8.4/10 Very Good! (1,358 reviews)
I was surprised they did not have mattress protectors/pads, just a fitted sheet on a bare mattress, which was stained. They did bring me extra sheets to layer over the mattress upon request, but suggest they consider adding waterproof mattress pads to protect their mattresses and guests. Otherwise, a comfortable stay in a great location next to the Reading Market and China town. Easy 10-20 min walk to historic sites like the town hall, the famous Love sculpture, and museums. Lots of different kinds of restaurants to choose from in walking distance - we went to Xanadu (Thai fusion) for dinner which was delicious. The parking lot next to the hotel was $40 for 24 hours. While it’s private (not owned by the hotel), this seemed to be more reasonable than other lots downtown. Considering the hotel was also more reasonably priced than other downtown hotels, even with parking the total value was still very good.
