Room was at an affordable rate. Downtown Chinatown area was very close by so you could walk from the hotel to shop end eat at a variety of establishments. With there being no elevator, getting a 3rd floor room was a bit tiresome going back and forth especially with how tight the stairway was. Walls were very thin so I pretty much heard my neighbors on the opposite end of the hall of the same floor and nearly all the commotion outside. There was only 1 worker at the front desk at all times and they weren't too helpful when it came to knowing parking accommodations. I'd recommend this property if you're in town for the weekend and didn't bring your own vehicle as parking is either at a nearby parking garage, a communal parking lot, or utilizing a 3rd party app to park your car overnight. All the rooms share a kitchen and fridge so that can be a big turnoff for people who intend to bring in leftovers or preparing food while staying.

Easy access to downtown and Chinatown. The hotel was lovely and if you grew up in these kind of communities you’ll be a ok. However don’t go in expecting a standard hotel experience! There were certainly stains on the wall and perhaps mold in the showers. But the bed was soft and the location great and the front desk staff lovely.

Fine for the price.

This is a place totally in flux. For what I paid. Amazing location. It was a fine room. But super budget. My room was cleanish but the sheets were tattered, the bathroom was rough, but this is definitely a property where they are making an effort. Excited to see the future for them.

0 out of 5 stars would not recommend

well... there was no elevator to get to the upper levels, and the stairwells were so narrow that if someone was going the opposite direction as you one of you had to back up to another level to allow one of you to get through at a time. The room was not clean. there was probably an inch of dirt on the baseboards and there were remnants of food under the bed from a previous guest. The mattress pad was stained by lord knows what. I wish I could make this stuff up and I should have taken photos but it was room 208. When I ran the water in the bathroom the ceiling leaked onto the floor. The tv did not work the first night, (they did fix that) there was also no parking available at this hotel you had to park in a lot a ways away or get lucky and find a street parking spot.

A good spot, if needed.

I appreciated the room. Nowhere do I recall seeing that it doesn't have an elevator, so isn’t accessible, and the front desk staff did not assist with wifi or how to use the heating in the room. In the morning I saw that one of the MANY papers they had on the front desk mentioned the wifi, but again, no mention of it by the front desk staff the night before. I had to look up the heating system online to figure out how to turn it on and use the remote for it. A cheat sheet would have been nice for people less savvy. The room itself was fine. There were burn marks on the curtain and the desk looked rough, but generally speaking it was a room to fall asleep in. If you’re looking to stay a night, you’re probably fine. However, if you have even a weekend stay planned, you can do better.
