Great location in Central Hong Kong, very near to attractions like the Airport Express and the mid level escalators, as well as famous eateries like Yat Lok. Shops like Wellcome and 7-11 are within easy walking distance as well.
Definitely recommended for backpackers who are looking for a convenient location at a great price.
Some caveats to note, especially for families with young children:
- The apartment requires you to walk up 3-4 flights of stairs
- The apartment is in a small alleyway inaccessible to cars. Many people smoke in the alleyway, and this smoke (as well as smoke from neighbors) gets into the living room of the apartment, and is quite bad.
- The smoke generally does not get into the rooms, even with the doors to the living room open.
- The water heater is quite hard to control, and the temperature veers from extremely hot, to extremely cold.
- Don't expect many channels from the TV, I can only access the news channels. The other channels are all previews.
