Star Rating: 4 Star (Self rated)
Price Range Rating: (No idea, did not pay)
Convenience for Hotel Girl Punting Rating: 5 (Double edge sword: no security check and no keycard required to use lift... so they can waltz up to your room for your convenience and so can ANY ONE ELSE for that matter)
Convenience for Walk Up Punting Rating: 5
Convenience for Bar Girl Punting Rating: No necessary, WG's and their mammasan/papasan congregates outside (in the park) awaiting potential customers after the sun goes down
W/GIRL FRIENDLY: YES
Any special comment:
Pros:
Complimentary shuttle back and forth from airport
Free Wifi
Cons:
A little further to trek for the MTR, East TST (about 10mins?)
Needs a make over, looks rather dilapidated
Once you have accepted a 'transaction' downstairs with the mammasan, the WG reports back with your room #
And they'll harass you for another 'transaction' the following night by calling your room
They're relentless, one occasion, the mammasan came upstairs herself to inspect if you had a WG in your room
They'll often bring an alternative just in case for more business
Would I return, maybe... the area was secluded from the busy TST strip but wasn't within reach if required
So I'd try other hotels in the neighborhood | |
