Horrible Hong Kong Hostel

Horrible Hong Kong Hostel

This was a sign in the hostel where I booked three nights in Hong Kong hostel for $14 a night. Notice that it only had hot water during certain hours of the day. Actually, all services were rationed, especially comfort. It didn’t really matter about the hot water, the bathroom was so nasty that I would have never considered taking a shower there. The room was so small that people staying in it had trouble passing gas. Not that they needed to, the smell of the room was already enough to make me sick. I got out as quickly as possible. No, I didn’t ask for a refund for the day I didn’t stay there.

This is the hostel pool. Am I saying that the hostel had a swimming pool? Yes, I am. Small, but a nice one. Did I swim there? No. But only because I look so good in a swim suit that I was afraid I would be attacked by hordes of young, rich women.

This is the street in front of my hostel in Saigon. It’s early right now. Wait until later. The place really gets hopping after dark. Strange people come out. There are a lot of bars, hotels, restaurants and travel agents in the area. It was a great place to call home for a couple of days. Well, okay, maybe I couldn’t really call it home. Let’s just say I called it Saigon…
