Wow! This hotel is a true gem. The location is amazing, close to everything you need, especially being in the vibrant SOF Chinatown area. The rooms are lovely, although having a dirty toilet at the end of the hallway was a bit off. The service was exceptional with a staff that goes above and beyond. Dining here was a delight with delicious Mediterranean dishes. The facilities were top-notch, making my stay all the more enjoyable.

The hotel is conveniently located close to China Town and the Financial District, offering easy access to both areas. The selection of rooms includes some options with bathrooms, although there was a dirty toilet at the end of the hallway. The dining experience featured grits but had some drawbacks, and the facilities were rated as decent overall.

I found the hotel to be conveniently located in the heart of the financial district, making it easy to access everything I needed. The rooms were comfortable, but I was disappointed to find a dirty toilet at the end of the hallway. The service was friendly, and the location felt very secure. The dining experience, while offering risotto, left something to be desired. The facilities were decent overall, with room for improvement.

I found this hotel to be situated perfectly on 4th & Market, making it convenient to reach both the financial district and Chinatown. The room I stayed in had a bathroom at the end of the hallway which was not very well kept, but the selection was nice. The service provided during my stay was top-notch. However, the dining options were lacking, offering only Spanish food. Despite the minor drawbacks, the facilities were impressive, and overall, it offered good value for money.

The hotel is conveniently located in a high-security area, perfect for exploring Chinatown and downtown. The rooms offer a variety of bathroom options but need better maintenance. The service is lacking attention to detail. The dining experience is unique with ShabuShabu available, and the facilities are well-equipped.
