Chinatown Travellers Home

The bathroom and room is so clean. But the bed is not so sturdy.

You’re in for a shocking time. Never have I experienced more electric shocks in a place I’ve stayed before. Every touch was a shock. But what shocked me the most was the shocking lack of amenities on offer. Nothing is provided except two towels. We upgraded our room at electrifying speed. How you ask? When we arrived we were told that to put our bags in the room early we’d need to pay, and were told we should upgrade our room to one with a private bathroom. This was all well and good, however it did feel like the price was made up spot, a spark of the attendants imagination one might say. The attendant then came back that night to collect the money. We informed her that the room was shocking. We were told it was “electro magnetic blanket”, as such we asked for a new one, and got the “ok I’ll be back” ~ needless to say she never returned. The next few days were a myriad of house people energetically arguing. Doors slamming, beds scratching and fights magnanimously occurring at all hours of the night, quite impressive really. It’s not all bad. There was a cooler and microwave to hand if needed and the apartment is close to the shops and downtown. Would I stay again, probably not? Overall I guess 1.3/10? Bit hard to recommend, but at least I wasn’t sleeping outside? Overall just a bit shocking really.

The hotel is well located and very clean, which is appreciated. However, I had a bad experience during my stay. At 4:20 AM, some suspicious people knocked on my door, waking me up. I also heard them knocking on other doors in the hallway. It was disturbing and ruined part of my experience. A shame, because the hotel has potential...
