Ideal location near Bart & Chinatown.
Pros:

This place is a gem! Great location , reasonably priced, sparkling clean & the staff is very friendly. The young man who handed me my luggage let me rest for a few minutes in the lounge area. Very nice of him, I wish I had caught his name. So yes book it without hesitation!

Cons:

What's there not to like,?

Clean, I would never stay here again! And expensive for the little you get!
Pros:

Hotel is actually a glorified hostel.no bathrooms or showers in the rooms. Worse yet, no elevators!
Girl at front desk was very difficult to reach, as you must call the front desk to get back into the hostel.and she suggests seemed to be elsewhere, sometimes waiting 10 to 15 minutes to get back inside!
