No ? Well, here's one : Young protestor maced
As well as another where they maced a senior citizen right smack in the face ! : Senior citizen maced by pepper spray

This post is a show of my support for their cause.

Stanford Hotel , Soy Street


Like I mentioned before, it's the location of this hotel that made me request for it, from the travel agent.

Look how close it is to all the famous shopping streets




Not only that, it is right smack in the middle of a food paradise much like Petaling Street. The range of which encompasses almost all segments of dining.




Easy for us to go to Tsim Tsa Shui district for free as they have a sister hotel in that area . In order to take advantage of this facility you have to book ahead first. In case the transport is full, the train station is a mere 5 minutes away by foot.




View of the hotel lobby. They've done extensive renovations. Looks nothing like the last time I stayed here.




The reception area. Staff are so trim and well groomed.






Pink orchids add a nice to touch to the modern minimalist decor




They've allocated us a room on the non smoking floor on the 8th level.

Moving towards the lift area now.




Rooms are quite small but I'm ok with that.

TV is a flat screen attached to the wall. Amenities like kettle, lights, aircond, points and hot water, are in working order.
Best part is,there is a bathtub for me to soak in at the end of the day





View from our room.





Able to shoot the city view from another angle since they gave us a corner unit this time. Love the contrast between the old and the new.
