Skylark Hostel

I am a 72-year old woman who was travelling alone. Before my arrival, I was a bit concerned about having booked a room in a hotel located in Chung King Mansions, given the reputation of the building. The building was as bad as expected but I felt safe in spite of the motley group of people hanging around at the entrance and the sometimes long wait for the lift. The hotel itself was superb for its price range. I had booked a room at Hotel Skylark but ended up in Hotel Skycity that belongs to the same organization. The hotel room itself was spotless, the room was cleaned every day and a new towel provided. The air conditioning worked perfectly, and so did the hot water heater. The WiFi signal was strong. There was a hair dryer and a safe in the room; I was told that I could use the fridge and the microwave at the hotel entrance.
