Frommer's Review
This is the best-known guesthouse in Chungking Mansion, due primarily to its location in A Block, with front desks and lobbies on both the fourth and fifth floors. Rooms are dreary, dark, and depressing, with wood paneling, worn carpets, and ancient tiled bathrooms (ask for a "deluxe" room facing Nathan Road; though noisier, they are brighter and thus a tad more cheerful). The staff tends to be unconcerned and gruff. Still, you might want to try this place first before tackling the elevator or stairs to check out the guesthouses on the upper floors.

Frommer's ranks every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment it reviews for quality, value, service, amenities, and special features using a star-rating scale, an expression of the strong compare-and-contrast opinions that are a brand hallmark.
Other ratings provide stars based primarily on price and amenities; the Frommer's star rating is meant to quantify the kind of intangible, experiential elements that help travelers make informed decisions.
The "baseline" recommendation is zero stars--every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment that Frommer's chooses to review is recommended; otherwise, we simply wouldn't include it.
