Very bad. Only location is great
No wonders why it as so many bad reviews. Sometimes i dont give much about them but this time, they were all true. The only positive thing is the location. which is great. But its super small, there is no "chill" area,which makes a hostel a good place so you can socialize with others. But, what made me want to leave that place as soon as posible, was the staff, super rude. Specially the lady at the front desk. I wouldnt recommed people to stay here.

I (a female) went by myself, and was never in any danger. Never saw any bed bugs or other insects/bugs. Yes, it is a small room, but you get what you pay for. My t.v. and fridge did not work. The blow dryer was very noisy and you could only use it for a few minutes at a time before it stopped working. There was hot water available right outside my room. If you're on a budget and not picky, then you'll be alright to stay here. The biggest inconvenience was having to leave a deposit for your room key and having to make another payment for the "cleaning fee" in HK dollars. Yes, waiting for the elevator was a hassle most of the time. I mostly took the stairs.

The lift is a real problem. Always a long queue plus a rude lift women cleaner . The night shift Indian man always put up a long face ! No topping of toiletries. Not much moving space inside the room and windows are all lock-up, that including the corridor window. If someone got a cold it will spread to everyone and when there is a fire smoke will kill you first because all windows are closed tight. The mineral water dispense was empty for days till I left !

Consider some options
The only thing that I can say is if a traveler wants an enjoyable accommodation experience, book for a better hotel. But if you want a cheaper hotel to stay and good proximity and doesn’t care about the service and facility and convenience, as well as safety, then by all means this hotel is for you. I completely regret booking this hotel. Well, pictures can really be deceiving.

Small hotel in a good location
Quite disappointing bec of the room size and elevator too small and slow. I think they need to change the picture so as not to mislead future guests. One good thing is the location, close to everything.

Not many signs and very hard to find. They charge a cleaning fee when you check in even though the bathroom isn’t clean. One bathroom shared between 18 people. Is not a proper shower but a water heater on the wall connected to a shower head therefore the shower wets the whole bathroom.

WiFi doesn't work very well, some of the staff didn't seem to care. Room was not as in the picture provided. But the room is clean it's in the Indian section of Hong Kong. Plenty of indian food convenient location. Easy to take the bus to and from airport. Bus A21 is good choice for that trip

Staff of the hotel was very accommodating but the hotel and the rooms are too small. We asked for towel for two but they told us that towels are only available in the morning! And the beds!? Bed bugs got all over my body that I couldnt sleep anymore, and when we were about to check out. I saw the bed bugs crawling in our beds with i think my blood on it!!! Worse experience

Was small, once inside in comments n areas was pretty clean, but outside wasn’t. Also the bed was enclosed and barley fitted into the room. I had to sleep diagonally - with my bags on the bed - to make myself fit

Very rude staff and cockroaches and spiders
I called to hotel as I couldn't find the location, but the rude staff ignored me and just cut my call. I called three times because the staff keep cut my call with any replying. And the room was very dirty, smelly and small. I was very shocked because cockroaches and spider were crowling on my bed. I booked 10 floor but there was no room and staff asked me go down to 6 floor, and never informed how to find the room. this guest house is very irresponsible and have no manners for clients.

buyer Beware worst hotel ever
Buyer beware. Manila hotel is the worst i have ever stayed.. Pictures are a lie as to how rooms look...they are not as big as you think..they actually are smaller than a prison cell . You can barley move around in the room. the toilet area is your shower and its so small you can barely take a shower the bed is a wooden based that is hand made and the mattress is paper thin and very uncomfortable. There isn't any room service , they don't clean the rooms regularly, if you want it cleaned during your stay, you need to pull teeth and nail to get it cleaned.there WiFi is interment-ant always returning you a no signal or a page not found do to internet issues.buyer beware dont book a manila hotel room as it will be your worst experience ever.Dont pre-pay or book your stay here
