "wonderful" room with the cockroaches we met in the morning... Nothing else changed, the same lines for the elevator, the room itself may not be 3, but 5 meters, the bathroom is the same, but there was also stinking garbage, the smell of cigarettes, dampness, constantly screaming neighbors - in general, a combo 🙈 In India, the most notorious hotel was cleaner and more well-kept than all this horror! It's good that our stay was only a couple of days. But 10,000₽ per day for such conditions is just too much☝️I don’t advise anyone to rent it.

It’s not worth it, the environment is so bad, there’s not even a decent quilt, and there are cockroaches in the morning🪳

It is recommended that you really don’t stay here. The environment is very bad and the boss is dishonest. The platform needs to be checked. Some unscrupulous merchants should stop promoting and attract them at low prices. The environment is not generally bad. Whoever stays here will regret it.

Clean room, good service, convenient dining

The service is very good. The old man is very polite. There is no discrimination against mainland tourists as mentioned on the Internet.

The messy hotel has no facilities, no slippers, no bath towels, no toothbrushes. If you don't give good reviews, you won't let go.

The environment was so bad that I couldn't sleep all night

For Hong Kong, a hotel at this price is very good, and Hong Kong is very expensive. The transportation is convenient and there are many delicious foods nearby! The main environment is ok. I like it. It can accommodate two people.
