Sailor's Home, West Point, Hong Kong

Hi, I am tracing an ancestor that died intestate in China in 1912. According to the British Supreme Court for China, intestate memo books register record, his father's address is given as Sailor's Home, West Point, Hong Kong. My family believes this may have been a 'post office box' as we know he lived elsewhere with quit a large family. Can anyone advise on this. Thank you.
