  • Reviewer: Betty

    Comments: Top score for venue, location, service and value!! We thoroughly enjoyed the stay at Mark's place! Awesome weather in Hong Kong also.

  • Reviewer: Betty

    Comments: The apartment was perfect, bright and cosy and so easily accessible to transportation. Better than staying at a hotel, with all the kitchen facilities etc.. and a rooftop! Mark is a great host. He'd give us directions in Chinese for the taxi driver via wats app -- heaven sent! He's also given us some guidance on landmark places to visit in Hong Kong, and restaurants and bars nearby for the local delights. Don’t think we can get this from Lonely Planet or Lux Guide. Will definitely recommend this place/host to others!

  • Reviewer: Cherry

    Comments: Although I didn't have a chance to meet Mark in person,but he was very responsive to our needs. He was eager to prepare for us prior to our arrival. The room was simple with not many facilities but the Washroom was very clean.

  • Reviewer: Russell

    Comments: Mark's place was quite modern and in a wonderful neighborhood. There is ample transport right outside the building and many local restaurants nearby. Although I didn't get a chance to meet Mark he was quick to respond to all questions. The unit is newly renovated and would suit a couple quite nicely. Overall a nice experience and would recommend to other travellers :)

  • Reviewer: Wang

    Comments: I enjoyed my stay at Mark' s apartment. The location is good and accessible to lots of places. Mark is also responsive and kind for consultation. I definitely recommend the place in HK

  • Reviewer: Nicole

    Comments: What a beautiful apartment!! Great location, friendly neighbourhood easy to get around in Hong Kong Island, was so peaceful sitting at the window bench looking at the hill watching the eagles circling the other tall tall apartments~ perfect place to write~ It's defiantly an experience you won't get if stay at the hotel~ for me, it feels like I was part of the community, I loved it~ thank you so much mark for having me~ :) xx

  • Reviewer: Ori

    Comments: The apartment is in a nice location, few minutes walk from central, the view from the 25th floor is really nice. Arrived to the apartment alone, Mark the owner, was not present and left a key at the entrance. I found only 2 plates, 2 glasses, 2 spoons and 2 forks inside the freezer, in the kitchen. Apartment is in good shape but future visitor should know that it is completely empty, no kitchenware (no soap and a washing sponge to wash little dished i did have), no towels, no tooth paste, bring with you what ever you'll need. Mark was kind enough to bring some essentials (a towel and kitchen knife and some thing to wash the dishes with) after I sent a message asking for it. Few days before, I was staying with my friend at a different Airbnb apartment in HK. Really felt the difference arriving in a place which was not empty and the host gave thought to stuff the visitors would need while they are staying in his apartment.

    Comments: Great location! Clean and comfy. Host was a pleasure to deal with. Would definitely recommend.

  • Reviewer: Ar

    Comments: Both of the place and Mark also very nice.

  • Reviewer: Siu Man

    Comments: Near the MTR, sizeable flat with amazing view at the top of roof, very smooth communication with Mark and Sheila, anyway, good for money:)

  • Reviewer: Chubbyvan

    Comments: Good location, easy to find many local cafe& restuarants, close to mtr stations, the communication with the room owner before check in is very well. Good Neighbors. However, the facilities should be sufficient for the number of guests. For this place the suitable number of guess shouldn't be more than 3 persons. We confirmed with the owner for 4 persons but when we checked in there is only 1 blanket and 3 pillows. The sofa bed is so small for 2 persons and the sheet is dirty. Luckily that there is washing machine provided so we could clean it. There is no bath mat in the bathroom so the bathroom floor is wet after it was used. There is no heater in the room so it's not ok to stay in winter.

  • Reviewer: Vivien

    Comments: Friendly neighbourhood with local fruit stalls, meat stalls, eateries, convenience stores downstairs. Great location. MTR was a stone's throw away and tram is just a street away. Buses are available downstairs, making commuting convenient. House was clean and Mark even left some welcome drinks for us. He even went out of his way to send us extra things that we needed. Not an ounce of regret in staying here.

