I was delighted with my stay here and would stay again given the incredible location. Couldn't quite give it 5 stars in any area though, even given the good rate. My mother and I stayed in a windowless 3-person room. The room was barely big enough to hold 1 queen bed and 1 single - no gap between them. That's fine (though anyone not on the outer edge of the single has to crawl in and out), but there's also no place to open luggage other than flat on the floor, where it blocked both the only easy access to the bed AND blocked the door from opening. So, a nuisance. Bathroom slider door didn't work well and the bathroom fan was very noisy. Beds were very clean and comfortable, floor clean too. Bathroom was decently clean (toilet area great, shower and sink meh). AC was great! My biggest complaint was poor ventilation. There were times that a really bad smell came up, like cleaning products plus restaurant fishiness, and of course there's no way to air the room out. We arrived quite late due to a delayed flight. I couldn't find any way to communicate with the hostel but online said there was reception 24/7. There was no one downstairs (reception is on 6th floor inside, but there's usually someone hanging out by the ground level entrance). Restaurant workers cleaning up found us the right guy eventually, though he seemed unhappy about it and was frankly rude. Reception staff otherwise were pleasant. Lobby area has instant coffee, filtered water, and laundry.

Very good location in china town it was fun walking around the area. Room was very clean and there is a kitchen and lounge in lobby with games couches and tables which was nice while waiting to go to airport. It is also a restaurant but they help direct you to the hotel. Highly recommend

Convenient for walking around because it is in the heart of Chinatown. The staff are friendly and provide good service. I stayed in a room without a window. The room was clean enough. In the room there was a TV cabinet, bed, towels, but there was no refrigerator, table, chairs for sitting and no soap or shampoo. There was the sound of water from outside the room from time to time. If you come to stay, I recommend a room with a window, which should be more airy and comfortable.
