I liked being able to walk out the door and into the streets filled with food vendors, restaurants and merchants. Hotel was clean, newly refreshed, friendly helpful staff, fast elevators. Downside was weak wifi signal in my room (upper floor at very end of hallway). I would stay here again.

Friendly staff , very close to Chinatown , 7 mins from train station , like the food and shopping . Breakfast limited choice but the taste make up for it , recommended to taste it , however coffee was not my likings . Everything were almost perfect until the night time when I took the shower , the water was not very hot and it took quite sometime before a little warm water came out though , pressure if water not that good , it would had been perfect stay if this issue was not there
