Hotel S Macau — Hotel in São Lourenço

This is the first time I enjoyed a long business trip in Macau. ||The hotel was chosen by a local partner for many reasons. ||The Taxi driver taken me to Hotel S mentioned that it was bought by the Ho Family some time ago.||Somehow I feel it a very European hotel, small, cozy and just sufficient stuff for what one wants, not too much or too little. ||What I like about the hotel|1) Boutique style with 15 floors|2) Front desk with all English spoken staff |3) Comfortable lobby with sunny decoration |4) It has a tailored aroma in the lobby matching with its soap in the room||What I like about the guest room|1) The hotel gave me a free upgrade |2) The hotel invests in comfortable thick futon-like mattress |3) Guests have four pillow-styles to choose from|4) Open closet without doors giving more space ||What I like about the room decoration |1) Marilyn Monroe printed painting on the wall|2) Another contemporary printed pairing on feature wall |2) Small cute cubic refrigerator with British flag print |3) Functional working desk|4) Adjustable stand light good for lighting the desk while I work ||What surprised me|1) When I put up the “clean my room” card on the door handle, the cleaning team responded swiftly and soon someone pressed the door bell|2) The team was all men cleaners, English spoken. They finished the cleaning within 10 or less short minutes but leaving impression that they did clean the room well |3) When I asked for laundry service on the day of arrival, a lady showed up within 5 minutes with a balance and weighed immediately the clothes for cleaning. ||Happy surprise about this hotel is very pleasant. I checked the room price on internet. It was very reasonably priced in particular during COVID-19! ||I had bought a bathrobe at MOP300 because that was the only option if I wanted one. Due to my long stay, it is only a few dollars a day, so...

I came across this hotel online and I immediately liked the photos of the façade posted by the hotel management and some travelers. However, when we got there, we couldn't see any of it since the building's entire façade is covered due to ongoing renovation. The taxi driver of the cab we took was also not familiar with the hotel's new name. At any rate, the lobby looked clean and nice even if it's quite small. There's a sala and a café on the same floor. We arrived a bit early. They're very strict with the check in time -- hence, they didn't allow us to check in ahead of time. Luckily they allowed us to leave our bags in their luggage room. Mind you that check in time (at 3:00 PM) is quite late compared to other hotels, while check out time (at 11:00 AM) again in earlier compared to other hotels. That's exactly only a 20-hour accommodation! ||Anyway, the room is not that big, but it's very nicely decorated, very "girlie", I should say. The halls on the upper floors are also nicely adorned with special light effects. Basic toiletries are provided. WIFI signal is good. Minimal facilities. No swimming pool, no restaurant (except for a small café on the ground floor), etc. What's good about this hotel is its location. It's just a few meters away from the Senado Square and other tourist destinations. Bus stops are just around the corner and other eateries as well. So if you're looking for a simple place to stay in, very basic with no frills whatsoever but conveniently located, then this is the right...

Stayed 1 night here, the location is convenient, just walking distance to major spots and many shops and restaurants nearby. Now the hotel renamed as Hotel S, but most of the taxi drivers only know its old name.||||Most of the staffs are rude and not friendly, and our standard triple room is small. What we booked is a non-smoking room, but when we check-in, the room got a very strong smoking smelt. As its around 19:00 and what we need is a triple room, we didn't bother to change and just turn on the fan of the air-con. But when we called the front desk for three more pillows (only have one for each bed at first), the lady was very rude and denied it at once. I never meet this situation in any other hotels before, and don't know why i need to explain our sleeping habit so as to get the pillows. Finally, she agreed to give us only two ( a good deal?) ........... and it took us about 30 mins to wait to get the pillows so that we can go out to dinner. How ridiculous it is! ||||There is a simple mini-bar and a hanger for clothes, no wardrobe. Kettle is available. Free bottle of water is also provided.||||The bathroom size is ok. Towels are clean. Hair dryer, shampoo, body wash and basic toiletries are provided. But only fixed shower head is available.||||For this rate ( around US 200) , i don't think it...
