I stayed in the hotel for four nights, from June 15 to June 19. As for location, overall it was great, the hotel is near everything - the bus stop is right in front of the hotel doors, the Jordan MTR station is just around the corner, walk a couple of blocks and you're at the Bowring Street Market. Walk further from Bowring and you're at Temple Road. Park Lane is also near, walk a few blocks from the hotel's entrance and you're there. Needless to say, the Nathan Rd area is very well lit, so going around at night shouldn't be much of a problem.
For those on tight budgets, convenience stores are in the area, there are about 2 7-Eleven's that are within walking distance, and a couple of Circle K's as well. Small Chinese restaurants are in the area too, if you want the whole authentic Chinese-cooked food experience. :-)
The rooms, although small, are very clean, comfortable and well lit. The airconditioning works well, making the room even more comfortable. As expected, the room's bathroom is small, it was rather difficult to move around, especially when you're in a hurry to go somewhere. The room that I got didn't have windows though, aside from the frosted-glass panels in the bathroom.
The staff are very friendly, always ready to answer questions and entertain requests.
I didn't plan on staying inside the hotel room for long, I was there to sleep, take a shower, and keep my shopping safe. Shamrock provided all that, so it was all good. Next time I visit HK, I'd definitely stay in Shamrock.
