It's ok
Can feel the music vibration from our room in level five. The mattress although hard but I can feel my partner whenever he moved. Not for light sleepers. Water pressure is good and hot water is quite immediate. There is a free mini bar which made us feel welcoming. Hotel is located up the slopes so unless you enjoy walking it would be quite a walk to the nearest mtr.

A good spot close to Central and many clients. Above KLF but sound was not an issue. Room was a good size. Nice desk area. Mini-bar offering upon arrival (but not refilled) was a nice touch. If walking from Central, take the mid-level escalator up to the Parade Ground/Old Prison and you will get right to the entrance without much perspiration

Fantastic room
Our room was so spacious, enormous for Hong Kong. Even the bathroom was spacious, with a really long vanity. Equipment included motorised curtains and blind, free mini bar, plenty of hanging space and a table and 2 chairs. The staff were excellent, especiallyFelix and Arhur, who went out of their way to be helpful. Don't be put off by the tiny foyer.

Staff is great, location is closed to Lai Kwai Fong and just a few walk to mtr. It is really good to have free mini bar and snacks. But it is quite disappointed on the interior and furniture, the lightning is too dim, inside looks torn.

They claim the rooms are 33 sq metres when they are really only 23 sm. Water dripping from roof vents, mould in shower, laminate floor falling apart, fridge not working, no drawers for clothes, tiny wardrobe, almost no storage, nowhere to put stuff in bathroom, and numerous other minor issues. They moved us to another room still small also with many issues.
