Hi Andrea. Thank you for your quick responses during our stay and for all the detailed information leading up to our stay. Your building and house manual info was very well documented and very appreciated.
It is in a fantastic location. It is a short 8min walk to the MTR and we are around the corner from some very upscale shopping. The street itself is kind of a back street, and there are a few noodle shops and smaller local eateries right on that street. Cutting through to the street behind the apartment you will find more little restaurants.
The apartment is tastefully renovated and decorated, and very soothing to come home to. I was happy with the kitchen cutlery and bowls, dishes, cooking utensils too and found the selection to be very convenient. I also liked that there were labeled hooks in the bathroom and kitchen for specific towels- so organized, and so smart! I liked that there was the extra little area next to the kitchen to keep our luggage and the drying rack there was great to hang items that were not quite dry from the dryer.
One thing that I thought could be improved for future stays was getting a deeper cleaning on a regular basis vs. a topical clean. The living room, dining room, and bedrooms were clean and comfortable but there was a lot of black mold on the inside of the toilet and in the shower door slides, as well as brown grease/dust on the kitchen faucet crevices and stovetop hood buttons. There was also some shower gel residue and dust on the top of the glass shelf that surrounds the shower door. The cleaner just needs to put more attention in those spots.
Also, the caulk in bathroom around the sink and shower areas were spotted, and may not be able to be cleaned. This is a common problem to humid environments and any bathrooms with a renovation over a few years old, so these should be replaced soon.
Anyway, we did have an overall enjoyable stay. The set up of the apartment was very good.
The beds were very comfortable and the pillows were sooo nice! The comforters are super fluffy and luxurious. We had good nights’ sleep with all of these. There was no flat sheet provided so if you are used to that, you can bring your own. We didn’t use the futon for sleeping at night but a family member had a few naps on it and it seemed comfortable.
Also, the wardrobes in each bedroom were very useful, with hangers on one side and shelves on the other side.
Andrea left one adapter for us we could use (to convert power for up US electronics). The WiFi was reliable and strong. (Yay!)
Overall, the apartment was a relaxing, quiet place to unwind after each busy day of sight seeing. Andrea was great with communication and we enjoyed our stay. Thanks again.
