MacLehose Trail - Section 2

Great location. Less than 5 minutes walk from Tin Hau MTR station so it’s really convenient for the main sights. Less than 20 minute walk to Causeway Bay. We had the executive room which includes a microwave and tap and sink, but note that NO plates or cutlery are provided, only 2 small teacups, 2 tall glasses and 2 teaspoons (whereas the hotel photos seem to imply they provide basic kitchenette facilities). The room only has a single chair which isn’t ideal for a couple. Despite being slightly larger than the average standard HK hotel room, there isn’t that much space at the end of the bed once both suitcases are opened on the floor. There is nowhere to put suitcases other than on the floor. Location was great but I’m not sure I would stay in this particular hotel again unless the price was reasonable, which it was when I originally booked this.

There is only security guard at night helping with self check-ins, a little inconvenient, but the staffs are very helpful. Rooms are small but have everything you need. Interesting concept to have a communal kitchen and lounge. Laundry facility is definitely a plus. The only downside is, there is renovation going on 3rd floor while we stay, but the hotel didn’t blocked off the unsightly mess.

The location of the accomodation was excellent for accessing absolutely everything in Hong Kong. Air conditioning was amazing and cannot be faulted, the room was perfectly refrigerated. The size of the room was standard. If you’re not overly fussy you’ll be happy staying here. Reception staff weren’t overly helpful or communicative at check in, however we didn’t need to go there again until check out so it was a non-issue. The cleaning staff were lovely. The main two considerations in whether to book this accomodation or not would be that there was mould in the bathroom in the shower and around the sink, which is off putting, especially in a space where you cannot open the windows or avoid close proximity to it in such small quarters. The other is that the wi-fi was extremely unreliable and we couldn’t stream to the tv. We had an E-Sim, but without it our travel plans would have been extremely difficult relying on the hotel. If the wifi and mould issues were fixed I’d be giving five star reviews.
