Modern hotel with easy convenience. Only thing that was annoying was that the water from the shower soaked the floor outside when when I called lobby to request more towels I never got them and had to call multiple times to get them.. also loud construction going on outside in the morning

The hotel is close to everything. Staff was nice. Downtown vibes. My room was small and quaint and clean. My view was not that much to brag about it was facing a corner and walls but I was fine for just a night stay. Would I recommend? Sure. It is walking distance to restaurants, transportation, etc., etc.

The room was very small, and while the location is right next to Union Square, the street noise was unbearable. There were many homeless people around and the area felt dirty and unsafe. Honestly, I would not recommend staying here.

Liked: Staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
The check-in staff were really lovely and polite, and they kindly accommodated my request to store my medication in their fridge as my room didn’t have one, which I really appreciated. The room itself was clean, modern, and very comfortable – just perfect for a couple of nights. The location is also excellent, within walking distance of the train station, public transport, shopping, and plenty of places to eat. Overall, a great stay and I’d happily return.

This was a nice property to stay at. It doesn't offer much, such as dining, etc., on site, but it has plenty of other things around it to try, and that's within walking distance. There was a small smell where I was located -- on the top floor -- in the hallway. And I think one of the staff members could've been a tad more informative on how the door system worked, but that's all minor things.
