I find Mirador 'mansions' an OK place to stay in Hong Kong, and prefer MAN HING LUNG HOTEL
Tel: 23118807 & 27220678 where you can get a single room, admittedly quite small, with air-con, TV, toilet, shower for 120 -150 HK$ - less than $20 US.
The location is good for visa agencies, Indian food, the Star Ferry and exploring HK.
Steve is the man mhlhotel@hkstar.com
They have free wireless internet, accept credit card. They are on the 14th floor.

Friends:
Will be on a 5-day stopover in HK in mid-December enroute Bangkok->Tokyo.
Looking for intel on budget lodging: hostel ok, but not dorm. Shared bath no problem.
Also, likewise for Macau.
And finally: what to do of interest in both places (besides gamble).
Thanks in advance,
- Peter
