West Hotel woes?

fmd_good West Hotel

Stayed at the West Hotel in @HongKong last week. Honestly, the views were incredible, but the wifi was… a nightmare. Spent half my trip trying to upload photos. Anyone else have similar issues?… more

Yeah, the wifi at the West Hotel is notoriously bad. I stayed there a couple months ago and it was the same story – painfully slow and frequently dropping. I think they're just overwhelmed by the number of guests. I ended up using my mobile data most of the time, which ate into my plan pretty badly. There's no secret password, unfortunately. It's just... that wifi.

Ugh, that's a total bummer. I figured it was something like that. Mobile data is such a rip-off, especially when you're relying on it for work or something. Maybe I should just spring for a hotel with better reviews next time. Thanks for the heads-up! Saves me a headache.

Hung Hom Hustle?

fmd_good Hung Hom

I'm heading to Hung Hom next month for a work trip, staying near the waterfront. Heard it's a pretty bustling area. Anyone know the best way to navigate the crowds during rush hour? Seriously consi… more

Yeah, Hung Hom can be a zoo during rush hour. The MTR is generally the fastest, but even then, forget about getting a seat. Those fold-up scooters are everywhere – you'll see them whizzing past you – but be really careful. The sidewalks are packed, and the drivers... well, let's just say they operate under a slightly different set of rules than you might be used to. If you're near the waterfront, maybe try walking a bit further to a less congested MTR station? Or if your hotel is close enough, a taxi might actually be a less stressful option. Just factor in extra time, no matter what you choose. It's not going to be a relaxing commute.
