Stay away by all means!
Stay away by all means! Terrible, absolutely terrible. Dirty, smelly. Cockroaches, black mold, dirty sheets, pilow cases. The hotel has mandatory clean-up fee of 20% of a rate! Additionally, there is a 100 local dollars deposit for freaking card key! Save your money, and choose another alternative!

受付はA座3Fにあって部屋はD座7Fのsingh guesthouseってところだった。 3Fには14時ごろは100%エレベータが満員で止まらないため荷物を持って階段を降りなければならないので重いと大変。 チェックインでは、追加料金(シーツ交換料一日20ドルと掃除代一日20ドル)とデポジット100ドルを払うと、何かの裏紙に入口の暗証番号を書いて渡されます。 この紙は捨てずに取っておかなければなりません。デポジットの引換券になっています。部屋の鍵を返すだけではデポジットを返してもらえません。 これはデポジット代をふんだくる詐欺のようなものです。 私は朝早い飛行機だったので前の晩にチェックアウトをしたのですが、一筋縄では行かないチェックアウトでした。 まず、デポジットを返してもらえない。 デポジット返してくれとおやじに言ったらレシート持って来いみたいなことを言われ、そんなもの貰った覚えないとなります。もしかしてあのメモ書きかと思い部屋に取りに返り(往復30分くらいかかりますエレベータが混んでいるので)、おやじに見せるとおーこれだこれだみたいなことを言ってデポジットを返してもらえました。普通こんなメモ書き捨ててるぜどうなっているんだここのシステムは! それともう一つ驚きのシステムが、チェックアウトすると部屋の鍵は回収されるということです。D座7Fに戻ってどうやって部屋に入るんだと聞くと、おやじがD座7Fのスタッフに電話して開けるというのだが、部屋に戻るまでの最大30分間は鍵開けっ放しとなります。さらに、部屋に戻ると鍵がないので外に出られない。不便だ! ところで、部屋の掃除は1回だけだったので掃除代とシーツ代返せって言いたかったけど交渉が難しいので断念しました。掃除代とシーツ代も詐欺ですね! 他に気づいたところは、 ・シャワーのお湯がぬるいというか冷たい(温水スイッチは部屋の外にあるのでこれも不便) ・タオル、石鹸なし(タオルは受付に言うとくれるが、逆に言うと言わないとくれない) ・電波入らない、ホテルのwifiつながらない ・コンセントが2個中1個通電していない(高い位置にあるテレビ用のコンセントしか使えない) ・テレビはほとんど映らない ・ベッドががたがた 以上の理由でおすすめしません。

독특한 냄새가 있구요. 시끄럽구요. 침대는 썩어 있네요. 조금 깔끔하기만 하면 가격대비 좋은 평가를 할수 있겠는데 권장하기에는 조금 그렇고 상태 대비해서는 가격이 좋은것은 아니라는 판단이 되네요.

Very disappointing!!!
Upon arrival, person-in-charge in reception area told us that the room we booked does not have any own comfort room. In the first place, why would we booked a room without our own cr? For us to have our own c.r, we have to pay extra 200hkd! Otherwise, we`ll use the common c.r! -_- No choice but to add extra. Grr. Number 2, the room was really different from the picture we booked! really disappointing, it was too small for the 3 of us. We booked a room with 3 single beds, what they gave us was 1 double bed and 1 single bed. We barely move in the area due to its super limited space! Plus, c.r was really small plus its disgusting smell. >.< Wasted our money for not worthy room.

Chunking Mansion worst hotel
This is the worst hotel we've experience (Chungkin Mansion). Our hotel room rooms are like cage of cockroach as it is full of cockroach. Eeewww. The bathroom are too small, the bedsheets smells like used already for a month, the fridge are very messy, the aircon & blower is not working, the room is too small. The receptionist are not accommodating. Cannot understand english and cannot speak english. Aside from that they charge us another tax which is 1050 HK dollar and when we were asking why they got angry. Overall experience is worst. Negative Five Star.

Too much bed
These rooms in the Chung King Mansions are always rather spartan, but for the price it usually doesn't matter. However, we had booked two twin beds, and were given a twin and a full size bed, in a room that was designed only for two twins at the most. So there was no room between the beds, and you had to crawl onto the beds to get around. The second night we were moved to a two-twin room, which was more what we were expecting.

침사추이 청킹맨션에 위치해 있습니다. 홀수층 운행하는 엘베가 1개밖에 없는데, 거의 모든 홀수층에 게스트하우스가 있고 1번에 5-6명 타요. 1층에서는 그냥 계속 기다려서라도 타는데, 나중에 체크아웃하고 내려올때는 계단으로 캐리어 옮겼습니다. 겨울이라 에어컨 안 틀고 냄새도 견딜만했는데, 에어컨 트니깐 악취나요. 청소하시는분 보니 시트 교체해주시던데, 매트리스에서 나는 냄새는 어쩔 수 없고, 더블베드 예약했는데도 보통 싱글 매트리스 크기입니다. 둘이 절대 못 자요

Horrible service, smelly room and extra charges
This was a pretty bad experience. Waste of money honestly. We arrived at about 9:30 am and their check-in time is 2 pm. We asked to keep our 2 bags at the reception till the check-in for which we were charged 30 HKD per piece. Secondly, at the time of check-in, we were charged an extra 20% cleaning fees (70 HKD). The room was smelly and horrible, the double bed we booked can only sleep 1 person. The staff unfriendly and said - this is not five star. Don't expect a good service. No toiletries except towels provided - need to purchase soap etc. from the hotel. Rip off!

九龍公園近くの安宿
香港中心部で、とても安い宿を探したい方におススメです。(無論、通常の綺麗さを求めていない方に限る。) 重慶大廈のAブロックの3階に受付があります。 このビルには、他にも沢山の宿が入居しています。 デポジットが100ドル少々取られました。 シャワーが共用か部屋に備え付けどちらが良いか聞かれました。シャワー付きだと少し高くなると言われましたが、結局追加料金は無かったです。 それから、シャワー付きの部屋は別のブロックにあるようで、Dブロックへ移動します。7階へ上がると右へ曲がり突き当たりにある右手側のドアのベルを鳴らすと受付の方が出てきます。 ドアの暗証番号を教えてもらえます。廊下の壁にwifiの暗証番号が貼ってあります。速度は十分でした。 部屋は綺麗ではりませんが、シーツは洗濯もしてありますし、そこが大きいと思います。 普通の感覚で言えば汚いです。 シャワーとトイレは一体型ですが、一体化し過ぎですからベタベタになるのが気になる方にはきついと思います。 しかし、ゆっくり眠れました。 連泊したので部屋を開けている間にベットメイクが入ります。何か取られてしまわないか心配になりますが、何も取られませんでした。 防犯カメラは、エレベーターや廊下に設置されています。 一階は中東系の人が宿の勧誘をしてきます。 飯を食べられる場所が沢山あり、私はここでカレーやチキン、ライス、チャパティなどを食べていました。安いですし、うまかったです。香港に来たのにチャパティばかり食べていました。 換金所もありますので、レートを確認の上利用すると良いと思います。銀行に行くのも面倒でしたので ビル一階の入り口近くにある、換金所で換金しました。3000円が205ドルになりました。
