Very disappointing!!!
Upon arrival, person-in-charge in reception area told us that the room we booked does not have any own comfort room. In the first place, why would we booked a room without our own cr? For us to have our own c.r, we have to pay extra 200hkd! Otherwise, we`ll use the common c.r! -_- No choice but to add extra. Grr. Number 2, the room was really different from the picture we booked! really disappointing, it was too small for the 3 of us. We booked a room with 3 single beds, what they gave us was 1 double bed and 1 single bed. We barely move in the area due to its super limited space! Plus, c.r was really small plus its disgusting smell. >.< Wasted our money for not worthy room.

Chunking Mansion worst hotel
This is the worst hotel we've experience (Chungkin Mansion). Our hotel room rooms are like cage of cockroach as it is full of cockroach. Eeewww. The bathroom are too small, the bedsheets smells like used already for a month, the fridge are very messy, the aircon & blower is not working, the room is too small. The receptionist are not accommodating. Cannot understand english and cannot speak english. Aside from that they charge us another tax which is 1050 HK dollar and when we were asking why they got angry. Overall experience is worst. Negative Five Star.

Too much bed
These rooms in the Chung King Mansions are always rather spartan, but for the price it usually doesn't matter. However, we had booked two twin beds, and were given a twin and a full size bed, in a room that was designed only for two twins at the most. So there was no room between the beds, and you had to crawl onto the beds to get around. The second night we were moved to a two-twin room, which was more what we were expecting.

Horrible service, smelly room and extra charges
This was a pretty bad experience. Waste of money honestly. We arrived at about 9:30 am and their check-in time is 2 pm. We asked to keep our 2 bags at the reception till the check-in for which we were charged 30 HKD per piece. Secondly, at the time of check-in, we were charged an extra 20% cleaning fees (70 HKD). The room was smelly and horrible, the double bed we booked can only sleep 1 person. The staff unfriendly and said - this is not five star. Don't expect a good service. No toiletries except towels provided - need to purchase soap etc. from the hotel. Rip off!
