“In my opinion, its modern design and compact, efficient rooms are a smart choice for travelers looking for an urban base. The rooftop bar is a standout, giving excellent views, and you can't beat the location right by the Metro. While Chinatown's immediate surroundings can be a bit rough around the edges, the hotel's easy access to transport and major attractions makes it a worthy option.”
