Good location, walkable distance from restaurants, transport, shopping and major attractions. I can here noises from another rooms and the showers need bleach. Parking is very inconvenient you will have to walk with your suitcases for three blocks up and down the Chinatown street, the car parking is under the restaurants so smell rubbish 24/7.

The room we stayed in was not advertised in the website at all. Very disappointed in it. I expected something more new and fresh and this room was old and not what I expected to pay. If I knew what I was paying for I wouldn’t have stayed there

Daily breakfast was great, staff was always professional and helpful. The location was great with lots of restaurants and walking distance to the harbor. We were there over New Year's and they left a bottle of champagne in our room which was unexpected and very nice. The only complaint we had was that we had to ask for towels often, fresh ones weren't left in the room when they cleaned.

Worth giving it a try

Started off that we were placed into the incorrect room from what we booked and paid for but the reception crew remedied this quickly when I drew it to their attention and gave us an instant upgrade to to a suite - we were very impressed

In both rooms there was mold, housekeeping was not up to par with other similar hotels I’ve stayed at. The housekeeping offered to let me into a room I was waiting by- this felt extremely unsafe as anyone could’ve gotten into someone room. Lobby smelled horrible. The ac smelled like sewer when turned on. Lots of moist built up and mold in both showers

The cleaning doesn't happen regularly and can see dust in the bathroom. Besides that, the location was great as it's close to the shops, restaurants and public transportation.
