I strongly advise you find an alternative place to stay while in Hong Kong. I don’t want to bash this place, so I’ll just stick to the facts:
• Strong fishy smell that didn’t subside
• Only one hand towel and bath towel provided per person
• Standing water in kitchen that would return within minutes of being soaked up
• The patio door from the hall is broken and requires you to go through a bedroom in order to access the patio.
• This unit is on the third floor but requires walking up 4 flights of stairs.
• There is NO common room indoors which would make hanging out with your companion or having guests impossible.
• The host requires meeting in person for check-in
• The host also will do a full inspection at check-out as if it was the end of a lease and will document any and all issues that she feels she needs reimbursement for.
• Another important note: even though you are booking a 2 bedroom unit, you must specify that you are bringing a guest with you or else the host will seek payment for having 2 guests and not 1.
