Excellent place. The room was small but had optimum usage of space. Only one issue was that coffee is not available on the ground-floor restaurant after 3 PM and as there is no electric kettle in the room, you have to go out for coffee after 3 PM. Except this, everything was great.

The hotel is located in the heart of Chinatown and easy to walk to other places. But the area around it has lots a panhandlers. The parking was not easy to find on the website. But is located around the corner from the hotel. The hotel itself was fine. The room was small, but clean and had everything one really needed.
