We stayed at Youni’s apartment for 2 weeks around Christmas time and had a fantastic experience.
The apartment is located in a block adjacent to the New Town Plaza in Shatin, this is a fantastic location and provided easy access (within 5 minutes walk) to Shatin train station, bus station including direct bus to the Airport and several interlinking local shopping malls, restaurants and cinema. There is also a handy supermarket located a few minutes away with access from the ground floor of the building.
Shatin for us was the perfect location for visiting relatives in the New Territories (the purpose of our trip) whilst being in easy reach of central locations.
The apartment itself is clean and very comfortable, the rooms are compact (standard for Hong Kong) but the space is very cleverly utilised with Sofa bed, drop-leaf table, under bed storage etc. in terms of amenities, everything has been thought about, the kitchen and bathrooms are well stocked and there are toiletries a hairdryer, washing machine with plenty of detergent and clothes airer, iron/ironing board and dehumidifier, in hindsight we could have come with half the amount of clothing and saved on luggage space! There is also a portable fan heater which kept the apartment warm on the cold December nights.
Both Youni and her aunt were very responsive to messages before and during our stay. Check in and Check our process was simple and easy. Upon arrival, Mrs Cheung (Youni’s aunt) was at the apartment to greet us and helped with our luggage and a quick guide on how everything works.. the complimentary noodles/coffee etc. was a nice touch which we appreciated after a long journey. The check-out was equally straightforward, Mrs Cheung came to the apartment at our planned departure time to pick up keys.
In summary, this apartment offers a very comfortable home-from-home stay in a fantastic location, and the hosts are wonderful. Highly recommended, we would definitely stay here again in future!
