great location! a block up the street to the left is little Italy and to the right, Chinatown. the hotel offered free bicycles which were sitting in the lobby (adjacent a nice little library/reading lounge). everyone that we interacted with that worked there were easy to approach, friendly and chill, while still managing to be helpful. our room was a very nice and modern efficiency. part of the wall gives way to glass allowing people in the bedroom to see inside the shower/bathroom and vice versa. there are however drapes (on both sides) which completely cover the glass providing the best of both worlds. room also had a nice little balcony with bench. large enough to comfortably for 3 to 4 individuals. all in all this was a great stay and I would recommend it to anybodu wanting to know.
