I stayed in this lovely studio for 3 months. It made my stay in Hong Kong wonderful.... Hong Kong is definitely one of the most bustling and crowded cities, which can get very overwhelming for some- me, for example. But the thought of getting back to this cozy room at the end of the day- especially to the embrace of the bed, which I affectionately call my cozy 'bird nest', always somehow makes me happier. For 3 months, this studio was my safe and quiet haven amidst all the hustle and bustle.

I had many simple but wonderful memories living there: waking up in the mornings to the sunshine and the birds chirping, the walks (or standstill) up the mid-levels escalator feeling like a tourist yet a resident, taking away wonton noodles from nearby and eating it in the comfort of the room, partying at LKF knowing that I can just walk home after, exercising at Pure Fitness (5 minutes walk away), running to Central Piers etc etc. You get the best of both worlds- the liveliness of SoHo and Central, but the peacefulness of the quiet terrace, where the studio is located.

You have quite literally everything you need for a long stay here- a vacuum cleaner, knifes, utensils, ironing board, hair dryer, etc etc. The downside was that it has no washing machine- but any one who has had lived in Hong Kong would tell you that washing machines are usually not equipped inside the apartment (due to the tiny space). Instead, laundry shops are convenient located in many spots. Also, keep in mind that its on the 5th Floor and there's no elevator. When I first checked in, Joy (the host) graciously helped me up with my luggage. The check in and out process was fast and easy, no hassle.

All in all, I look back to my stay in this studio fondly. I would recommend this studio to anyone looking to stay long term or short term at Hong Kong Island.
