The property is a little old, so the condition is not as nice as some of the newer hotel. Overall its not bad, and the price is good. The location is convenient, close to subway, dining, and shopping. That's my main reason of picking this hotel.

The property is well maintained and clean. Staff is polite and courteous. I like the emphasis on the environment. The facility is very reasonably priced. The restaurants on site is surprisingly very good serving delicious and innovative menus. The location is within walking distance to the metro, shopping, and restaurants. Very convenient. I would definitely consider returning. The only drawback is the size of the bathroom sink. It is so small that it hits your head when you bend over to wash your face and water spills on the floor.

Disliked: Amenities
The location of this hotel is extremely convenient, which is why I stayed here twice—once for 5 days and another time for 6 days. My first stay was in room 2385, and my second stay was in room 2383. Room 2385 felt relatively newer, with better water pressure from the faucet, a faster-draining bathtub, and a more efficient hairdryer. However, the WiFi in this room was terrible—I’m not sure if it was just my room or a general signal issue during those days. Also another downside was the bathtub it was the narrowest I’ve ever seen in any hotel, making it very uncomfortable to use. Overall, the hotel feels a bit outdated. Aside from the great location, I wouldn’t choose this hotel again.
