The location was convenient for shops and restaurants, just a short walk from the MTR station and CityFlyer station. The dining experience offered a variety of local delicacies nearby. However, the air conditioning controlled from outside the room was a bit inconvenient.

I had a mixed experience at this hotel. The rooms are cleverly designed to give an impression of space, but they are quite small with only a view and no other amenities. On the bright side, they are new and tidy, and the hotel is conveniently located close to the metro with plenty of restaurants around.
