Good and bad

The electrocic/app key situation was problematic. When we tried to get it resolved, nothing came of it. There is no front desk person and the water took 10+ min to warm up in the shower one of the days. Rooms were super cute. The art was awesome and the bed was comfortable. The location was ideal and the downstairs bar was fun and friendly.

Disliked: Amenities
This is a no employee hotel ( code entry by app you download) right at the gate to Chinatown. Every room is artist painted differently and my room was black and white with ropes hanging all over as decor there was only a faint bedside light and two tiny pin lights, nicely redone bathroom. It is so small, dark and old that you can’t read or even have a place to put down a cup. Tv and internet ok. It worked for me because I am a very short artistic type and travel alone. Only a un hosted Kerrigan downstairs ( no food) . It is a fun location but check what room you are getting, this one was terrible but I think some might be nice, best for single traveler without mobility issues, steep staircase and awkward elevator. You could have a good vacation here without a car because it is very central to all of the city and transportation. You have to have an open mind, definitely not a typical experience.

I liked the artist vibe and location. It looked clean overall, just a bit musty smelling. No fan. What upset me was the noise and base from the bar that’s connected . I didn’t sleep well even w ear plugs on. The last night I turned up the volume of a YouTube thunderstorm and that helped a little.

Disliked: Staff & service, amenities
The staff was nice but she was one person, a cleaning lady. My room was above the bar so I could hear every bass line from every song until 3am each night. That's when the music from the Irish Bank next door didn't overcome the music from the bar below. (The bar is amazing though). Just not so quiet. I only found 1 cockroach on my final day so I count this as a victory.

The in room refrigerator was set to the coldest setting which caused a nice bottle of wine and some food to freeze. Very loud banging (maybe construction) at 6 am for at least 2 hours. No personnel to check you in or out and no room service either.
