We booked the room through a travel agency as part of a total package. The agency staff told us the hotel was refurbished not too long and comfortable for leisure stay. In fact, we had to pay slightly more for this hotel.
The Good :)
1. Location is good - close enough to MTR, TST shopping area, local eateries. The walk to Harbour CIty area (near Star Ferry) was bearable for our parents. Very often, we would roam around the hotel's vicinity till midnight as shops close at late hours.
2. While the room is not huge, it is considered good enough by HK standard.
3. Requests for extra room amenities were frequently met at short waiting time.
4. Airport Express Bus Shuttle stops just at the hotel main entrance.
5. A 7-11 store is very closeby so you can get your snacks and drinks at local prices.
The Bad :(
1. Though it's refurbished, my family felt the room is a little tired looking. There is no disposable/paper hand towels provided (so do prepare plenty of them!), no safe in the room, pathetic bath towels, worn out looking carpets...
2. Prat Avenue can be a little noisy and messy. Day time, you'll find people hanging around the lottery centre and in the evening, more people hanging around the few pubs in the vicinity.
In brief, choose this hotel only if (in order of ranking)
1. price is great
2. location is more important than comfort (then again, there are better located hotels)
3. you have no better options!
Personally, I'd avoid this hotel if possible. Pay a couple more dollars and the next hotel may be tons better than this!
