Because of a highway that runs alongside the harbor, request a room on a high floor.

Fodor's "Little wonder this upscale YMCA is a popular budget choice: it sits next to the mighty Peninsula and across from the city's three biggest museums on Tsim Sha Tsui's harborfront."
Insight Guides "Its room rates do not follow those found in your typical YMCA, but the Hong Kong Y is nonetheless one of the best bargains in the city."
Rough Guide "The best-located semi-cheap hotel in town. Facilities include indoor pools, fitness centre and squash court."
DK Eyewitness "You may not find better value anywhere else in Hong Kong. The harborside setting is spectacular, many rooms boast fine views and all are reasonably spacious."
Lonely Planet "If you can manage to book a room at this fabulously located hostel/hotel, you’ll be rewarded with professional service and excellent exercise facilities."
