I stayed at this hotel that had a few drawbacks but was overall a decent choice. The rooms were a bit dated and the linen seemed a bit worn out, but the air-conditioning worked well and the beds were comfortable. However, the service had a mix-up with my reservation but was resolved eventually. The location was convenient near the main tourist area, but there were some issues with the cleanliness. The dining options were satisfactory with some freshly baked croissants available. The facilities were adequate, though not exceptional.

The hotel is ideally located at the Victoria Harbor, making it convenient for exploring the city quickly. The rooms, although lacking windows, were clean but somewhat claustrophobic. The service was a mix, with a receptionist error during the night shift but offering various useful amenities like car hire and laundry services. The dining experience included delicious homemade desserts. Overall, the facilities were satisfactory, with only limited options on-site. The value for money was decent considering the prime location.

The hotel is in a prime location at the Victoria Harbor, very close to the Avenue of Stars and within a 10-minute walk to the Star ferry terminal. The rooms, although with old and dirty linen and equipped with only a single bed and cold water in the bathroom, offer a budget-friendly stay in the heart of the city. The service provided, while lacking in reservation organization during the night shift, was friendly with helpful receptionists available. Dining options were affordable, with the highlight being thin crispy fries. Overall, the hotel provides basic facilities for a convenient stay right next to major tourist sites.
