East Asia Hotel

This is one of Macau's better choices for backpacker accommodations in the heart of the city (I've seen some pretty grim hotels and guesthouses in this category), located near the Inner Harbour just off Avenida de Almeida Ribeiro in an area filled with local color and atmosphere. Some of that local color extends to a room just off the lobby where I sometimes see a bevy of beauties awaiting phone calls or customers, which may admittedly be a bit too atmospheric for some (maybe that's why the hotel brochure promises that "your nights with us will be the most enjoyable"). Still, the 70-some-year-old hotel features a polite staff and large, perfectly fine rooms with clean, tiled bathrooms and complimentary Chinese tea. The least expensive rooms are windowless and a bit depressing. Best are rooms on top floors offering good views, including some of the Inner Harbour.
