After reading all the negative reviews about how Chungkung Mansion hotel guests had to wait very long before they could board the next lift, I avoided and booked for a room at nearby Mirador Mansion. To my surprise, when i requested to hold my luggage for a little while more after the check-out time, one of the receptionist said that since I would be staying for 4 consecutive nights, she would ‘upgrade’ my room so as to get the free luggage holding. Thinking it was a good deal, i agreed. To my horror, the room was so called upgraded to their subsidiary room at ChungKung Mansion.
Room condition was bad. Aircon that stink and were noisy. The whole room smelt of dirt. The ventilation fan did not help much. The bed didn’t look like it was cleaned. Best of all, TV WAS NOT WORKING!. Thinking it would be a hassle to change again (you got to walk back to Mirador Mansion and wait for the lift for another half hour, i gave up and stayed on.
Room service for making up the room was terrible too. I think out of the 4 nights, they only cleaned up my room once. And by clearing, they only cleared the bins. thats all. Bed same, grime same.
Lastly. check in/out queue was terribly long and I couldnt quite understand their accent. Best to avoid despite being cheap.
