Villa Tong Keng

I paid $65 USD for one night at this hotel, and honestly, it shouldn’t cost more than $20. I chose it because it was the cheapest option I could find in Macau, but it was a letdown. If you’re staying for more than one night, I strongly recommend spending a bit more for a better hotel. The place is extremely outdated, and the room had a noticeable cigarette smell. There are ventilation openings near the ceiling that let in both noise and conversations from outside, so I kept waking up throughout the night. On the positive side, the bed and sheets were perfectly clean and odor-free, which was a relief. Communication was a challenge – the staff don’t speak any English at all, so you’ll need a translator app to get by. Overall, it’s a bare-minimum option that didn’t live up to the price.

Good enough for a weekend
