Le prix prohibitif sans rapport avec un confort d'à peine trois étoiles

A decent hotel with somewhat noisy rooms in a great location
Pros:

Location was great.
The bed was comfortable.
Bathroom and shower was fine - though the sink was curiously low.

Cons:

The hotel was rather noisy during night time with sounds from the hallway, elevator and strange sounds from the wall/AC. Also traffic noise was loud in my room at 6th floor.
I has asked for a room as high up as possible, but 6th was about the lowest floor with rooms (the lower ones are used for a theatre and other things).

Good location
Pros:

The central location in Union square was great, as the hotel was within walks our distance to the harbour and other attractions. The bed was also comfortable and the room was huge.

Cons:

The room was very dated, and given the price we paid I’d have expected a bit more. Biscuits and coffee were provided every morning in the lobby, but it would have been nice to have the option of breakfast.
