Aiyo, there are a lot way better hostels than Chung King Mansions. Apple, Hop Inn, Bridal Tea Guest House, etc.

Most central location will be in Kowloon itself (e.g. Tsim Sha Tsui, Jordan, Mongkok, Sham Shui Po, Yau Ma Tei).

If hostel and hotel don't appeal to you, then you can try Airbnb and stay in their apartment. I assume solo, since most backpackers don't travel in big groups.

Chung King Mansion looks very congested and seems like afew hostel together. I am worried about fire safety aspect. I rather stay in those buildiing by itself proper hotel eg. casa hotel, bridal house, silka seaview at ya ma tei which is not expensive and near to mtr.