  • Reviewer: Claudia

    Comments: Building code was different to what was given in the email itinerary so couldn’t get into the building. Two contact numbers were provided but the host number is in the Phillipines and unreachable, second number was a Hong Kong number but not the host and hard to reach- spent 10-15mins calling and calling at 10pm (lucky I was able to borrow a phone). Apartment was not cleaned after the last guest but we didn’t realise - just thought it was a poor job (turns out the cleaner was sick and forgot, but it is the host’s responsibility to check that cleanliness is acceptable before their next guest arrives) - we used someone else’s used towels and sheets. I have photos to prove the apartment was not clean. Host sent cleaner the next morning but a communication issue with my mum meant that we didn’t realise she was there because the towels and sheets were not clean, and Mum told her it’s ok (obviously if my mum had realised we had used towels she would want clean towels). Realised the issue afterwards and said of course we want new towels and sheets (we dried ourselves with our clothes that night). Cleaner came sometime after lunch the next day, and did a good job (got new towels and sheets). Mark said he’ll give a refund for the first night for all the inconvenience and disgusting fact we used unclean towels but I have not received this yet nearly a month later. That said, some pros. Place is big by Hong Kong standards but it is sparsely furnished. The chairs we had didn’t have any legs to them. Hot water was really good. Location really good with lots of food nearby. Mark sent a cleaner at the end of our first week to give the apartment a clean (we stayed for two weeks) - that was a nice surprise (but would also be good if he let us know a cleaner will be coming). He also sent some restaurant suggestions towards the end of our stay.

    Comments: Magical place, discovering sheungwan and central district from mark's place is an amazing experience, I fully recomend him.

  • Reviewer: Rosemary

    Comments: Lovely apartment in excellent and well serviced neighbourhood. Close to public transport, markets and restaurants. I would definitely stay here again

  • Reviewer: Kimiko

    Comments: This is a great apartment. Big for Hong Kong, a kitchen, separate shower, washing machine, TV, pull-out couch, and a spacious bedroom. The roof was also an amazing place to view the city. It was very clean and had everything we needed. Mark sent us suggestions for places to eat around and there is a 7 eleven across the street. As well, there was a place to exchange money directly across the street and the MTR was two blocks away with a grocery store right next to it. This place has easy access to many things and is a beautiful place to stay. The only negatives are that there were a few things falling apart in the apartment - the shower head fell off the wall and a door to one of the closet was a little loose. These were easily worked around though and not an issue at all!

  • Reviewer: David

    Comments: This place is just the right size for a single traveller and is close to amenities and public transport. Easy to get to airport.

  • Reviewer: Greg

    Comments: Modern, clean apartment in great location. Highly recommend.

  • Reviewer: Logan

    Comments: Mark’s place was great! It’s in the perfect area of town near EVERYTHING and that rooftop has amazing views! Will absolutely stay again next time we come to HK! Thanks!!

  • Reviewer: Jiun Da

    Comments: Thank you for letting us have a wonderful two nights.

  • Reviewer: Jamie

    Comments: this unit is all about access. it’s close enough to central but not as busy as the main part of the city. during the day there are many places to buy anything you need at your doorstep. a 7-eleven is literally across the street. everyday we found an MTR closer and closer to the apartment, with the closest being to the left next to a nice coffee shop. many bars and dives in the area. i would definitely stay again. remember this is hong kong so everything is a bit smaller in size. once you get use to that, everything is pretty great.

  • Reviewer: Shoaib

    Comments: nice spacious convienenient location lovely place

  • Reviewer: Bernard

    Comments: Location was great. Easy to find and had access to both MTR and Bus. A bunch of small places to eat in the area. The apartment was good and had everything we needed.

  • Reviewer: Rebecca

    Comments: As others have said, excellent location. Everyone at the apartment complex was friendly and left us alone. There were only 2 towels for 2 people for 11 days. We ended up buying 2 more towels and detergent and utilized the washer & drying rack in the apartment for our clothes. Mark responded quickly to any questions that I had. I would recommend for anyone staying here to reach out to Mark before your flight to get the code to the apartment. High St. is 3 blocks north of the apartment and excellent for dining.

  • Reviewer: 文贤

    Comments: This is an excellent apartment. The location is great, only 15 min away from central and from the port to Macau. It’s also near the HongKong University. Quite a few restaurants and groceries around, McDonald’s and 7-11 are just across the roads. The rooms are newly decorated with sufficient furnitures. The photos are a bit confusing, those old ones should be deleted on home page. Mark makes everything ready for our arrival, the sofa bed is made and there are also chocolates and water. It’s comparatively spacious with one big bedroom and one living room. You know it’s in HongKong. It would be perfect if there is some more towels ( only two offered for our 6 days’ stay but we were pre-advised by Mark, so we are fine) and the shower head can be better positioned (the shower room is new and clean). Response from Mark is not prompt but still timely. Thanks for everything! We have a good holiday!
