Chinatown

In just a few steps you are transported from busy downtown New York to the heart of China.

Bustling and brightly coloured, NYC’s maze-like Chinatown is everything you expect it to be. Dim sum and noodle restaurants are everywhere and you can shop like mad for cheap jewellery, clothing and trinkets. Grab a bubble tea and watch old men play mahjong in the park while strains of traditional music drift by. Beautiful temples house Buddha statues and a museum shows the area’s origins. Stay until dark for awesome dining with a fun karaoke sing-along afterwards.

The room was very clean. A bit smaller than I expected from the online photos. Our shower enclosure was leaking so we had to put down towels every time we showered. Otherwise it was a pretty decent stay.

The best thing about this hotel is its location. It is in a great neighborhood with some excellent outdoor space in the front oasis area and on the roof. The rooms are small but efficient. It is hard to figure out how to work the lights in the room, and there are no easy instructions. It is not a ...

Breakfast was literally not edible. They had leather disks they called sausage that were not edible. They had hashbrowns that were freezer burned and not edible. Never served bacon or other options. It was horrible.
