The one-bedroom apartment with a pretty balcony

6 kinds of affordable Airbnb in Hong Kong for the budget travelers
While it does not look like much from the pictures, this apartment is highly rated due to other selling points: its convenient location and the nicely-decorated balcony. The apartment is located in a busy area but it is nice and quiet since it is tucked right at the end of the building. Places that are easily accessible from the apartment are Mong Kok MTR Station, Ladies Market, Sneakers (Fa Yuen) Street and Argyle Centre. While the apartment may just be a place to retreat to for the night, light cooking is also possible here.

The bright and spacious flat with three bedrooms

This tastefully furnished three-bedroom flat is spacious by Hong Kong standards. Two of the bedrooms have king-sized beds, the other one has a double bed, and the common room has a sofa bed. Altogether, eight people can share this home during their trip. As with the other apartments in the Mong Kok area, shopping and dining options are mere steps away. Among others, you will find streetside stalls selling fried seafood, fruits and veggies. Do bear in mind that this apartment is on the fourth floor of a building with no lift, so those with heavy luggage might struggle a bit.

This cute little studio apartment along the famous Nathan Road has touches of greenery to add life to the modern space. While it is a studio, the space is compartmentalised into a bedroom, living room, kitchen, and bathroom. It also comes with air-conditioning, a fridge, a washing machine, and fast WiFi. This is one of the units of the Mirador Mansion and it is located on the tenth floor. Staying here will put you just minutes away from the Avenue of Stars, the Science Museum, malls like Miramar, Miramall and The One, as well as Knutsford Terrace where pubs and bars are aplenty. Getting to other parts of Hong Kong is convenient too as there is an entrance to Tsim Sha Tsui MTR Station just outside the building.
