Hi I am trying to find a nice serviced apartment. I am planning to stay for 3 months as a tourist so I don't need to worry about commuting for work or school or anything like that. However one thing that I do need is a reliable internet connection because I will be studying online at my Australian university. I have lived in HK before and I am currently here until mid-May so I can check out apartments before I rent. I am planning to rent from August-October.

Does anyone have any suggestions of serviced apartments in my budget range on HK Island? I can extend my budget to $20k per month but that is absolute maximum because I am an unemployed student so my budget is limited. The apartment must be clean.

I have looked at a few, has anyone heard of 218 apartment, studiostudio, urban cube, empire studio and city loft? I have read very mixed reviews about the smaller claustrophobic studio apartments like city loft.

Also, if I wanted an apartment for the beginning of August, when roughly would I have to have it booked by before it would become hard to find accommodation?

Thank you for help.
