Typical Hong Kong Hotel
The hotel is in an excellent location, very close to the subway, shopping and dinning. The room is small, as are most Hong Kong hotels, but sufficient for two people. There were a couple of English channels on TV. Some of the staff did struggle with English though.

M1 stands for 1 star
Staff was horrible they were sleeping on the job. They give us one key 2 people staying in room. Ask them for another key $70 per key wow. Very rude will never stay there again. Over $230 dollars a night go to the Hilton they have class.

good location small room size
Convenient location. 5 min walk for metro stn to visit nearby places like temple street market , mongkok etc and 5 min walk to A21 flyer bus stop for airport. Rooms are very small though and because of small size some inconvenience. Its a no frills so donot expect service. They will charge you for every thing.. even plain drinking water.

The property is super close to many dining options and in the evening they have quite a few dining options that open late. The hotel is right next to a collection site and a couple of casket shops. Overall, didn't feel unsafe, it's always vibing HK and if you're always out and about and just need a place to shower and sleep this is the place for you. The rooms we opted for had a double bed and a washroom and a bay area by the window that you can sort out your luggage. Great for 1-2 person stays, don't think it was very kid or family friendly. Also, note if you stay there for a long haul, they do not switch out your sheets/towels until the 4th day. Didn't get a chance to try out the restaurant on the 1st level, but the food looks pretty good.

Overall the stay was within my expectation for the price range. I've stayed at a few other hotel around the area and the room size with 2 twin bed is definitely on the smaller size but acceptable. Washroom is cleaner than some that I've been to. The exhaust fan was not working in the washroom and the ac unit is a tad bit dusty and noisy. Cleanliness is decent. Sheets and bed were good, I observed the cleaner scrubbing the washroom floor. The only area they missed cleaning is underneath the bed, I found an empty water bottle and a tissue. Even 4 star hotel cleaners easily miss areas like this so I'm not super disappointed. The only main complaint I have is the hint of smoke for a non-smoking room. The previous guest must've smoke near the curtain/window. ppl that complain about size need to set their expectations to HK standards. If you want a 250sf room pay triple the price. If you just need a small room to sleep on a budget this is more than enough. The same goes for customer service, this isn't japan for 4 star hotel, set your standards to HK average level of customer service and you will be good. Location is probably the best attribute about this hotel. Extremely close to mtr and within walking distance to temple street/lady street. I honestly did not mind the coffin stores next door, quite unique, rarely do I get to see those old style coffin shops. I wouldn't mind staying here again.

The hotel is located in between 2 coffin shops which I felt pretty uncomfortable staying in such loxation. Also, the room condition is poorly maintained (eg, the aircond ventilation is full of dust and cigarette smell despite non-smoking room was requested).

Never again
Decided to try a new hotel but soon realised it was a mistake. Check in time is strictly at 2pm and checkout at 12pm. The 2 gals with glasses at the reception simply had no sense of service nor hospitality. I arrived at 12pm after a very early morning flight hoping to check in but was just shoved away with a '2pm' coldly when attempting to check in. Room condition was bad with peeling walls, stains etc. Not to mention the entry to the hotel is just simply weird. The hotel is also next to a shop that sells coffins.

A bit disappointed with room conditions
I feel compelled to share my experience regarding the poor condition of the room I was assigned. It was totally different from pictures shown on hotels.com Once I entered the room, I noticed dirtiness. Room and furniture looked very old. Can see mold or water leaking marks on ceiling. No cupboard in the room. Just a wall hanger near window. Upon checking-in, I told reception staff that I requested 2 single beds but they said it’s on request and no room with 2 single beds available. I had no choice. Headed to my room. To my surprise, it’s was 2 single beds there. How come staff didn’t know that.

It’s a SCAM! Room actually cost us 11 times more!
We booked the room via hotel.com. Once confirmed booking, hotel.com sent us a notice if the guest got covid infected, will be charged $4000 for deep cleaning. We called hotel staff as it is non refundable, so to make sure. The hotel staff said clearly over the phone, “just ignore such 4000, don’t worry” ok we checked in normally. Unluckily, I was infected during the stay. Now they charged us $4000!? At first, we didn’t agree to any $4000 deep cleaning policy. We asked and got confirmation just ignoring that. We checked in. Now they charged us $4000?! On what ground can the hotel charged us to the policy we haven’t agreeed, we clarified that doesn’t apply to us, but we are charged 11 times more than the room it self?! The hotel is sneaklly. We asked hotel.com to investigate. Now the hotel.com didn’t investigate but trust blindly to what hotel said. “We didn’t answer any call. The guest agreed on the $4000 deep cleaning policy” First, I very disappointed to the hotel. Absolutely a SCAM! And now disappointed on the “investigation”, first is $4000 deep policy a normal practice for Hk hotels? Or all hotel.com booking? And is it reasonable? I’ve used hotel.con for years. No way I can find such sneaky policy. It’s just totally a SCAM in Hk tourism industry.
