Hotel right near union square and within easy walking distance of Chinatown. Beds were comfortable and large tv was nice. It was a nice surprise to have housekeeping and fresh towels after only one night. If in town again, we would stay here again!

I stayed one night with my sister for a short city trip. The room was very comfortable and we really like the interior design of the room, lobby and bar area. There is a lot more character than your typical brand name hotel.

Love the uniqueness and theme of this boutique hotel. Almost all of our dining and breakfast restaurants were within two blocks of our hotel! Shout out to Mandy Fong, for using her own personal cell phone to book passage for us on big bus tours when our cell phones were not cooperating!! 👍

Terrible customer service - never again!

I tried calling multiple times to discuss my reservation and ended up on hold for long periods of time, then the call would get dropped. I called six separate times, left on hold indefinitely multiple times, several dropped calls and still with no success in answering my inquiry. Never again will I book at this hotel.
