Great location, good bed, could be cleaner
Pros:

Excellent location in Chinatown. Very comfortable bed, good aircon and shower was good. The room was dark, which we like.

Cons:

The bathroom area could have been cleaner. Generally, the room could have done with more cleaning. Weird set up where my security cars opened the front door as well as the hotel next door… which also has the same name!

Super super basico
Pros:

El personal es magnífico, íbamos con retraso y el recepcionista nos esperó fuera ya de su turno a qué llegáramos.
La ubicación es genial, en todo el mercado de Chinatown

Cons:

El baño se inundó el primer día. El ascensor estuvo roto los 3 días. Vimos ratas por las escaleras. Las habitaciones sin ventanas son un auténtico zulo

Good location nice staff clean rooms. Thank you Karen!
Pros:

We liked the view from our room and the comfortable bed. We also liked Karen’s assistance in sorting out our extension for an extra night, for which she let us stay in our original room for the whole duration of our stay, without extra expense as it was a better room.

Cons:

Our aircon stopped working, however this was fixed promptly by Karen within a few hours.
