Firstly, I shall start with the positive things:
Even though Yin was in Europe at the time and we did not get to meet with her, comunication was perfect and check in was super smooth. The location of the place can not be better - SYP is a great neighborhood and the MTR station is just around the corner. You can easily shop in a couple of Welcome supermarkets or in SYP central market - which are all a couple minutes walk. The apartment is nicely devided with a bedroom, living room, kitchen and bath and even though it is small, it has ample place for 2 (not more). We extended our stay thanks to Yin, who arranged a cleaner, changed the electric kettle that disintegrated and was really helpful. Needless to say, we found the price of the place to be right too.
The other side of the coin: it is an old place, and apart from fresh paint, it seems that everything has been there for decades. The only table chair (there is also a small uncomfortable stool) is old, dirty, rusty and quite uninviting to sit on. The shower hose is also disintegrating and some other kitchenware is not in working order ( we decided not to bother Yin anymore). The only closet and drawers are full of clothes and they are not cleaned regulartly so there is a lot of dust in the aparment. There are a couple of full bookshelves which restrict the possibility to move in such a small place (especially the one in the bedroom - it leaves no sidespace at all). It is so unfortunate, since with really small changes and very little investment it could really have been a dream place.
If you are there for couple days, then it is definitely OK and recommended.
