If you like experiencing the the vibe of the city, this is your perfect spot. Walkable from the train station you will state right next to Chinatown, I vibrant are in the city. The hotel is very clean and kind of mother but still with a warm touch. They are that type of self check in/out type of place. The only reason I’m not giving them a 5 star is because they don’t provide drinkable water in the room and they charge $8 for an small bottle.
