You'll have to use public transport a lot to make that 300/290 HKD worthwhile. I find my usual usage to be around 150-250 HKD, depending on the transport option I used to/from the airport. If you want to be cheap, use the A-xx buses. HK island one-way starts from around $40HKD, which might even be close enough to your hotel that you won't need connecting transport. Out of my past 7 visits, I've only used the train 4 times (out of the total 14 one-way trips).
