Know what you are expecting and you will be OK.

Hotel is as expected from the reviews. Very good stay taking cost into account.
If you want to save some money and are willing to accept the compromises I would recommend this hotel. I picked this hotel because the same weekend, just about all the hotels around doubled their prices for some event. This one did not, so I gave this hotel a try.

Compromises are:
the .location is about 3 blocks farther from the mtr,
Rooms are very small,
Closer to being a hostel,
An older hotel, but still clean, and
Bed is more firm.
So, if you know what you will be getting, like a place to get a good night sleep, and want to save some real money, go for this place.
It got my musts:
In room safe and coffee and safe.

This hotel or I should say they call apartment was designed for local clients and nor international. Their Television has only one Chinese station and when we asked them about this they said that their hotel is for locals and not designed for international tourist, Their location is something not desirable for International tourist, even the taxi driver that we rode to get there was unfamiliar and barely able to drop us off one block from where the hotel was located.

This was the second stay in this hotel for me. I liked this again. The room was pretty god much bigger then a normal Mong Kok room.

This is a great place if you’re traveling on a budget. The location is great, near a major MTR stop and lots of local places to eat. The rooms were clean and the staff was super friendly and helpful. My only real complaint was that the mattresses may be due for replacing and I felt some of the springs. But it wasn’t the most uncomfortable bed I’ve slept in either. Over all it was a very pleasant stay and I would book this hotel again if I go back to Hong Kong.

Cheap but definitely NOT nasty

I need a bed and bathroom for one night in Kowloon and this one was the closest and cheapest available.
From previous experience in HK I wasn't expecting much and was pleasantly surprised with the standard of the facilities.
It not flash, has all the basic needs and was the best sleep I'd had in days.
The bed was harder than most white fellas would be used too but I slept like a log.
AC worked, bathroom was clean, hot water with good pressure, everything was functional and well maintained.
Bottelled water, coffee and tea, fridge, TV and wifi all working to acceptable standards.

Not bad for one person stay

Small room but good enough for one person. The facilities are old but clean. (The pillow has old blood mark, see picture.)
There are desk, chair, refrigerator, safe box, cabinet etc. You have what you need.
Make sure you are aware :
- its entrance is at Maple St., not at Lai Chi Kok Rd as the address;
- you need to pay HK$500 deposit with cash or credit card at check-in, and it is refunable at check-out;
- there is no 110V outlet, and you must prepare the adapter for the HK standard power outlet;
Overall, it is not bad.

OK for its price.

For the price I cannot complain much. The location was decent. 10mins walk from Prince Edward station.

It is also quiet and the rooms is ok. Only 2 complains.

blood stained hotel towels.... I stayed for 3 nights, and had my towels replaced with room service and somehow I still got another blooded towel.. Makes me think that they don't even check and throw them. Quite a turn off.

The bed is also not the most comfortable. the size is small but for any hk apartment or hotel it is understandable. but it felt like the bed was compromised in terms of quality. It feels so airy with no springs or support. A weird feeling.

Overall, 3/5 if all the hotels surrounding are expensive, u can still go for this. Just don't expect much.

The air-conditioning was very noisy, sounded like a washing machine being on all the time. Good thing we were here over the coldest weekend in 60 years, and barely turned the air-con on. There was no heater that we could borrow, so we had to crawl under 3 comforters to keep warm. The bed, which was flushed against the wall got wet with condensation, and the front desk told us we weren't the only ones to tell them that. On the plus side, the staff were friendly and helpful, also the room was very clean. The E21 bus, which costs HKD14 a head, gets you to the airport in about 70 mins and is just a short walk from the hotel.

Comfortable hotel close to shopping/transportation

I enjoyed my stay at VP Hotel. The owner was awesome and was great with directions and giving suggestions of what to do. I was a little worried we would be far from public transportation and everything, but we lucked out. This hotel, though kinda on the outskirts, was only a 10-15min walk from the Prince Edward MRT station, and actually, when we first arrived, we got to the hotel from Mongkok station pretty quickly, with bags in tow! Enough about location, it is in a good spot. Check. The hotel looks unassuming from outside, the corner is under construction and the entrance is actually around the corner on Maple. But once inside, it's pretty nice, and small. The room, a double (2 twin beds), was not huge, which was to be expected, but actually more space than we thought. The room was very clean. There was soap, towels, and water bottles at the ready. The room had an armoire and a mini fridge. Overall, a pleasant space and experience. To balance the review, the bad things were the beds are not the most heavenly and when it is so hot, it isn't fun to walk so far to get to the hotel.

Good location , but can be improved

The location of the hotel is very convenient, about 10 to 12 minutes walk to the nearest subway station, the room we had was small, for 2 persons, with luggages, there was very little room to fully open up the luggage or to move around. And one side of the bed is against the wall. The wash room is very small, but the shower was good. As for the bed, the sheets were not changed during our stay of not a few nights. We stayed in the 8th floor, the highest, but still we can hear noises from the street with our windows closed, but this is not unusual in HK, unless one stays in a very luxury hotel.

No one should stay here!!

This was the worst place I've ever stayed. Not even cows should stay here.
The staff is cold and unreceptive. There's a gentleman there, who seems to be the owner of the hotel/father of the kids who help run the front desk- yes, the kids work there too- univiting youngsters- who do not seem really to understand customer service. The gentleman is kind and willing but was too busy, when I stayed, helping with construction on site. There was constant drilling and hammering and noise everywhere.
The rooms are small and amenities basic. In most places, toilet and bathroom facilities are clearly marked and distinct -well not in this 'hotel'. All that separates the toilet from the shower is a horrible old shower curtain- no ledge, no wall- nothing. So of course, after shower the whole area is wet and messy!!! And not even a foot towel to step on after shower. the rooms- the flooring is not carpeted. The size of the room is beyond tiny- there's really no where to leave your luggage- the closet space is a joke!!!
And then the surrounding area. The hotel may possibly be in the worst part of town. But say the area is 'what it is'- the hotel doesn't try to provide any respite from the unattractiveness outside. Please for god sake DO NOT stay here.

VP was better than I expected for the price. It was very clean and comfortable. The staff was helpful although their English was not too good. Of course for the price there were some drawbacks. The room was a bit small and the hotel lacked the plusher amenities, e.g., fitness center, variety of choices on TV (one English-language channel). The location is not particularly convenient. .It's definitely a 15 or 20 minutes walk from the Prince Edward subway station, including time to cross busy streets. (Take exit C at the subway station, turn left for 3 or 4 blocks to Lai Chi Kok Road, turn right for 3 or 4 blocks and VP is on the left side of the road with the entrance around the corner on Maple St.) There's a Wellcome grocery store and a Circle K convenience store nearby.
