The room was a prison cell. The open floor space was 1 sq meter; just enough for the door to swing in. Bed was enclosed on all sides by walls. The 1 window looked out onto the concrete wall of the next building, close enough to touch. Bathroom is 4'x3': shower, toilet, sink altogether with a broken water heater.
There's some sort of machinery upstairs rattling away all night. Only at night. During the day it was mostly kids screaming in the hall.
Ashoka is on the 13th floor of a large multipurpose building. I walked those stairs at least once a day because the elevator was broken or so busy that nobody can get on. Expect a 10 minute wait for the elevator on the ground floor.
The front desk was occupied about 25% of the time. This will come up later.
When I checked in, I paid $100 HKD for a deposit on the keycard. When I left, there was nobody at the front desk to give me my deposit back. I put the keycard on the desk and called them later.
When I contacted them later about getting a refund. They said 'no problem.' But the refund never came. I contacted them again and they said they would get back to me. They didn't. I contacted them again and they claimed I had received my deposit back. I assured them I had not. They then told me that they had security camera footage of me receiving my deposit back! I told them to send it along! I'd love to see it!! They stopped responding. I never got that deposit back.
So, not only is it shoddy, they ripped me off, too!
