i've been doing research on accomodations in HK. found Mei Mei Motel Sincere House, 83 Argyle Street, Mongkok, Hong Kong and thought of sharing it here as it looks clean and very affordable, besides situated in Sincere Hse is a better alternative compared to mirador or chungking mansion. a lot of other budget inns are here too like dragon hostel, king wah hostel and etc.

take a look at some pics i got from a thai and philiphino forum :

i think there are a few more great ones out there but they are not so commercialized. another one : http://www.yiufaiguesthouse.com/accommodation.html

Will be HK this coming weekend. Anyway, just wanna share tis hostel http://www.cleveryear.com/ that I will be staying . M a budget traveller. Is clean n just basic and convenient.

The 8th floor of Sincere Building is a band studio.

So from morning to night around 10 to 11pm, very loud drumming.

And the Mongkok streets are very noisy, the buses and taxi and cars and people 24/7 noises.

Unlike Malaysia where no buses and taxis and few lorries and trucks at night.

The worst part is they have all the rights to horn at full force throughout the night to wake us up.

Hmmm looks economy but nice

I dont seem to have those probs u mentioned

Stayed just beside Temple street

Cant hear anything from street. Cars are minimal if any during the nite esp after 11. The only problem I faced is those mainland China tourist next door. They cant seem to shut their mouth even if its midnite. & they have to talk till the whole floor can hear

Is it cheap to purchase a mobile phone in HK?

mobile phone in HK nothing much difference from M'sia.....suggest you to buy at M'sia for warranty purpose. so long never heard of northasian.....where is she btw?

She has started her own forum and facebook on HK, very informative

good thing for her....anyways, anybody currently at HK spotted me wearing 'I LOVE MALAYSIA' black T-shirt hanging around at YMT, Edward & causeway bay this evening?

Plan to visit HK this year end December.....
Lucky i found this thread.
thanks to TS and other members that share their info here...


and the branded clothe there cheaper than malaysia ?

U could take the current currency conversion as M'sian ringgit gain against HK dollar for the past few months but I don't see it as any significant big amount when comparing the price of branded in between. The people in HK & China are spending for luxury like drinking water.....

haha
thanks for the reply.
