Former tenant·just now

Great Option in HK

Pros

Lived here for 2+ years, great building and great landlord. Very minimal issues and got quick responses when there was. Was super cozy.

Cons

Had some baby roach issues and some loud(ish) neighbors, lots of kids

Former tenant·Over 3 years ago

Affordable and quiet. Management responds to issues pretty quickly

Pros

Lived here for three years. Unit was facing inner courtyard and was very quiet. Rent was reasonable. Installed security cameras after receiving security complaints. The building is close to everything midtown can offer. Pretty safe neighborhood.

Cons

They’re was some rodent issue before I moved out. Which is very common in old buildings like this. There was leaking from ceiling. But the roof was repaired within a week. Overall pretty decent management quality at this price.
