Small and need renovation guesthouse.
They said they “upgrade” me to a better room when I checked in. Yet, the condition of the room is really poor. I can see wires Socket (internet and phone) is exposed, TV remote on/off switch is not working, the so call cloth cabinet is so short that shirts are touching the bottom, wallpaper is peeling off, shower room is so small that I have difficulty to turn.

Conveniently located but out of the busy street
Conveniently located but out of the busy street. Many food choices nearby until late (past midnight). Bathroom is bigger than most similar size hotel. Someone is in the front desk 24 hr with many cameras. Only complain is noise from the hallway. Door does not automatically close and make reminder sound if you don't play attention. I have to go out to close someone's door at 2 am.

Value for money
Quite a walk away from MTR. About 8 min. Serviced by a nearby convenience store. 15 min to temple Street night market and 8 min to Ladies Mkt. Service personnel are kind and friendly, but mostly spoke in Cantonese, not English. Room size decent for the price, but don't expect too big given thata how Hong Kong is. Walls not sound proof. Something about the card access door... It sounds like an alarm if you do not close the door in.. 6 seconds? So you be hearing the alarm sounding off from your neighbours when they don't close fast enough. Can be annoying. WiFi connection decent and speedy

This hotel is old and simple. The building felt dirty and the rooms are not very comfortable. It was cheap compared to surrounding hotels but in hindsight I would have paid a bit more to stay somewhere else.

Value for money
Actually was not a long walk to Mongkok MTR. Around there's many eatery and close to many actions. Despite that, it is still a quiet street (minus some ground works done at the main road). For the price and e standard size of HK rooms, this is considered value for money. Prompt room cleaning daily. Would consider staying again in future if back to HK

Good value
Very big room for HK standards, big toilet with a lot of hot water and pressure. Wifi worked very well, in general good value. The area is not so good, you need to walk about 10 min to arrive in the most commercial streets of Mongkok. But not a problem for us. I would recommend this hotel.

This place was good for the amount of money I paid. Room lights were half working so the room was very dim. My legs were bit by bugs. Hair in the shower drain that wasn’t my hair. Air condition remote battery was dead. But location was very good to the busy streets

As the name suggests this hotel in minimal, but it is conveniently located in Mongkok. The rooms are basic, but clean and the staff is friendly. It is a short three block walk to the airport bus stop.

Room was bigger than that of the hotel on the same block where I stayed at last year. This hotel is better. Has a safe and electric cooler (ref) in the room. Right where I need to go. Very near shopping and transportation. I'll definitely go back there next time I visit Hongkong.

Best value for money at best location
We were pleasantly surprised by how much bigger the room (and the bathroom) is compared to the few other hotels we had tried in the area. The double is a real double bed, unlike other slightly wider single. The staff are all so helpful and friendly. The location is amazing with everything from transport to shops and money exchange right at the door step. We will definitely only stay here for our future trips.

Is ok for the price given.
Some part of the room condition is rather not good. Some rust on the fake ceiling in the bathroom. Ventilation not good. Hotel location is very convenient but near a shady area (prostitutes). Access from "Canton Road" is much safer than the other. Room is noisy and if ur neighbor talks loud, u can almost hear their conversation. Staffs are very nice and good. The equipment feel clean and the room has everything hotel should have. Bed is ok. Tv is small but ok.
