Mary’s apartment exceeded many of our expectations. It was large enough for four (fairly petite) adults although we spread sleeping arrangements across all three rooms. Arrival instructions were perfect. One of the best pieces of Mary’s advice is to use A21 airport bus if you’re carrying luggage. Much - much - easier than using MTR with all the changes and escalators. (If you do use MTR to Yau Ma Tei take Exit A1 and you are 5 metres from the apartment entrance)
The elevator and walk up to the rooftop apartment is very easy.
We were surprised at how spacious the apartment is; the only difficulties a group of 4/5 may have are space to stash suitcases and where to sit and eat if you decide to cook/eat in the apartment (we didn’t).
The apartment’s new bathroom is really well done. Lots of space and hooks for towels and a very decent shower.
The two bedrooms are best described as “cosy” ; the double beds themselves were very comfortable but there’s not much room around them.
The aircon in the two bedrooms and the lounge area worked very well.
The in-house WiFi was very fast. We had five devices logged on. Mary also has some handy adapters and chargers. We even watched some tv. The English language choice is limited, but you don’t visit HK to watch TV, do you?
The YMT area is buzzing. Great authentic atmosphere and you’re right in the middle of it. But the apartment itself is very quiet; we never had any problem in falling asleep.
Mary is a great host. It’s people like her and her apartment that make Airbnb such a success.
Highly recommended for up to 4 adults wanting to be in the heart of a vibrant Chinese community.
