The room is basic but clean. - A multi-purpose shampoo and body wash dispenser is provided in the washroom. - Disposable body and face towels are provided, but not a toothbrush or toothpaste, we brought our own. - A wall-mounted TV, kettle, and hair dryer are provided. - Room air-con was cold - No breakfast was provided, but that was fine for us. - What works for us was the location, walking distance to MTR (Central/Hong Kong Station), Tram Peak, near Victoria Peak, Lan Kwai Fong.

was ok the bathroom is really tight. it you are 180 CM and 114 Kg hard to get in and out. and the bed is small your feet hang off. Alos the Hotel is cheap they charge you 10 HKD to check a bag after paying to stay there a few nights it sleazy and I only recommend this place if you want to party in the area and not have to struggle to find a cab under 500 HKD at 2 am after a night out to go back to Kowloon. Also, what's the deal with paper towel's for towels, literally no old fashioned cotton towels.

Great place for Solo travelers

The price is right for the short term or long-term solo stay be for work and or a solo travelers vacation, the price was perfect. It was in a great neighborhood with lots to do walking distance to the train station that I suggest you take a taxi if you have luggage, those rooms are small. So if you just are traveling light, it’s perfect.

The Mini hotel website for Central (this hotel) and the Causeway Bay advertises there is a safe in the room but in fact there is not in this Central one. The staff saying that the Causeway Bay one is operated independently from the Central one. Hence the Causeway Bay Mini has a safe in the room but the Central Mini doesn't.

It is quite cheap but unless your a solo traveller and dont have a big luggage for all your shopping this isnt the hotel for you im 5ft tall and I struggled it was so tight and the bed has yellow liquid at the bottom part of the bed and it was dusty and not clean. they also only give disposable towels and the towels are like toiler paper thin, so overall if you are really wanting to save money this hotel is still doable if not just go add an extra few bucks for a bigger one

None of the rooms has a safe..

This is a budget hotel - understood. There was however ann inaccuracy in the room description that I want to flag. My room was described as having a laptop compatible safe. I’m travelling for business and I specifically wanted a safe. On arrival I found no safe and when I questioned the reception, they told me that there haven’t been safes in the rooms for years now. Please update the details on your site to reflect this.

Where do I start? Let's just say I was... taken aback by the experience. First of all, it was not made clear in the listing on Expedia that there is NO HOUSEKEEPING in this hotel. Yes, nobody comes up to your room to pack it for 7 days. Housekeeping is only done every 7 days. If you want to request for an extra housekeeping session, it will cost 200HKD (I believe). This is the first time I've seen this, ever. Secondly, no towels are provided. Only one paper towel is given (yes, one) and I had to request for another one for my partner. I gave up and bought a couple towels from a nearby grocery store. The hotel is on the top of a steep hill and be prepared to carry your luggage all the way up 300 meters of a steep slope and staircases if you're coming from the nearby MTR station. Not the fault of the hotel of course. On the positive side, Internet is strong and fast. Check-in and out were quick (although, I guess there isn't much to check in the room). I would recommend this hotel if you come in with eyes wide open that there is no housekeeping and no towels provided. If you think that I'm nitpicking and this is a 'budget' hotel, then my answer is that I've gone to HK hotels that have cost this price (sometimes even less) and not had to deal with no housekeeping / no towels. I suggest that Expedia make this amply clear on the listing page to prevent any misunderstandings. I would certainly NOT go to a hotel that has no housekeeping service, for instance!
