I stayed in Hong Kong for a few days and felt that shopping was too tiring. I chose Benson on the recommendation of a local Chinese tour guide. The price was indeed cheaper. But sad things happened. The sanitary conditions were average and the scenery was average. I thought it would be new after being renovated, but the room was still very old and had peeling. The swimming pool was too simple. I had no choice but to play outside except for sleeping. It is worth praising that the location is good and convenient for shopping.

The room facilities and location are all OK, but the noise of taking out the trash in the early morning disturbed my sleep. Also, the bar across the street was still making loud noises in the middle of the night on Saturday.

Even though we arrived at 6am, they let us check into our room❗️The front desk staff were friendly. The location is great, within walking distance of the reef terminal and cafes❗️
There was a laundry, but there was one washer and one dryer on the 4th floor, and they charged $4 each, cash only.

We booked for three nights. The door lock broke on the second night and we couldn't open it at first. We were so cold after coming back from the rain. We waited outside for the hotel to open the door, but we couldn't lock it. On the second night, it was too late and it was inconvenient to move to another room. The door was not locked and we didn't feel safe at night. On the third day, we had to move to the 8th floor, which was very troublesome. What I found unbelievable was that their lock broke, which caused us a lot of inconvenience. From beginning to end, the hotel didn't say sorry, and didn't even apologize, as if it was our problem and had nothing to do with them. The service was terrible.
