Taking a trip to Hong Kong in may and thinking about using a hostel. Anybody have experience with using one or should I just use a hotel?

Stayed in hostels throughout Europe. They are much cheaper especially if you are below the max age (~25). Saved myself a ton of cash. If ur goin alone it's a good way to meet people. But it's cramped, depending on the size of room you stay in. The larger rooms I stayed in had like 12 other people, and basically a ton of bunk-beds throughout the room. So there's no privacy and if someone snores at night and you can't sleep? Tough. Plus, you usually all hafta share a bathroom
.
But for me it was worth it considering how much money I saved (easily over a few thousand), and if you're lucky you may be roomed up with some nice lookin girls who need travel companions. Swedish Hostels
Wouldn't wanna stay in one for a very long period of time, but in short spurts its cool.
