The single was extremely small, which is par for HongKong. There's barely room to squeeze past the single bunk bed. No desk, no chair. Other than that, staff was very helpful. Location is perfect in the middle of town, within walking distance to the 3 light rail stations. There's also a very convenient bus stop just across the street for direct transport to the HK International Airport -- for a mere HK$17 (approx US$2.25). Cannot beat that at any other major airports of the world.

We ended up looking for another hotel that night. The image Joyous Guesthouse put on the website did not represent the actual condition of the place. Very dissappointed. We saw some small creatures crawling in the bathroom. Disgusting. I trusted Expedia to choose the best hotels in their website. That is why I booked this. But we felt betrayed,

Estadia no coração de Kowloon

Otima localização. A poucos passos da estação de metrô, situado da principal rua de Kowloon e a poucos passos da avenida das estrelas. O quarto é um pouco pequeno mas acredito ser o padrão da cidade. Cama e climatização super confortável. Atendimento ótimo.

Location is good. There’s a 7-11 & a few affordable restaurants just across a small street. There’s also an airport express bus stop across the small street. Staff are very friendly and helpful. It’s not my first time staying here. Definitely will stay at Eaton when I visit Hong Kong again!

Tiny box with comfy bed

This place is hard to find and you have to contend with 1 to 2 dozen men offering you everything from watches, handbags, drugs and rooms just to get to the lift. The rooms are extremely small and don't look very much like the pictures. Also no good for anyone who doesn't enjoy sitting on the toilet whilst taking a shower, with no hot water. On the plus side, the staff were friendly and accommodating and the location is very convenient to the MTR and sights. The bed was also comfortable and the linen very soft and clean.
