The hotel was okay overall. It was in a good location within walking distance of shops and restaurants. The staff was excellent—friendly, welcoming, and very helpful throughout our stay. However, the lack of air conditioning was a major downside. We had to sleep with the windows open, which made it difficult to get a good night’s sleep because we could hear other guests outside.

For the price of the room the stay was good. Until we saw the clear chair next to the desk. There was white and clear stains (I know what we're thinking) on the seat part, along with some on the floor. Luckily the bed and bathroom it's self was good.

Clean and renovated hotel with a fantastic location - right next door to Chinatown and the Financial District with tons of restaurants nearby. They have a commons room area in the lobby where it feels a little bit like a hostel and you can sit at picnic tables and eat breakfast. Our only complaint was that there is no thermostat inside the rooms and the temperature is controlled remotely. There is apparently a physical shutoff if you turn a knob on the side of the heater, but our shutoff didn't work. One night, the heating was blasting and we had to sleep with the windows open, which was kinda terrible. Otherwise, I'd totally stay here again for the location and the cheap rates.

Overall, the hotel was really good it was super clean, had a bar, and even offered free coffee, which was a nice touch. However, the noise levels were a downside. We could hear people from our bedroom , especially upstairs, and even the TV from the next room.
