great central location and friendly staff
friendly staff comfortable beds luggage storage
I found the staff very friendly. They granted a late check-out request. our room had comfortable beds and the location was near tram lines and chinatown. i appreciated the luggage storage at the concierge desk. My suitcases waited in my room after check-in.
The bathroom door did not close properly. This offered little privacy while sharing.

decent stay overall
helpful staff great location damp smell little soundproofing
the staff were accommodating. they helped with our luggage when the lifts were being renovated, i was very grateful. the location was also good, near trams and food.
the exhaust fan in the bathroom wasn't connected, so the bathroom got steamy after every shower. i also noticed a damp smell in the room. i wondered if there was mould present. there seemed to be little soundproofing, as sounds from outside and other rooms were easily heard.

a satisfactory stay
convenient location shopping center food options ill-fitting sheets poor housekeeping
the location was convenient. it was directly across from a shopping center, and i found plenty of food options nearby. darling harbor was also within a short, ten-minute walk.
the sheets did not properly fit the bed, i noticed. housekeeping did not remake the bed , so i often woke up sleeping directly on the mattress without a protector.
