Good. I wouldn’t work from home here.
Pros:

Good location. Nice place.

Cons:

The wifi occasionally was slow and didn’t work fast enough. This was annoying for me because of the nature of my work. I need high-speed wifi for trading.

Good location, cold showers
Pros:

The location was a great walking distance from the piers, and right next to China town.

Cons:

The showers were cold every night. Thankfully the first night, maintenance was there to fix it. However on the second night, the lady at the desk was not very helpful and didn’t help.

There are also no heaters in the rooms
