You get what you pay for. If you expect a hotel with someone carrying your luggage to the second floor, you are in the wrong place, though in my case the frontman was nice enough to just do that out of courtesy. Nice guy! Otherwise, it is an upper-class youth hostel with common facilities. The pods are a great feature and I like them. Even with my 1.85, no problem. Considering that many hotel rooms in Chinatown have no windows this is a good deal.
