Mingle Place At The Eden

I had seen a few negative reviews about this place, so I was apprehensive at first, but was extremely happy with the establishment. Location was great, only a few minutes walk from the main train stations, rooms were tight, but very sufficient, good for Hong Kong, staff were very friendly and helpful, the bathroom facilities were also very good. If travelling back to Hong Kong, will definitely return here. The negative reviews I had seen were about size of the rooms, and noise from the city etc. Sure the rooms aren't as large as you would find in some suburban hotel in the USA, but for Hong Kong they were very sufficient. Air conditioning was very good, cranked up to coldest temperature and the highest fan setting felt like I was in a (lovely) blizzard compared to the heat and humidity outside. The noise levels were also very acceptable, city noise was no more than I would expect, and the noises from guests arriving late or getting up early was very minimal. The only really audible noise was from people in the hallways, but I have experienced this noise coming under the door from even super luxurious hotels, I normally dampen the sound by putting a towel against the door.

Arrived late had nowhere else to go, bed awful with plastic under sheeting. Needs refurbishing. Will try not to return.

Very good location just around the corner from several famous and historic food places. Room was small but liveable, definitely enough space to open luggage and move around comfortably, which is more than I can say for other budget guest houses in Hong Kong. Staff were friendly!
