Shanghai Red in Hong Kong

A very convenient place to stay. 5-minute walk to the nearest train station. Overall, it is worth staying for a short trip.

I often skipped this hotel as an option before because of the many bad reviews on another booking site. But this time, price was too interesting not to try.

I'm often on transit in or out of Hong Kong by high speed train and the location is 5-10 minutes walk from HKwest Kowloon.

Upon arrival, receptionist was very friendly and it was a fast check-in. Got into my single room, and as expected, it's super small. Don't expect to have place to open a big suitcase, except on your bed. (You can store it under the bed). The room was very hot, and unfortunately even after opening the AC, after one hour the room still felt hot. I went to ask the receptionist who then came to help me check, but it still didn't work. I went out for a walk (the neighborhood is a little shady with all the "massage sir" proposals, but just ignore them) and when I came back, a new receptionist told me they were going to change me to another room as the AC didn't work. Really appreciated!

The double room compared to the single feels like a suite. If you can spare the few extra $, totally worth it. It's still small, but at least you can move around.

I do recommend this hotel if you need a convenient location and not looking for any extras. Just a bed with a private bathroom at a cheap price.

The hotel is well located near metro and buses. I stay was good.
