my friend and I stayed here for 9 nights after booking through a student based travel agency. for the price we paid, we really wern't sure wat to expect, and the mixed reviews on the site didnt help either.
we were both surprised by the hotel, the interior, the helpful staff, and our room, as well as the bathroom and overall cleanliness.
the hotel's location is perfect, as it isn't on nathan road, but only a 10 minute walk. the hotel offers a first come first served shuttle bus every 3omins, which drops you off outside one of the mtr entrances (which you could walk to in 10minutes) and about a 10 minute walk from the avenue of the stars, and the pier, where you get the boat over to causeway bay.
the hotel has switches for "do no disturb" to put on at night, and a "make our room" switch for when we went out. the hotel offers free wifi and an ethernet cable is provided in every room in the pull out drawer underneath the mirror. if you havent got your laptop or wifi device with you, the hotel will offer 15 minutes of internet usage for $15 and then a dollar per minute thereafter. however, it is fair to say that the staff arent overly picky and we only ever paid $15 despite using the internet foralmost 30-40 minutes at a time.
our room on the 6th floor did not have a safe, which was slighlty inconvenient but it really wasn't that big of a problem. there is a small closet with about 10 or so hangers provided along with the usual slippers and cleaning mits etc. the fridge/minibar is for personal use also, so we just used to put drinking water and milk from the welcome opposite or the 7eleven just on the corner.
(just a quick heads up, you need to put youre used towels in the bath tub if you need them replacing with fresh ones)
the top floor is dedicated to a small gym (two treadmills and a cross trainer and some freeweights) and the best bit of all, the nintendo wii, WITH TWO CONTROLLERS :) i was quie surprised to see no one hogging the wii although May is supposed to be a quiet time according to the locals. either way we wernt complaining. the pool is also alot bgger than we thought, it is true that you can do lengths.
overall, the hotel is deffinitley worth staying in and i would recommend it to sudents aswell as couples, who we saw a lot of whilst hanging out near the roof top pool. planning on going back in september and i have no reason not to want to stay here again
