Everything was great but rooms are hot. You need better ac unit where the customers can control the ac and heater. It’s so hot and stuffy in the room. Couldn’t sleep at all.

The property is situated in a safe area, the staff was incredibly welcoming and warm (particularly Josh at the front desk) which made our trip very special. The beds and pillows were very comfortable, and the view we had from the 28 floor was fantastic!

Clean area and beautiful hotel. I loved the gym and our room was great. Staff was kind. Only issue I had was with valet parking. it was very very annoying because they recommended to order your car 20mins in advance. I waited 1 hour and 20 mins for my car. I consistently checked with the valet parking managers and they lost the keys and couldn’t update me. I elevated the issue to managers, and they comped the $92 overnight parking. Other than this, I really enjoyed my stay, but maybe order your car 30mins to 40mins in advance rather than 20. Valet parking is also very hard to find, think the website needs more information on this. Just fyi, valet parking is super super tight fit since the entrance is also the exit.

Very comfortable room.
Conveniently located and in a nice neighborhood. Walking distance to China town.
Reasonably priced. Nice coffee maker in room.
My only complaint would be that the shower floor became slippery when wet and soapy
