The hotel is situated right in the heart of Central, where culture, history, foods and shops converge. The price was lower compared to other nearby hotels considering the location. However I have a few things to note: 1) the room was extremely small with the bed nearly occupation 85-90% of the room space. There were no shelve or closet or table to put your stuff. So basically we needed to take what we needed out of suitcases and placed them on top of them. (2) bathroom was small and was somewhat moldy and drainage was average. The sink was small like an iPad size. There were no cloth towels to provide, they however offered disposable paper towels everyday. Therefore we went out to buy two big towels for the whole trip. (3) there are no window views, they boarded up the two windows likely to save curtains, the only light we had was from the lamp. (4) the walls are thin so you can basically hear the conversations next door and people were talking like 3am in the morning, bring your ear plugs the best kind. (5) the stuff are average helpful there was no hotel etiquette or concierge service so just make sure your expectations. The other good things are that there was self-serving laundry service at the roof top, which had a great view outside. The lobby was cute and people can hang out there since rooms are small to hang. Overall you pay (low) for what you get. So be informed of the amenities before booking. Thank you mini Central.

Room is very basic, mattress uncomfortable, spent one transit night, didn’t sleep at all, due to jet lag. Shower poorly designed, one paper towel, not enough for showering twice. Front desk staff not courteous. Reasonably priced for what you get.

Not a hotel room you would want to spend a lot of time in and they have disposable paper towels and would have paid extra to rent a proper one but it’s in a good location and has a nice common area

By American standards it is a cultural shock. The bed took up the room with little space to move or keep suitcases. Still, the location was convenient for that part of trip. But there are several stairs to get into the building from there they have elevators. The laundry machines are on roof and require more stairs. Area around is hills and lots of stairs so be prepared and they provide disposable towels might want to bring your own as I did.

it was what you’d expect with a place cheap and small as this. the worst thing was the towels, i thought they’d at least provide normal towels but what they essentially give you is a large napkin to dry yourself. there’s also mold in the rooms and not even enough space to undo a check in bag. however, the location is great. definitely take an uber to get here though or you’ll risk climbing all the stairs with your luggage like i did lol

Great location with affordable price —that's basically all what this property offers, which is good for those who want a short term stay in HK (like a layover). There're quite a few aspects about the room condition that can be improved, but at least the cleaniness is ok. I just wanna particularly complian about the use of disposable towels.,

The room is super small, and I wasn't even able to unfold my big suitcase on the floor. The beddings were humid, and the air conditioner was noisy. The price was low, but I was still surprised by the condition. But the location is great, close to central in walking distance.

You get very, very little because you pay very little - especially for the most expensive city in the world which is Hong Kong. A large person (77 kg) will not fit into the shower. No chair, no room cleaning, etc. Great location, safe area, many nice restaurants and bars nearby. Staff is friendly. Quiet rooms good for sleeping.

The location of the hotel is excellent. However, the hotel has made several changes not to my liking. The safe deposit box in all rooms have been removed about two months ago + disposable paper towels are given to us for use instead of real towels.

Perfect location, just enough space to use as a launching point for day long explorations. Also very helpful that they store luggage at HKD $10 a piece (USD $1.25) all day! I always stay here for 23h55m layovers on the way to places for a good reason. Good A/C, helpful staff, good water pressure, location can't be beat.

Just okay

Location is good. Personnel make you feel they're making you a favor. They're quite petty: no drinkable water in the room, you can hear everything from the outside, the room is extremely tiny and the bathroom has no privacy.
