Kyoto Guest House — Hotel in Hong Kong

When I first got to the Chung King Mansions I regretted my decision to be a tight and after about 20minutes waiting for a lift (there is only one lift and there is always large delays) I got to my room and I couldn't believe how small it is.. So glad I was a solo traveller, if i was with someone it would have been hell even though I got a double room, I would have hated to see the single room!. ||||I left my room and headed out for the night, got back to go to sleep only to find out the pillows and mattress are rock hard! I ended up using the towels as a pillow. ||||The Aircon is very loud and kept me awake all night or it could have been the rock hard mattress.||||Waking up the next morning I really considered leaving but I am a stubborn person, so I went to have a shower only to realise the hot water is very temperamental and only last for a few minutes but the worst thing was there was no shower! It was above the toilet so when you need to do your business later on you had a wet seat.||||Advise for everyone, if you want to save money and dont need any comforts in life go for it, as it has a great location. But my recommendation is that you pay more and stay elsewhere. ||||After 2.5 week holiday it wasn't a great way to...

We actually stayed here Sept of 2011. And as far as I can remember, the experience was good from our email exchanges with them back then for the booking (wherein we paid in half and the rest in cash upon arrival) until our stay which was for 3 nights except for the elevator rides (long queues, cramped space) and people always trying to sell/offer you something. The room was small and clean. But space wasn't an issue for us as most of the days we were outside exploring the city and was just there to freshen up ourselves and have a good night's sleep (which we had). Owner and her assistant were friendly and accommodating enough. Overall, I can say that I can recommend this place to those who: (1) want to be near to the MRT, (2) want to be near the ferry station esp if you have plans in going on a side trip to Macau, (3) want to be near downtown HK, (4) a budget traveler and (5) will spend most their time outside...
