    The only downside is the room decor and furniture were out dated. The paint on the wall is chipped and the bed is old.

    Staffs there are very helpful and nice. Our room was cleaned and tidied everyday by the staffs. Location is very convenient.

    I recommend keeping the toilet lid closed at all times, especially each flushing, as there was an unpleasant smell came from the toilet bowl — this issue was resolved by keeping the lid closed. The air-conditioning wasn’t very strong, but it was manageable during early May.

    Homy Residence @ Hong Kong – Room 4B (5D4N Stay) Conveniently located within walking distance to Yau Ma Tei MTR Exit C, near Nathan Road. Few convenience shops nearby like 7-Eleven, Circle K and Mannings. The room was clean and tidy, the bathroom well-maintained, and daily cleaning was provided. While the building exterior looks run-down, the interior is comfortable and matches the photos shown online. There is a lift provided, and the free Wi-Fi connection was stable throughout our stay. There was no daily bottled water supply, so we bought water from the convenience store next door. We always bring our own disposable towels, so we have no comment on towel quality. We were two female travelers, and each had our own bed—considering the price paid, it offered great value for money. The area is literally quieter and less touristy compared to more crowded districts like Mongkok, Tsim Sha Tsui or Central. Most nearby shops of this building are local stores selling local kitchenware, giving it a more authentic neighborhood feel. I also suggest staying in this area as the roads are flat and easy to navigate, unlike Central, which has many staircases and uneven streets. Highly recommended food hunt: Try the coconut chicken soup along Nathan Road, and don’t miss the best polo bun at Kam Wah Café (C&C Shop). Overall a solid choice for a clean, comfortable, and convenient city stay.

    The water didn't seem to evaporate fast enough in the bathroom , there was a bit of a smell but leaving the fan on helped. The toilet flushing was weak, we sometimes had to flush twice. Our room did not have heating so when the outside temperature dropped around 17 or below, it was rather cold to sleep.

    Amazing location with great nearby shops and restaurants!! Kind and friendly service by the hosts. Our room was comfortable and spacious enough for two. Necessities are provided, towels and sheets were clean. Water, coffee and tea provided in the common room was convenient. AC worked well, and the small kitchenette was handy.

    It is looking pretty tired with loads of scuffs and chips. Mould in the shower and frayed towels. You could hear talking and TV from the rooms above and below and a fair bit of road noise, although it isn’t on a main road so it could be worse.

    Staff were nice. 2 min walk to airport bus and to the metro station. Room was really big with a separate living area.

    Benny was so great and hospitable, even giving us candy on arrival. The cleaner was super lovely too. They both gave us recommendations which were awesome. The apartment is a street over from Nathan road, a main road, so close to everything but not noisy. It's also a short walk to the underground train station making get around super easy. The facilities are a bit dated and run down but what can you expect in the old town. It is quite expensive but it's Hong Kong, everywhere is expensive.
