"Nice property, very well priced and very clean rooms. Check in is at 3 and not very lenient about checking in early unless you pay. Maybe their could be some leniency especially if it’s only an hour early. Obviously the room was ready if you paid an additional fee they would let you in."

"The hotel is a bit old. It's great if you're looking to stay in a property with a historical aspect. Check-in was troubling.

Fine enough based on location near Chinatown

Called front desk to complain and only one worker for the whole building who was unable to take care of it until the loud people left ..."
